Taking Care of Your Digital Drum Set

Location

Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight, high temperatures, or other conditions that may cause deformation or damage.
Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument.

Power Supply

Use a suitable AC adaptor and ensure that the voltage matches the input voltage specified on the adaptor’s label.
Turn the power switch off when the instrument is not in use.
Unplug the AC adaptor during electric storms or if the instrument will not be used for an extended period of time.
Avoid plugging the AC adaptor into the same outlet as high-power consumption appliances or using multi-plug adaptors, which may reduce sound quality or cause damage.
Turn off power when making connections to avoid damage to the instrument or other devices.

Handling and Transport

Avoid applying excessive force to controls, connectors, or other parts of the instrument.
Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, but not pulling on the cable.
Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument.
Avoid physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the instrument.

Cleaning

Clean the unit with a dry soft cloth.
Use a slightly damp cloth to remove stubborn grime and dirt.
Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.
Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the unit, as vinyl can stick to and discolor the surface.

Electrical Interference

This instrument contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected equipment.

Playing the pads
Similar to an acoustic drum kit, the digital drum responds differently to various playing techniques and dynamics. All the pads senses the striking force. and some voices change tone depending on the striking force.
Drum pad and rim shot
The digital drum pad detects head and rim shots (rim shots Are different from the pad shots).
Note: 1.SKD200/210/220/230:SNARE and TOM1-
TOM4 are dual channels. Both are rim shot.
2.RIDE: it delivers RIDE BELL sound when hit strongly, and RIDE CYMBAL sound when hit Slightly.
3.SNARE delivers one sound when hit the pad and rim at the same time.

Cymbal bow shot and choke
CRASH and RIDE have the bow shot and choke, e.g. hit the cymbal or the rim then hold the rim to CRASH or RIDE sound.

Adjusting the pad threshold
threshold: the minimum force to trigger a pad signal. Setting a high threshold, the pad needs a strong force to generate a signal. This can avoid accidental response, e.g. other device or pad generate unnecessary signal. Setting a low threshold, the pad needs a weak force to generate a signal.

User can adjust threshold based on external condition and performing style. Threshold range:1—8
Deleting crosstalk of the pads
When two pad are close, hitting one pad can cause the other pad generates a signal. This crosstalk can be deleted by setting a high parameter of the other pad.

Note If two close pads are hit at the same time and one pad threshold is too high, the high threshold pad does not generate a signal, so take care to set threshold to avoid crosstalk.

Instruction for pad parameter setting
1. Pad curve
The curve is relative to the pad dynamic signal. (default:CURVE2)
CURVE 1:very low dynamic response, high volume. If used to trigger the pads,the curve is flat. CURVE2: the standard setting, during playing or when volume changes, it generates maximum natural signal. CURVE3: compared to CURVE2, weak force generates relatively big change. CURVE4: compared to CURVE2, strong force generates relatively big change. CURVE5: compared to CURVE2, strong force generates very big change.
2. Threshold
Threshold: the minimum force to generate a pad signal. The high threshold needs strong force to generate pad signal. Low threshold needs weak force to generate pad signal. Setting threshold needs to refer to playing style and external condition. Threshold range: 1—8
3. Crosstalk
If the crosstalk is too high, weak force is hard to trigger the pad. If the crosstalk is too low, it is easy to lead to crosstalk.
4. About saving
All the changes to the preset drum kit can not be saved in the peset drum kit, but in the user drum kit.

Threshold: the minimum force to generate a pad signal. A high threshold needs a strong force to generate a signal and this can avoid accidental response, e.g. unnecessary signal from other device or pad. A low threshold needs weak force to generate a pad signal. User needs to adjust threshold according to the performance style and condition. Threshold range:1—8
Eliminating crosstalk of pads
When two pads are close, striking one pad can trigger one signal of the close pad, so you can set the close pad to a high threshold to avoid crosstalk.
Note If the threshold is too high, and you strikes two pads at the same time, the weak force does not trigger a signal of a pad with high threshold, so set the threshold carefully.
