Selecting the Pad Type

(Trigger Type)
To ensure that the TD-6V accurately receives signals sent from
the pads, be sure to specify the trigger type (the type of pads
being used).
Set each trigger input as described below.
Setting the trigger type allows the TD-6V to accurately detect
the force used to strike the pads and avoid secondary
sounding of a pad (retriggering). You can also set this up for
PD-85 and PD-120 rim shots.
After making the trigger type settings, adjust the pad
sensitivity and carry out other adjustments as needed.
When you set the Trigger Type, the following parameters are
automatically set to the most efficient values.
They should be adjusted as necessary to match the actual state of
your configuration and the environment in which it is being used.
