2.5 PAGE 5: ADJUST VELOCITY RESPONSE (VELOCITY)
There are 11 ways in which a pad's output level can respond to the force with which you tap
it: soft, medium, loud, and eight fixed responses.
The display says VELOCITY. To select the desired dynamic response, use the INC/DEC or
number buttons (1 = Fixed 1, 2 = Fixed 2, 3 = Fixed 3, 4 = Fixed 4, 5 = Fixed 5, 6 = Fixed 6, 7 =
Fixed 7, 8 = Fixed 8, 9 = Soft, and 0 = Loud). Medium can be selected only with the INC/DEC
buttons.
Background This feature accommodates players with a heavier or lighter touch. Referring to the diagram, soft
response weights the response toward softer sounds; with medium response, the level is directly proportional to
how hard you tap the pad; loud response weights the response toward louder sounds.
Fixed volume plays back the associated drum sound at one of eight possible volume levels. With Fixed Volume 1,
all drums assume the level of the softest possible tap, regardless of how hard you tap the pads. With Fixed Volume
8, all drums assume the level of the loudest possible tap, regardless of how hard you tap the pads. Fixed Volumes
2-7 provide the levels between the softest and loudest extremes, with lower numbers giving softer levels.
