The Sensitivity, Threshold, and Velocity settings for each pad on the SPD-SX-SE can be adjusted to suit your playing style. Here's how:
- Press MENU.
- Cursor to "SETUP," and then press ENTER.
- Cursor to "PAD SENS," and then press ENTER.
- Cursor to the desired parameter (e.g. Threshold).
- Hit the pad you'd like to adjust the settings for.
- Press the + or - button to select the parameter whose value you wish to change.
- Press EXIT when you're finished. The new settings are saved automatically.
- Sensitivity— Adjusts how sensitive the pad is. Higher values produce a louder volume even if the pad is hit softly.
- Threshold—Sets the point at which a strike is recognized. More force is needed to trigger a sound if higher values are used.
- Velo (Velocity) Curve—This setting adjusts how the volume level of the sound assigned to a pad changes based on your striking force.
