Drumkits (and Sound Patch)
Although these “sounds” are recalled using the same method used for “normal” sounds,
they differ in their structure.
Drumkits are constructed by assigning a different sound to each note of the keyboard.
Every note is completely independent from its neighbours and the Sound assigned to
each note can be programmed. The editing tasks affect the sound’s performance
parameters, such as transpose, panpot, tunings, and others.
Also incorporated is a Dynamic Threshold, above which another sound can be assigned
so that playing harder (increased Dynamics) triggers the sound on the higher dynamic
level.
While Drumkits are, generally, all programmed on one dynamic level, the Sound Patch
sounds, such as Rhodx, DynGuit, DynTrumpt and others, all make extensive use of the
incorporated “Dynamic Switch”. Here, two sounds covering preset keyboard exten-
sions are separated by the dynamic threshold. Playing harder gains access to the second
dynamic level and, therefore, to the second sound or sounds.
The Drumkit Edit Menu
As already seen, these type of “sounds” show a completely different Edit display to the
“normal” sounds.
For example, if you examine the Drumkit DKJazz, pressing SOUNDS in the Edit
section shows the following display:
This display example shows the “Tambourine” assigned the note “F3#”.
The parameters available intervene on the sounds of all the notes of the drumkit.
The above display example refers to the lowest dynamic level, determined by the
SWITCH LEVEL. To pass to the second dynamic level, simply press EDIT 2.
Programming Drumkits
If you are programming a Drumkit, set the Dynamic Switch Level on the first page to
value 127 - this will exclude Level 2.
Programming two different Sounds for each note
If you want to program 2 different sounds in order that the second one is triggered by
playing harder, set the Dynamic Switch Level on page 1 to 126 or lower.
