how to set up and play the PD-14DSX.
Configuring the PD-14DSX assignments
Here's how to specify the trigger input to which a connected
PD-14DSX should be assigned.
The optimal pad assignments are already made when you first
connect the PD-14DSX.
The following explains how to change the assigned destinations
(assignments).
* If you assign the same trigger input used by a pad connected to
a TRIGGER IN jack, the pad that's connected to that TRIGGER IN
jack does not output sound.
* When you execute a factory reset for the TD-50X, the
Ver.
connection history and settings of digitally-connected pads are
initialized.

If you don't want to assign the pad to any trigger input, choose
"N/A".
* You can't specify multiple instances of the same assignment.
Adjusting the sensitivity of the PD-14DSX
The PD-14DSX is already set up with the optimal sensitivity when
