Adjusting the Pad Sensitivity

Because the following settings are automatically set to the
appropriate values for each pad when you specify the trigger type
(p. 35), there is normally no need for you to edit them.
You can edit these settings if you want to make finer adjustments,
or if you want to use an acoustic drum trigger.

Explanation
You can adjust the sensitivity of the
pads to accommodate your personal
playing style.
Increasing this value increases the
sensitivity, so that even soft strikes on
the pad are sounded at high volume.
Decreasing this value decreases the
sensitivity, so that even strong strikes
on the pad are sounded at low volume.
Adjusts the balance between the force
of striking the rim or edge and the
loudness of the sound.
If you increase this value, even soft
strikes on the rim are sounded at high
volume. If you decrease this value, even
strong strikes on the rim are sounded
at low volume.
This is available for pads that support
rim shots.

Adjusting the Hi-Hat Settings

If you are using a V hi-hat, adjust the offset on the TD-50.
This is necessary in order to correctly detect open/close operations
and pedal movement.
Reference
5 For details on how to adjust the offset, refer to "Making Hi-
hat Settings" (p. 11).
5 Make detailed adjustments to the parameters as necessary.
For details, refer to "Data List" (PDF).

Making Detailed Adjustments for the Trigger

Because the following settings are automatically set to the
appropriate values for each pad when you specify the trigger type
(p. 35), there is normally no need for you to edit them.
Edit these settings only if you want to make detailed adjustments to
the pad's sensitivity, signal detection, and strike location detection.
