Be aware
that the
gain
values are
extremely sensitive
even in
small
increments.
A period will
appear
to
the right
of the gain number
signaling
that the
trigger level is
reaching it's
full dynamic range. If
a trigger's
gain
is adjusted properly,
the
period
will
appear
only on the
stronsest hits.
Now
repeat steps
3 through 6
fot
the remaining
ttiggers
you
anill be using.
After
completing
these steps, you
should be able
to
play
on
all
of
the pads plugged
in to
the
D4
and hear
the sounds
being
triggered.
Before
going on
to steps 7
-9,
you
should be aware
that the
amount
of
adjustment
needed
for
the
remaining parameters
will
depend on
several variables.
Since
all
drum pads
do
not
utilize
the same
design and materials,
they vary
somewhat
in
sensitivity and how
they respond
to
"outside"
surroundings
The factors
that most
effect
the
performance
of
triggers will be
your hardware
configuration, the
different types
of
pads
or
drums being used, and
the
environment in which you
will be
using
the D4. First
we should
define
the
parameters
which
enable
you
to
control these various
"factors."

CROSSTALK
Nofel In
our
crosstalk scenario
we will use two pads,
a snare pad
and
the tom 1 pad,
both mounted
on a
single stand.
If you
are using
a set up which
consists of several pads mounted
on one rack
or stand,
you
may
be hearing
some crosstalk as you
play around
the
kit.
Crosstalk
is when you hit
the
snare
pad and
the tom
pad
also
triggers.
This is usually
the result
of stand
vibrations
causing
the
pad
(the
tom 1 in
this case) to
trigger.
If
so,
the
XTALK
for
this
pad
needs
to be re.calibrated.
The important
thing
to determine is which pad needs
the
XTALK adjustment.
Remember,
the trigger that needs
adjustment
is the pad
that is false
triggering, not the
pad
being
struck.
So, if
you
are hitting
the
snare
pad
and the tom 1
pad
triggers,
adjust
the
tom
pad, not
the
snare
pad. Now,
to correct the
problem...
