Selecting the Trigger Setup
Explanations about this display is described in the Quick Guide section on page 22.
NOTE
• Keep in mind that each number in the display corresponds to the number of the Trigger Input jack printed at the top of the front
panel. Above each number, the status of the trigger signal received from the pad is shown in real time.
Selecting the Pad Type
From this display, you can set the type of pad or drum trigger connected to the Trigger Input jack. Make sure to select the
appropriate type matching to the particular pad or drum trigger, in order to use it at its full potential.

1 INPUT (Trigger Input jack)
Determines a target Trigger Input jack. You can select the
Trigger Input jack by hitting the desired pad when Input Lock
(page 79) is turned off (when the L indicator is not shown at
the right top of the LCD display).
Settings snare – pad15
Trigger Sensitivity Settings
From this display, you can set the sensitivity-related parameters, which determine how the DTX900 responds to the trigger
signals received via the Trigger Input jacks. In other words, the parameters here determine how the level of the trigger signal
(strength of your hits) is converted to the velocity recognized by the tone generator block. Keep in mind that the level and
velocity generated by hitting a pad are shown at the top of the LCD display in real time.

NOTE
• When XP120SD/T, XP100SD/T, TP120SD/100 or TP65S is used as a
snare pad, set the pad type to "for snare." As the sensitivity of the
closed rim shot section increases, the closed rim shot will become
easier to sound.

Determines a target Trigger Input jack. You can select the
Trigger Input jack by hitting the desired pad when Input Lock
(page 79) is turned off (when the L indicator is not shown at
the right top of the LCD display).

B Gain
Determines the gain with which the DTX900 receives the
trigger signal from the pad. The higher the value, the more
easily you can get sound even when hitting the pad softly.
