• VGROUP (Voice group)
This setting determines the type of action when
the same pad is hit in succession (PL/MN), and
the group to which the pad belongs (0 - 7). The
setting range is PL0 - PL7 and MN0 - MN7.
If you select PL for a pad, the previous sound
of the pad will keep playing in addition to the
new sound when you hit the pad in succession.
If you select MN for a pad, the previous sound
of the pad will stop, and only the new sound is
heard when you hit the pad in succession.
GROUP=PL
The numeric settings 0 - 7 determine the group
of a pad (0: no group, 1 - 7: group 1 - 7). The
sounds of pads that are in the same group will
not be produced together. By assigning the
pads for open hi-hat and closed hi-hat to the
same group, the open hi-hat sound will be
suppressed when you activate the closed hi-hat
sound, resulting in a natural effect.
The group number 0 - 7 applies both to PL and
MN. Therefore pads PL1 and MN1 will not
produce sound together.
• SENDLVL (Send level)
Sets the signal level to be supplied to the
REVERB effect. The setting range is 0 - 100.
This setting is made separately for each pad
and is independent of the overall drum kit send
level setting (→ p. 56) made in effect mode.
To control effect intensity for each pad
individually, it may be best to set the effect
mode send level to 0 and adjust the SENDLVL
parameter for the pads.
NOTE
If the KICKDRY parameter in the patch
currently selected for the REVERB effect is
ON, changing the send level of a pad to
