Setting the Pad’s Minimum Level (TRIG THRESHOLD)
By adjusting the TRIG THRESHOLD in the SYSTEM parameter group you can have a pad produce a
trigger signal only when struck with more than a certain level of force (a “threshold”). This can be used
to prevent a pad from sounding in response to extraneous vibrations from another pad. However, if
you strike the pad with a force less than the Trigger Threshold, it will not sound. In the diagram below,
the pad will sound for 2, but not for 1 or 3. This parameter can be set over a range of 0–15.

This parameter is set for all 8 pads, i.e., the same value applies to all pads. However, this parameter
can be set independently for each connected external pad.
