2. Select the High “Drum Sample.”

Press the [CATEGORY] button to view a list of

the drum samples organized by category. For

details on how to make a selection, see

“Selecting programs by category” (☞p.38).

3. Select a drum sample name in the list so that it

is highlighted.

4. Press the [MENU/OK] button to conﬁrm the

selection.

5. Press the [PAGE+] button to access the

GLOBAL 4: DKit- Low Sample page.

6. Specify the Low Drumsample as you did in

steps 2–4.

Now you have assigned drum samples to the

High Drumsample and Low Drumsample.

Next, we’ll assign the velocity range for these

drum samples.

7. Set the “Velocity SW L→H”.

The Low drum sample will sound when you

play a key less strongly than the speciﬁed

velocity value, and the High drum sample will

sound when you play more strongly.

For example if you set “Velocity SW L→H” to

100, the drum sample assigned to “Low” will

sound when you play the keyboard softly, and

the multisample assigned to “High” will sound

when you play strongly.

Note: If you don’t want to use this function, set

“Velocity SW L→H” to 001. Only the High

drum sample will sound.

Note: This is the same type of function as

velocity multisample switching in a program.

(☞p.48)

Fine-tuning the sound of each sam-

ple

1. If you like, adjust the Levels for the two Drum

Samples.

Set the High and Low “Level” settings to adjust

the volume balance.

2. Set the tuning and EG parameters as desired.

For each Drum Sample, you can control offsets

to the Program’s settings for transposition,

tuning, and EG attack and decay times.

3. You can adjust the sound or specify reverse

playback for each drum sample.

For each drum sample, set the “FC (Filter

Cutoff)” and “Reso (Resonance)” parameters,

and specify “S.Ofs” and “Rev (Reverse).” (☞PG

p.87)

4. Repeat steps 1–3 to set up each key of the Drum

Kit.

You can also copy settings from one “Key” to

another, using the “Copy Key Setup” utility

command.

Using Exclusive Groups

1. Access the GLOBAL 4: DKit, Voice/Mixer

page.

2. Use the Excl Group (Exclusive Groups) to make

one drum sound cut off another drum sound -

such as closed and open hi-hats.

For example, let’s say that you’ve assigned an

open hi-hat and a closed hi-hat to the same

exclusive group:

• Play the open hi-hat sound.

• While it’s still ringing, play the closed hi-hat.

• The open hi-hat sound will be cut off–simulat-

ing the action of a physical hi-hat.

Using Hold

The Program Hold parameter can be especially

useful for drum programs, since it lets the samples

ring out naturally regardless of how long you hold

down the note. The way that this works depends

on settings in both the Program and the Drum Kit,

as described below.

To enable Hold:

1. Access the PROG 1: Ed–Basic, Prog Basic page.

2. Voice Assign, make sure that the “Hold” check

box is checked.

Once you’ve turned on “Hold” for the

Program, the function is controlled on a note-

by-note basis according to settings within the

Drum Kit.

3. Access the GLOBAL 4: DKit, Voice/Mixer

page.

4. For each key, set the Enable Note Off Receive

parameter as desired.

If this check box is unchecked, the key will be

held. If it is checked, the key will not be held.

If you turn off “Hold” in the Program, no keys

will be held - regardless of their “Enable Note

Off Receive” setting.
