Press [INC/+] or [DEC/-] to adjust the sensitivity of the pads.
Here you can make a setting of 1–16.
Higher settings result in higher sensitivity, so that the pad will produce a
loud volume even when struck softly.
Lower settings result in lower sensitivity, so that the pad will produce a low
volume even when struck forcefully.
Setting the Overall Target
Set the sensitivity so that the indicator reaches the maximum position when
you play with your maximum dynamics. A flag, such as shown in the

With electronic drum kits,
overall volume is another
important element.
Listening at low volumes
may make it seem that
there is too little change in
volume, so you might raise
the sensitivity excessively
without really needing to.
In order to make these
settings correctly, adjust
the volume of amps or
headphones to appropriate
levels.
