The CURV page lets you set the velocity curve for the triggers, which 
determines how a sound's volume is affected by how hard you strike it – 
that is, how responsive the triggers' dynamics are to changes in your 
playing. 
 
1.

 

Press EXT TRIG to enter the main Ext. Trig Menu page.  Press 
TRIG (F2). 

2.

 

Select the trigger whose parameters you want to edit by pressing 
NOTE CHASE then striking the desired trigger.  Alternatively, you 
can highlight the trigger name at the top of the screen using the 
CURSOR UP / DOWN buttons to highlight it and use the VALUE 
UP / DOWN buttons or VALUE DIAL to change it.   

3.

 

Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items and 
VALUE UP / DOWN buttons or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the 
settings: 
• 

Linear: The triggers will be consistently responsive to 
changes in your playing, increasing at the same rate as the 
force of your hits. 

• 

Log 1-4: The triggers will be more responsive to changes in 
your playing at lower velocities and become less responsive 
at higher velocities. 

• 

Exp 1-4: The triggers will be more responsive to changes in 
your playing at higher velocities and become less responsive 
at lower velocities. 

• 

Spline 1-4: The triggers will be more responsive to changes 
in your playing at lower and higher velocities and less 
responsive at moderate velocities. 

• 

Offset: The triggers will be consistently responsive to 
changes in your playing at lower and medium velocities and 
play sounds at the maximum volume at high velocities. 

• 

Constant: The triggers will play sounds at the maximum 
volume regardless of how hard or soft you hit them. 

4.

 

When you have finished making your edits, you can press EXIT or 
any button that will enter another screen (e.g., DRUM KIT, 
UTILITY, etc.  Your edits will remain for that session (i.e., until you 
turn off the module). 

 

 

 

 

 
You should adjust this setting for the kind of ride cymbal you are using – a dual-zone ride (which has bow 
and bell triggers) or a three-zone ride (which has edge, bow, and bell triggers). 
 
To do this: 
1.

 

Press EXT TRIG to enter the main Ext. Trig Menu page.   

2.

 

Select the ride's bow or bell by pressing NOTE CHASE then 
striking that zone on your cymbal trigger.  Alternatively, you can 
highlight the trigger name at the top of the screen using the 
CURSOR UP / DOWN buttons to highlight it and use the VALUE 
UP / DOWN buttons or VALUE DIAL to select either "RideBell" or 
"RideBow." 

3.

 

Press MODE (F4).   

4.

 

Use VALUE UP / DOWN buttons or the VALUE DIAL to select "2 Zones" if your ride cymbal is a dual-
zone or "3 Zones" if your ride cymbal is a three-zone. 

5.

 

When you have finished making your edits, you can press EXIT or any button that will enter another 
screen (e.g., DRUM KIT, UTILITY, etc.  Your edits will remain for that session (i.e., until you turn off the 
module).
