ddrum4 SE V1.5x
6. Panel reference: System functions
'rin': The ddrum Cast Precision and Cast Precision Mesh Head Snare pad has a special rim sensor. Use
this trig input type if a channel is triggered from the rim sensor.
'AcP': Use this with the ddrum Cast Acoustic pads.
'Hnd': Select this if you want to play on the pads with your hands.
'Ac1': Use this one if you are using an acoustic snare drum together with a ddrum Trigger microphone.
If you get multiple trig signals, try and raise the threshold value for the channel or select 'Ac2'.
'Ac2': This one is slightly less sensitive than 'Ac1'. Try this one if you are using a ddrum Trigger micro-
phone mounted on acoustic toms or kick drums.
'Ac3': This is the least sensitive "acoustic" trig input type. It is designed for triggering long, sustained
acoustic drum sounds using a ddrum Trigger.
'Cyb': Use this one if you are a ddrum Cymbal.
'nh1-3': Select one of these if you're playing on acoustic drums fitted with mesh head and triggering with
ddrum Trigger. Use 'nh1' for small heads, 'nh2' for medium and 'nh3' for large heads. If your ddrum4
SE system was shipped with the Cast Precision Mesh Head Pads the snare, toms and percussion channels
should be set to mesh head 1 (nh1).
'HHt': This should be used if you're using the ddrum Hi-hat. The ddrum Hi-hat must be connected to
trigger input number 10 on the ddrum4 SE module to work as intended. When you're using a ddrum
Hi-hat for the first time, and select the 'HHt' trigger type, the ddrum4 SE module needs to be calibrated
to the Hi-hat. While in Trig Input mode (in the System menu) for channel 10, loosen the clutch from
the hi-hat rod, let the clutch slide all the way down and then hold Shift and press Exit. The D
will

confirm the calibration by briefly showing 'CAL'. If you connect another ddrum Hi-hat or change the
clutch, you will have to recalibrate.

The threshold prohibits weak or stray trigger signals from triggering a channel. If e.g. your toms trigger
the snare as well or if your monitor speakers are loud enough to actually trigger sounds, increase the
threshold value on the channel that receives external triggering. The higher the threshold value, the less
sensitive the channel becomes. Change the threshold value by turning the R
D
.

IAL
Values: 1 - 100, the default value is 15, except for the snare channel which is 10.
