The Pad Copy feature in the SPD-30 allows you to copy the instrument assignment of a pad in a kit to a different pad in the kit, or into to another Kit altogether. For example, if you like a specific sound that's assigned to a pad in one kit, you can copy it and paste it into another. Here's how:
1. Press the KIT (< >) buttons to choose the desired Kit that has the sound assigned to a pad that you want to copy.
2. Hit the pad that has the sound that you want to copy.
3. Press the QUICK button.
4. Turn the function 2 knob to highlight "COPY," and then press the function 3 button (OK).
5. Turn the function 2 knob to choose "Pad," and then press function 3 (OK).
6. Choose the new kit that you want to copy the sound to.
7. Hit the pad that you want to copy to.
8. Press the QUICK button.
9. Turn the function 2 knob to highlight "Paste," and then press the function 3 button (OK).
10. Turn function 2 to highlight "Pad," and then press function 3 (OK).
The new sound is now copied to your selected pad in the new Kit.
