When Setting Multiple Pads to the
Same Note Number

When the note number is set to be more than one pad
received, the instrument assigned to the pad with the lowest
TRIGGER INPUT number is played. When note numbers for
the head and rim are duplicated, the head instrument is
played.

An asterisk (*) appears at the right of the note number for
TRIGGER INPUTS that are not sounded.

Example:

Note number “38 (D 2)” is set for the head and rim of
TRIGGER INPUT 2 (SNARE) and the head of TRIGGER
INPUT 3 (TOM 1). In this case, when Note Number “38” is
received, the instrument assigned to the head of TRIGGER
INPUT 2 (SNARE) is played.

About the Gate Time

Percussion sound modules normally produce sound only
in response to “Note on” messages, and ignore “Note off”
messages. However general-purpose sound modules or
samplers do receive the note-off messages that are
transmitted and respond by turning off the sound.

For example, if you are triggering a “loop” in a sampler,
or other sounds then the gate time parameter is very
important. With the factory defaults (preset values), the
transmitted gate time is set to the minimum value.
