Explanation
Volume of each pad
Stereo position of each pad
Minimum volume of each pad
This lets you increase the volume of the softest hits while preserving the volume of the strongest
hits. This can make it easier to hear ghost notes on the snare or legato notes on the ride cymbal.
Maximum volume of each pad
This lets you decrease the volume of the strongest hits while preserving their nuances.
* This is available only for pads that support digital connection and for input from the MIDI IN
connector.
Drum kit volume
Pedal hi-hat volume
Cross-stick volume
Balance between open and close volume
Lower values decrease the volume of the hi-hat when played while open, relative to the volume
when played while closed. Higher values increase the volume of the hi-hat when played while
open, relative to the volume when played while closed.
