Creating your own drum kit

You can create your own original drum kit by assigning
sounds with specific settings for volume, pitch, panning,
etc. to the pads and giving the kit a unique name. It is also
possible to copy an existing drum kit and edit only a part
of it. The drum kit can then be saved on the hard disk as
