This "screen shot" is taken from Drum Edit mode. It contains many of the elements
which will be encountered in the various modes of the DM Pro.
Drumkit/MIDI Note Number: The large numbers indicate the present Drumkit or
MIDI Note Number, depending on which mode you are in. If the DM Pro is in Drum
Edit mode and the [CHASE] button is lit, striking a Trigger or a note on a MIDI
controller will cause the MIDI Note Number to change.
Sound Number: Seen only in Drum Edit Mode,
the Drum is currently being edited. There are four Sounds within each Drum. If a
Sound is not active, it will be represented by
Function Name: Tells you which Function has been selected for editing.
Page Number: Indicates which Page within the Function is currently being viewed
on the bottom line of the display.
Mode Indicator: This area of the screen will display either the word "DRUM" or the
words "DRUM" and "KIT", depending on which mode you are in.
Edit Indicator: If you see the word "EDIT" here, you have entered either Drumkit
Edit or Drum Edit mode, but you have not yet altered a value. Once you alter a
parameter within the current Drum or Drumkit, the word changes to "EDITED."
Parameter Name: The word displayed here tells you which Parameter you will be
editing if you change the Value.
Trigger Number: After pressing [TRIG] you will see one of these numbers flashing to
indicate which Trigger Input you are currently editing. Also, a circle will appear
around the number if its Trigger Input has received a strong enough signal. No
numbers will flash if you have selected a Trigger parameter which pertains to the
entire Trigger Setup.
Parameter Value: Changing this area of the screen with the Value encoder will edit
the currently selected Parameter. This area of the screen can also display a word or
words as your value options, depending on the Parameter you have selected.
