4. Using the cable bands, secure the cables to the electronic drum rack at the positions circled in the figure on the right. ( )

If you secure the cable band from the side closer to the drum trigger module, you can make connections more easily.

Trigger input jacks on the drum module

Ten-channel snake cable

1. Plug the straight ends of the ten-channel snake cable into the trigger input jacks on the back of the drum trigger module.

When using the standard setup, the stickers on each of the snake cables plugs will indicate the name of the corresponding pad.

2. Plug the L-shaped ends of the ten-channel snake cable into the corresponding pads.

3. Wrap the cables for the snare pad, the tom pads, the cymbal pads and the hi-hat pad around the cable clips to prevent them from being pulled out.

Excessive bending can damage pad cables. Ensure, therefore, that these cables are not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around the clips.NOTICE

6 1. Plug the AC adaptors DC cord into the connector. Hook the AC

adaptors DC cord around the cord clip to secure it in place.

CAUTION Excessive bending can damage AC adaptors DC cord. Ensure, there- fore, that the cord is not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around the clips. Doing so can cause fire or electrical shock.

2. Plug the adaptors AC cord into a domestic wall socket.

7 According to your particular electronic drum kit, select the DTX10K-X or the DTX10K-M trigger setup on your drum trigger module. (For details on the trigger setup procedure, refer to the Initial Settings (Trigger Setup Wizard) in the DTX-PROX Owners Manual.)

The letters at the end of the model name (X or M) indicates the pad type. X represents TCS products and M represents mesh products. Selecting the wrong trigger setup will ad- versely affect your ability to perform comfortably, since sensing when the drum is hit differs depending on the pad type. Use the correct trigger setup that corresponds to your particular electronic drum kit for optimum performance.

Kick pad output (LEVEL) adjustment: Adjust the trigger output to your desired setting by using the KP128 kick pads level adjustment knob. For details, refer to the Adjusting the Output Level in the KP128 Owners Manual.

IMPORTANT

You can play comfortably by striking near the YAMAHA logo. Adjust the height, angle and ori- entation of the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad to a position where you can hit around the YAMAHA logo naturally when performing. The correct setting position is that the YAMAHA logo of the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad are visible in front of the performer. The direction of the cymbal pad will be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the stopper as shown on the right. The direction of the hi-hat pad will also be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the hi-hat clutch.

The hi-hat shaft will become loose while you continue to use the hi-hat, and the hi-hat pad may rotate. Since this may adversely affect performance, screw in the hi-hat shaft periodically and adjust the position of the hi-hat pad.
