Detecting Trigger Signal Attenuation and Cancelling
Incorrect Triggering (Retrigger Cancel)
Important if you are using acoustic drum triggers. Such triggers can produce altered waveforms, which
may also cause inadvertent sounding at Point A in the following figure.
fig.retrigger.e
This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform. Retrigger Cancel detects such distortion in
and prevents retriggering from occurring.
Although setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to be omitted
when the drums played fast (roll etc.). Set this to the lowest value possible while still ensuring that there is
no retriggering.

Time
You can also eliminate this problem of retriggering with the Mask Time setting. Mask Time
does not detect trigger signals if they occur within the specified amount of time after the
previous trigger signal was received. Retrigger Cancel detects the attenuation of the trigger
signal level, and triggers the sound after internally determining which trigger signals were
actually generated when the head was struck, while weeding out the other false trigger
signals that need not trigger a sound.

Do not turn off the power without the [EDIT] light having gone out. Otherwise you will lose
the changes you have just made.
