This is the main menu where you can select kits or select
individual triggers to edit within the kit.
To view the Kit menu, press Kit.
To select a kit, do one of the following:
•
Press F3/Preset to choose from your preset
kits or F4/User to choose from the user kits
on your SD card.
Turn the data dial to scroll through the list
(the current kit name is shown at the top of
the page). After you stop moving the data
dial, the kit will load automatically.
Your Strike module can load large amounts of
high-quality samples for an extremely realistic
playing experience—and you don't have to
wait until it's done loading to start playing. For
some of these larger kits, you can start playing
immediately as the drum module continues to
load samples "in the background", shown by
the Streaming indicator.
•
Press F1/List to choose from a list of
available kits.
Press F3/Preset to choose from your preset
kits or F4/User to choose from your user kits.
Use the cursors to switch between the kit
categories (left panel) and kits (right panel).
Turn the data dial to scroll through the list.
After you stop moving the data dial, the kit
will load automatically.
If you select a kit category in the list and then
return to the main Kit menu, you'll then be
viewing the kits in that category only.

Important: If you edit a preset kit and then save it,
the saved kit will be stored onto your SD card, while
the original preset kit remains unchanged on the
module's internal memory. You must have your SD
card inserted into the SD card slot in order to save
