Playing a Drum Kit –
The RADIAS provides thirty-two drum kits, each consisting of sixteen drum instruments. You can assign
these instruments to note numbers and play them from the keyboard, and one timbre in each program can
be assigned a drum kit.
In the Drum Play mode you can play drum kits directly from the keyboard.
Here's how to select and play a drum kit.

Use the [PROGRAM/VALUE] dial to select a drum
kit.
Turn the dial to select one of the thirty-two drum kits.
Play the keyboard.
The drum instrument assigned to each note will sound. In the factory-set drum kits, drum instru-
ments are assigned to the C2–D#3 keys.
The display will indicate the name, note number, and group of the drum instrument you played.
You can also play the drum kit using 16KEYS [1]–[16].
In the Drum Play/Edit modes, each drum instrument will sound on the global MIDI channel.
In the Drum Play/Edit modes, the operation of the effects, arpeggiator, and step sequencer will be-
have according to the timbre that was assigned to a drum kit in the program that was selected when
you hit the [DRUM] button to enter the Drum Play mode. If no drum kit was assigned to the pro-
gram, the settings of initial program will be used. In this case, you will only be able to change the
on/off switch settings for the assigned effect or the arpeggiator.
