PROG Pan position determined by the Drum

In the final position, PROG, the Drum as programmed in Drum Edit Mode

determines the Pan position. Since a Drum is composed of four unique Voices, each

Voice can be panned independently. Different Voice Pan settings within a Drum are

used to create stereo Drums.

However, if the Pan Parameter of a stereo Drum is set to any Value

other than

PROG, the Drum will be summed to mono with all Voices panned to the same

position.

Tip: To retain the image of a stereo Drum, make sure the Pan Parameter Value is set

to PROG.

Note that Drum Pan Parameter becomes irrelevant if the Output Assignment is set to

Aux 3 or Aux 4 since these are monaural outputs.

P3: The OUTPUT ASSIGNMENT Parameter

This Parameter determines to which of the six outputs a Drum assigned to a MIDI

Note will be sent. The six outputs are configured as two stereo pairs (Main L/R and

Aux 1/2) and two monaural outputs (Aux 3 and Aux 4).

It is important to note that the Effects are sent only to the Main Outputs. Any Drum

on a MIDI Note assigned to Aux 1/2, Aux 3 or Aux 4 will be dry out of those

outputs. But the “effected signal” of Drums assigned to Aux 1/2 will still go to the

Main Outputs as long as their Effects Send Level (see the following description of

this Parameter) is greater than 0. Drums assigned to Aux 3 or Aux 4 are not sent

through the Effects Busses. You will see the symbol “N/A” on the FX Level and FX

Bus Pages when a Drum is assigned to Aux 3 or Aux 4.

Note that many DM Pro Drums contain sampled reverb or ambience,

which will remain intact even if the Drum’s MIDI Note is routed to

an Auxiliary Output. This sampled reverb is independent of the

Effects Processor and can only be edited from within Drum Edit

Mode as it is part of the Drum itself.

Many of the DM Pro Preset Drums are stereo Drums. Again, to preserve their stereo

image, do not adjust their Pan Parameter Value. To route stereo Drums to an

Auxiliary Output, choose the AUX 1/2 Parameter Value. This setting will preserve

the Drum’s stereo image while still removing it from the Main Outputs. Then you

can process the Auxiliary 1/2 Outputs as a separate stereo pair from the Main

Outputs.

To assign a Drum to a specific output or output pair, move the cursor beneath the

Output Assignment Parameter Value:

Output: MAIN L/R

Note:83 B4

Move the Value encoder to change the Output Assignment.
