DTX-PRO DTX-PROX Reference Manual
Only one Inst is played
when two pads are
struck simultaneously
• Ensure that trigger setups have been configured correctly.
•From MENU/Trigger/Pad Type/Pad Type or TRIGGER/SETTING/
Pad Type/Pad Type, select the pad that is not producing sound,
and raise the value of its Gain parameter.
•From MENU/Trigger/Pad Type/Pad Type or TRIGGER/SETTING/
Pad Type/Pad Type, select the pad that is not producing sound,
and lower the value of its MinLevel parameter.
Sounds are skipped
during rolls and flams
Reduce the “Reject Time” parameter from MENU/Trigger/Pad
Type/Pad Type or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type.
Cannot choke
Cannot mute
• Check the “Pad Type” parameter from MENU/Trigger/Pad Type
or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type.
• Check the orientation of the cymbal pad.
If the orientation of the pad is set improperly, the cymbal pad
may not function fully.
Foot closed hi-hat
sounds cannot be
played
It is difficult to produce
closed hi-hat sounds
Shaft on the Hi-hat pad
is loose
Extra felt is attached
LED rotary fader is set
at the minimum level
(DTX-PROX)
The level settings for
the pad are improper
• Make sure that you are fully and firmly operating the hi-hat con-
troller or the hi-hat pedal.
• Lower the setting of the “FootClosePos” parameter in MENU/
Utility/Pad.
• Is the pad type shown by the “Pad Type” parameter in MENU/
Tri g ge r / Pa d Ty p e or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type correct?
• Ensure that hi-hat pad or the hi-hat controller is correctly con-
nected to the [CONTROL] jack of the PRO series module.
• Putting extra felt under the cymbal pad may result in lower vol-
ume.
• Ensure that slider on the MIXER screen or the LED rotary fader
for the pad for which a sound is not being produced is set high
enough.
Hi-hat splash sounds
are not produced as
intended
Adjust the “FootSplashSens” parameter from MENU/Utility/Pad.
Hi-hat splash sounds will not be produced if “off” has been set
here.
Pads with position
sensing do not pro-
duce sounds properly
• Check the “Pad Type” parameter from MENU/Trigger/Pad Type
or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type
.
•
Check the orientation of the cymb
al pad. When this is not set
properly, the cymbal pad may not be fully functional.
• Make sure to connect the pad to the proper jack that supports
position sensing.
• Select an Inst or a voice that is compatible with position sensing.
For more information, refer to the Data List (PDF).
Reliable trigger signals
cannot be produced
(when using a drum
trigger attached to an
acoustic drum)
• Check the “Pad Type” parameter from MENU/Trigger/Pad Type
or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type.
• Ensure that the “Gain” parameter from MENU/Trigger/Pad Type
or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type is not set too high.
• Ensure that you are using only the recommended Yamaha drum
triggers (trigger sensors) or pads. Products from other manufac-
turers can output excessively large signals, which in turn can
result in double triggering.
• Ensure that the heads are not vibrating in an irregular manner,
and mute them if so required.
• Ensure that drum triggers have been installed properly.
• Increase the “Reject Time” parameter from MENU/Trigger/Pad
Ty p e or TRIGGER/SETTING/Pad Type. Avoid setting too large a
reject time, as this can make it impossible to accurately detect
flams, rolls, and the like.
• The longer the bass drum sound, the easier it is to cause double
triggers. Adjust the drum so that it produces a shorter sound. Try
muting/tuning the head/changing the head.
