increments (e.g., Gate00 = Decay setting of 0 with gating, Gate05
= Decay setting of 5 with gating, etc.). Gating means that the
drum sound will continue to be played as long as the key is held.
This is useful for longer sounds, like cymbals, when you wish to
hear a short crash by playing a short note but can still hear a
longer crash by keeping the note held down.
Mute Group (Off, 1, 2, or 3)
This is an important feature when using multiple sounds of the
same instrument. Mute Groups allow multiple drums to share a
single voice. For example, if you have assigned a Closed Hat and
an Open Hat to two different notes, playing either note should
cut-off the other (if it had recently been played). This creates a
more realistic sound, since an actual Hi Hat is only capable of
making one sound at a time.
In the Amp Envelope function, Quad Knob [2] is used to assign
the selected drum to one of the three Mute Groups. In our
example above, both Hi Hat drums would be assigned to the
same Mute Group. The additional Mute Groups can be used by
other sounds that you wish to cut-off each other, but do not want
to interfere with the Hi Hat sounds. Use Quad Knob [4] to select
the drum (1—10) you wish to edit.
