manual abstract
The H position corresponds to a high sensitivity proper for use with the DT20 Drum Trigger, etc. • It is possible to connect the TP65, TP65S, PCY65S, etc. pads to the 1 KICK jack. You can also use the Hi-Hat Controller HH series as a kick pedal (Use [1-1. Pad Type] (Reference Guide : P. 12) to assign settings.). • In addition to the 1 KICK jack, the 9/10 jack can be used to connect a second bass drum pedal to create a double-bass drum set. • The 9/10 jacks correspond to a 2-trigger input that uses a stereo jack for L (9) and R (10). We recommend the use of these jacks when connecting the Yamaha Bar Pad (BP-80). You can use an conversion cable plug (stereo plug m monaural plug x2) to input two separate trigger signals. to 7 CRASH to 6 RIDE to 3 TOM1 to 4 TOM2 to 2 SNARE to 5 TOM3 to 8 HI HAT to 1 KICK to HI HAT CONTROL Caution) A cable equipped with a stereo plug is required when connecting the Hi-Hat Controller. The hi-hat drum pad clamp can also be attached to this arm. Setting Up Removing the Drum Triggers When changing the batterhead, carefully remove the drum trigger sen- sors with a knife, etc. before loosening the head. * Be careful not to pull the cord when removing the trigger. Attach the Drum Trigger Use the following procedure to attach the drum trigger sensors to your acoustic drums. • Attach to the Bass Drum Mount the drum trigger sensor on the batterhead of the bass drum close to the edge of the rim. * Make sure the sensor does not come in contact with the rim. • Attach to the Snare Drum Mount the drum trigger sensor on the batterhead of the snare drum close to the edge of the rim across player. * Make sure the sensor does not come in contact with the rim. • Attach to the Toms Mount the drum trigger sensor on the shell close to the edge of the rim. * Make sure the sensor does not come in contact with the rim. * Place the trigger in a position where other instruments (drum or percussion) will not influence it. With the optional Yamaha DT20, etc. Drum Triggers attached to a set of acoustic drums, it is possible to connect acoustic drums to the DTXPRESS II. A setup example using both acoustic drums and drum pads. Referring to the illustration shown below, connect the output cable from each pad and drum trigger to each Trigger Input Jack located on the rear panel of the DTXPRESS II. * When using the drum triggers, appoint suitable settings in the Trigger Setup Edit mode’s [1-1. Pad Type]. (Reference Guide : P. 12) Setting up with Acoustic Drums Taking Care of the Drum Triggers • Make sure the surface of the batterhead or shell where the trigger is to be mounted is free from dirt and grime. Clean the surface with alcohol, etc. before attaching. • To prevent broken trigger cords caused by the vibration of the drum rim, secure the sensors and cords in place with tape. • Irregular vibration and sustained resonance on the batterhead or shell may cause double-triggering. This can be prevented by applying a mute to the batterhead and controlling excessive vibration. We recommend the use of the Yamaha Ring Mute. • Once you have removed drum triggers and want to mount them again, be sure completely remove the old tape and apply new tape. Using used tape may cause problems such as poor sensitivity, double-triggering, etc. to 7 CRASH to 3 TOM1 to 6 RIDE to 4 TOM2 to 2 SNARE to 5 TOM3 to 8 HI HAT to 1 KICK to 9/10 9 10 12 Connecting a Mixer or Audio Equipment Connecting the OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks on the rear of the DTXPRESS II to a mixer or audio equipment allows for audio reproduction through external speakers or the recording of your performance. • Using speakers with built-in amplifiers. * The OUTPUT jack is a standard monaural type phone jack. Please use a cable equipped with a plug that matches device. * When connecting to a monaural input device, please use the OUTPUT L/MONO jack on the DTXPRESS II. Setting Up • Recording your performance with the DTXPRESS II to a cassette tape deck. Connecting a MIDI Device Data in the DTXPRESS II can be stored (Bulk Dump) to a Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, etc. or other MIDI device. Also, an external sequencer can be used to drive the DTXPRESS II’s Tone Generator. Furthermore, the use of MIDI functions allows for a wide range of possibilities with the DTXPRESS II. Refer to the [Using MIDI] section (P. 25) on how to use MIDI functions. Connecting a Computer The DTXPRESS II is equipped with a built-in MIDI interface that allows the DTXPRESS II to be connected directly to a computer’s serial board via the DTXPRESS II’s TO HOST jack. Sequencer software installed in the computer can be used to drive the keyboard voices of the DTXPRESS II and sequence data created in the DTXPRESS II can be edited in the computer. Refer to the [Connecting a Computer] section (P. 26) for more information. • Transmit MIDI Data Use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT jack on the DTXPRESS II with the MIDI IN jack on the external MIDI device.
