THRESHOLD – False triggering can occur when a trigger is engaged accidentally, often due to stage vibrations. The

Threshold setting helps prevent false triggering. The threshold value is the minimum velocity needed to be registered

for the trigger to output data. When editing a hi-hat pedal, the Threshold function has a slightly different meaning.

NOTE: For a hi-hat pedal, the Threshold value describes the minimum distance between pedal positions,

when changing directions, necessary for the Trigger IO to output a CC value. If you like to use the hi-hat pedal

for subtle nuances, you may wish to set the hi-hat pedal Threshold to a low value.

X-TALK – Crosstalk occurs when triggers in close proximity are falsely triggered. For example, when using acoustic

drum triggers mounted on a drum kit, hitting a certain drum may cause the drums to vibrate and other triggers to

trigger as well. The X-Talk feature describes the degree to which the Trigger IO will attempt to reject crosstalk.

Positive X-Talk values attempt to intelligently suppress crosstalk. If a very loud and a very soft trigger arrive almost

simultaneously, the X-Talk function will assume that the soft trigger is crosstalk and will suppress it from sounding.

The higher the X-Talk value, the higher the velocities that will be suppressed. This means that when using high X-

Talk values, you can't play hard and soft notes simultaneously. At a setting of 7, it may even be difficult to play a

drum roll.

NOTE: For a hi-hat pedal, the X-Talk function is used as a Calibration function. This allows you to calibrate the

pedal for optimum performance. If a hi-hat pedal is selected, you will see "CAL" displayed on the screen. You

can adjust the calibration manually or you can let the Trigger IO adjust it automatically by leaving the pedal in

the up position and pressing up value and down value buttons simultaneously.

calibrate the pedal.

RETRIGGER – The Retrigger setting describes how the Trigger IO interprets and outputs successive triggers from

the same input. The Retrigger setting is the minimum amount of time between successive triggers needed to

generate a second sound. If you hear a flamming sound, you should raise the Retrigger amount.

TRIGGER TYPE – Please make sure that your trigger's Trigger Type is configured correctly before editing or using it.

If the Trigger Type is configured incorrectly, your trigger may not function properly or at all. You will need to select a

Trigger Type which matches your specific trigger, as shown in the table below. If you have a single zone drum trigger,

then ignore the "ring" column in the table below. Select PP if you have a piezo trigger or SS if you have a switch

trigger. If you have a dual zone drum, then use a TRS cable and select the appropriate type from the table below. If

you have a dual zone drum but only a TS cable, then you can still use the primary zone (tip) but not the secondary

zone (ring). Hi-hat pedals are automatically detected by the Trigger IO, so there will be no need to set the Trigger

Type.

*To be used with footswitches. When the footswitch is pressed down, it generates

SAVING PARAMETER SETTINGS

If you have made changes to Kit and Global parameters (i.e. changed MIDI note numbers, channels, trigger settings),

you will notice that the LED next to Kit will begin blinking. This means that there are changes which have not yet

been saved. To save these changes, please use the function up/down buttons to return to the Kit function. This will

save the changes you have made. Alternatively, if you have made changes but do not wish to save them, press

function down and value down buttons simultaneously. This will cancel any changes made after the kit was

loaded.

SENDING MESSAGES

• To send an All Notes Off message, press function up and

function down buttons simultaneously.

• To send a Return to Default Value message, press the

function down and value down buttons simultaneously.

• To send a Factory Reset message, hold down the value up

and value down buttons simultaneously while powering on

the Trigger IO. You will see "rES" displayed on the screen to

let you know that the Trigger IO has been reset.
