1.3F Buttons that Toggle

The Mode buttons, FILL button, and several function buttons (DRUM SET, RECORD SETUP,
MIDI SETUP, and BACKUP) "toggle" between two states. Each button press sets the switch to
its alternate state. Example: Press the PATTERN/SONG button once to change from Pattern
to Song; press again to change from Song to Pattern. Example: Press RECORD SETUP to
call up the Record Setup menu; press RECORD SETUP again to get out of the Record Setup
menu.

1.4 10 STEPS TO INSTANT GRATIFICATION (SETUP AND CHECKOUT)

1. Connect the Main outputs (either left or right for a mono monitoring system, or both for
stereo) to a high-quality musical instrument amplifier or PA. The amp and IDM01 volume
controls should be all the way down (counter-clockwise).
2. Leave the MIDI jacks (rear panel) disconnected for now.
3. Plug the IDM01's AC adapter into the wall. The smaller plug inserts in the 9V AC Power jack
on the back.
4. Turn on the rear panel On/Off switch, then turn on the amplifier.
5. The LCD will show a sign-on message. The upper right of the display should say PATTERN
and not SONG; if it shows SONG, press the PATTERN/SONG button and the display will show
PATTERN.
6. Start tapping the pads. Adjust the volume control for a comfortable listening level, and check
out the sounds.
7. To hear the built-in demo, hold down the PATTERN/SONG button and press PLAY. To stop
the demo, press STOP. If you want to play along with the demo, feel free to bash away on the
pads.
