7. DYNAMIC GATE
Dynamic Gate is an exercise for playing pads with proper dynamics. Your aim is to control three levels: Weak, Normal
and Strong. When you strike with the wrong dynamics, it will not produce any sound. How accurately you strike with
the proper dynamics is evaluated at the end of the exercise. Once you master Dynamic Gate, you will be a skillful drum-
mer at controlling dynamics depending on the situation.
What you can do during training:
 To set the pad sounds to be muted for specific dynamics
For example, you can set the pad sound to be produced only when the pad is struck within the NORM range. In such
case, disable WEAK and STRONG.
Use the buttons below “ ” and “ ” ([F2] and [F3]) to move the cursor ( ), then use the
[–] [+] controllers to select a square to show (with sounds) or not to show (without
sounds).
You can also change the cursor position by striking the pad.
