1.4 10 STEPS TO INSTANT GRATIFICATION (SETUP AND CHECKOUT)
1. Connect the Main outputs (either left or right for a mono monitoring system, or both
for stereo) to a high-quality musical instrument amplifier, PA, or plug the included
headphones into the headphone output on the back of the Performance Pad. The amp
and Performance Pad volume control (on back) should be all the way down (counter-
clockwise).
2. Leave the MIDI OUT jack (rear panel) disconnected for now.
3. Plug the Performance Pad's AC adapter into the wall. The smaller plug inserts in
the 9V AC Power jack on the back.
4. Turn on the rear panel On/Off switch, then turn on the amplifier.
5. The LCD will show a sign-on message. The upper right of the display should say
PATTERN and not SONG; if it shows SONG, press the PATTERN/SONG button and
the display will show PATTERN.

6. Start striking the pads with the drumsticks. Adjust the volume control for a
comfortable listening level, and check out the sounds.
7. To hear the built-in demo, hold down the PATTERN/SONG button and press PLAY.
To stop the demo, press STOP. If you want to play along with the demo, feel free to
bash away on the pads.
8. Press PLAY, and you'll hear a Preset Pattern. (In case the Performance Pad has
already been played with, make sure that the display shows PERFORM and does not
show USER before continuing. To choose Perform mode, press the
PERFORM/COMPOSE button until the Perform/Compose section of the display shows
PERFORM). To choose Preset rather than User Patterns, press the PRESET/USER
button until the display does not show USER. If USER is not showing, then Preset
Patterns are selected.
