Meaning
Volume behaviour of a pad
regardless of the actual strike
intensity. The higher the value,
the higher the volume when
playing, and vice versa.
If several pads are mounted on
a rack vibrations can be trans‐
mitted to other pads when
you hit a trigger and uninten‐
tionally trigger sounds. This
crosstalk can be avoided by
the appropriate setting. The
value should be set as low as
possible.
The trigger curve regulates the
velocity, i.e., the ratio between
the punch and volume. Use
the 'Curve 1' setting for the
most natural ratio between
punch and volume. With
'Curve 2' or 'Curve 3' , a strong
strike will cause a bigger
change. With 'Curve 4' or
'Curve 5' , a light strike will
cause a bigger change. With
the 'Curve 6' setting, the
volume changes less upon a
change of the strike. High vol‐
umes are already reached at a
relatively low strike intensity.
The figure below shows the
various options schematically.
