Adjusting the Sensitivity of a Pad or Kick Trigger Unit (TRIG SENS)
This parameter adjusts the sensitivity of a pad or Kick Trigger Unit. Higher values will result in higher
sensitivity (setting range: 1–16). When external pads are connected, you should adjust the relative sensi-
tivity between the external and on-board pads so as to provide a balanced feel for the entire drum kit.
