CHAPTER 7:
TRIGGERS
This section discusses the DM Pro Trigger Mode, where the 16 Triggers, located on
the rear panel, can be used to sound individual Drums and/or convert incoming
trigger signals into MIDI data.
To enter or return to Trigger Mode, press [TRIG].
The DM Pro contains four user programmable Trigger Setups where the Values for
the Trigger Functions are held. There is no need to store your Trigger Function edits
as all four Trigger Setups are perpetually held in memory – any Value that you edit
within a Trigger Setup will remain until you edit it again.
The DM Pro contains 12 Trigger Mode Functions:
Note Assign
Trigger Gain
Velocity Curve
Threshold
Retrigger
Crosstalk
Noise Suppression
Trigger Setup Select
Hat Pedal Type
Hat Threshold
AUX Pedal Type
AUX Trigger Gain
Since the TRIG button contains Functions for both Drumkit Mode and Trigger Mode,
the Trigger Mode Functions begin on Page 2 of the display. Note that each Trigger
Mode Function has only one Parameter and so each Function serendipitously
occupies its own page.
As we are discussing the Trigger parameters in this chapter, keep in
mind that on Triggers 13, 14, and 16 the Page numbers will be off by
one page for each parameter. This is due to the differing number of
parameters available for these Triggers. For the sake of clarity, we
will be referencing the Page Numbers used by the majority of the
Triggers.
