Chapter 8. Trigger Settings for Each Pad [TRIGGER]

Here's how to make trigger settings to ensure that the trigger
signals from the pads and pedals are appropriately conveyed
to the sound generator section.
If you specify the model (type) of pad that is connected to
each trigger input jack, the settings suitable for each pad will
be made. To specify the pad type, use the [TRIGGER] button
[F1 (BANK)].
If you want to make additional fine adjustments for each pad
to further adjust the sensitivity etc., you can use the [F2
(BASIC)] or [F5 (ADVANCE)] button to do so.
Selecting the Pad Type
[F1 (BANK)]
To ensure that the signals from the pads can be processed
appropriately by the TD-20X, you must specify the type of
pad you're using (the trigger type) for each trigger input.
Trigger Type
A trigger type is a group of trigger settings with values
optimally adjusted for a particular pad.
In order to make the most suitable settings for the pad
connected to each trigger input, specify the model (type) of
the pad that is connected.
Only when factors unrelated to the selection of the proper
trigger type prevent you from getting good results in
performance should you fine-tune the individual parameters
for the pad you are using.
Trigger Bank
Trigger Banks allow you to store the 15 trigger settings as a
single unit of information. The large number at the left edge
of the above display is the Trigger Bank number. Move the
cursor to this area to select the Trigger Bank.
