The snare drum may need some reverb to give it a more spatial sound.
Tap Effects at bottom of the screen so the first square under it is lit to view the Insert Effects tab. Press the pad
with your snare drum sound to select it.
To add an effect:
1. Double-tap the desired slot. A list of effects will appear.
2. Swipe up or down to move through the list.
3. To load an effect, double-tap it. Alternatively, tap it once and then tap Select or push the data dial. Let's try
Reverb Medium.
4. To close the list, tap Close.
To adjust the effect's parameters, tap the pencil icon.
To empty the effect slot, tap the trash can icon. Switch the effect on or off by tapping the On/Off button for the slot.
