There is a separate volume level control for the snare crosstick (X-Stick) sound. Here's how to access and adjust it:
1. Choose a Kit to edit.
2. Press the "OTHER" button.
3. Press the down cursor button to select the second set of icons.
4. Press the function 1 button (VOLUME).
5. Cursor down to highlight the value next to "Xstick Volume."
6. While tapping on the snare rim to trigger the X-stick sound, turn the dial to adjust the level.
7. When you have set the level as desired, press the DRUM KIT button to exit. The new settings are saved automatically.
*** Note: When you're finished using the TD-17 and you're ready to shut off its power, be sure to use the physical power button on the TD-17 to do so. If, for example, an external switch on a power supply strip or a wall switch is used, the custom settings you have made in the TD-17 will not be saved.
