• Page 11: 1: Setting Up

  The DM5 comes with a power adapter suitable for the voltage of the country it is shipped to (either 110 or 220V, 50 or 60 Hz). With the DM5 off, plug the small end of the power adapter cord into the DM5’s [POWER] socket and the male (plug) end into a source of AC power.

• Page 12: About Audio Cables

  The DM5 has two Main and two Aux audio outputs on the rear panel, as well as a headphone output on the front panel. These can provide an amplification system or mixer with several different audio hookup options: •…

• Page 13: Midi Hookup

  MIDI H OOKUP If you are using a MIDI keyboard or sequencer, connect its [MIDI OUT] to the DM5’s [MIDI IN]. If you have another MIDI device you wish to control from the same keyboard or sequencer, connect the DM5’s [MIDI OUT/THRU] to the other device’s [MIDI IN].

• Page 14: External Triggers Hookup

  Hi Agogo Note: Drum Set 18 uses a different set of default note numbers. The trigger default note numbers for all pre set drum sets can be found in the DM5 Factory Drum Set Reference Chart. For more information about setting up the External Trigger parameters in the DM5, see pages 18 through 22, and Chapter 6.

  Is the volume of the DM5 turned down? Turn on the [POWER] switch on the DM5 front panel. Upon power-up, the DM5 will recall the last selected Drum Set, and will display the page that was last selected. Press [DRUM SET].

• Page 16: What’s A Drum Set

  When you select a Drum Set, all of its sounds and parameter settings are recalled to recreate the original kit. The DM5 provides up to 21 internal Drum Sets. A Drum Set contains 61 notes. Each note is assigned a voice. Each voice is an actual digital recording, called a sample.

• Page 17: Choosing Voices In A Drum Set

  Your First Session With The DM5: Chapter 2 HOOSING OICES IN A In this section, we will choose Voices for a Drum Set. There are many other parameters of a Drum Set we may wish to edit, however. Refer to Chapter 4 for more information about editing.

• Page 18: Storing An Edited Drum Set

  ECALLING THE ACTORY The DM5 includes 21 factory-programmed Drum Sets that are useful in a wide range of applications. These are permanently stored in ROM (Read Only Memory), so even if you edit one of them or replace one by storing a Drum Set into its memory location, you can recall any of the original presets whenever you want.

• Page 19: Onnections

  The [MIDI OUT/THRU] connector can be switched to a “Thru” mode so that it carries a replica (or echo) of the messages appearing at the DM5’s [MIDI IN], allowing you to trigger other devices from the same controller which is feeding the DM5. Simply connect the DM5’…

• Page 20: Example 1: Using Amidi Keyboard

  (when the keyboard is set to that channel) both the DM5 and the other device(s) will be played simultaneously. Note: If you are not sure which MIDI channel your keyboard is set to, set the DM5 to MIDI Channel 00 (omni mode); this selects all 16 MIDI channels.

• Page 21: Example 2: Using Amidi Sequencer

  As both a controller and a sound module (both MIDI In and Out). As described in the previous sections, you will need to set your MIDI Channel and Root Note parameter’s in the DM5 to your liking in order to make use out of either of these possible setups.

  “Thru mode”, “Echo”, etc.). If the sequencer is echoing back what it receives from the DM5, it is not necessary for the external triggers to directly play the DM5, since this would result in each note being played twice (once by the trigger and then again when the note is echoed back by the sequencer).

  DM5s in a chain as you like to accomodate your needs. For example, connecting 8 DM5s would provide 128-note polyphony. To do this, connect the first DM5’s [MIDI OUT/THRU] to the second DM5’s [MIDI IN]. This connection requires that the MIDI Thru parameter be set to Overflow Mode (see below).

  Gain. This is the signal strength that the transducer is sending to the triggers in the DM5. It’s adjustment is very similar to that of a tape recorder’s VU meter. With the gain threshold set too low, soft hits may never be recognized.

• Page 25
  For average play, (hits ranging from very soft to very hard) the default setting of 4 will give you the full range of sensitivity which corresponds to MIDI velocities 1 through 127. Note: Velocity Curve 0, Unassigned, is fully explained on page 44. DM5 Reference Manual…
• Page 26
  The factors that most effect the performance of triggers will be your hardware configuration, the different types of pads or drums being used, and the environment in which you will be using the DM5. Crosstalk Note: In our Crosstalk scenario we will use two pads, a snare pad and the tom 1 pad, both mounted on a single stand.
• Page 27
  At times the tom 1 and the tom 2 pad are triggering when not being played. This is because the DM5 is interpreting the signals from the stand vibrations as hits. By adjusting the Noise parameter the DM5 can determine which signals are vibrations caused by the surrounding noise level, and which signals are actual hits.

• Page 28: Footswitch Hookup

  If your footswitch seems to respond backwards (notes sustain unless the footswitch is pressed), turn off the DM5, make sure the footswitch plug is fully inserted into the footswitch jack, then turn the power back on.

  EFINITIONS OICE Each time the DM5 receives a MIDI or acoustic trigger, it plays a voice. A voice is a sound-generating element with several variable parameters: Drum sound, tuning, volume, output assignment (the voice’s audio output can go to either one of two sets of stereo outputs), panning (the voice’s audio output can be positioned at any of the…

• Page 30: Midi Note Range

  Chapter 4: Overview Often the default is “whatever was selected last.” Example: If the DM5 was set to Drum Set 14 just before you shut off power, upon power-up the DM5 will return to Drum Set 14. MIDI N ANGE The DM5’s sounds can be assigned to any note within a 5-octave (61 note) range,…

  DM5. Otherwise, some of the sound from one drum will leak into the other output. Separate Percussion/Drum Outputs: Standard drum kit sounds can be spread in stereo and assigned to the main outputs, with percussion sounds spread in stereo and assigned to the Aux outputs.

  The classic use of this is with hi-hats; a closed high-hat will cut off an open hi-hat, and hitting an open hi-hat sound will cut off a closed hi-hat. DM5 Reference Manual…

  Chapter 4: Overview The DM5 can play up to 16 voices at a time, so it’s possible to run out of voices if you play a flurry of notes and have lots of drum sounds assigned to Multi mode. If 16 sounds are playing and you ask the DM5 to play another one, the sound that’s…

• Page 39: 5: Midi F

  The Root Note determines the lowest note in the “window” of 61 consecutive MIDI notes to which the DM5 will respond. When set to its default value of 36, the DM5’s note range window stretches from MIDI note number 36 to 96. When the Root Note is altered, all drum note and trigger assignments shift together along with it in parallel.

  [MIDI IN] jack. When set to off, the [MIDI OUT/THRU] jack serves as a MIDI Out only from the DM5. Input data present at the DM5’s [MIDI IN] is not passed through.

• Page 41: Local Control

  The solution is to either turn the sequencer’s echoing feature off, or turn the DM5’s Local parameter off. The latter is a better choice if you intend to use the DM5’s triggers to record tracks on the sequencer for other MIDI devices (since you wouldn’t want to hear the DM5 play when you hit the external triggers).

• Page 42
  With the Ctrl parameter selected (flashing), turn the [VALUE] knob to select a status of On (the DM5 responds to controller messages) or OFF (the DM5 ignores controller messages).

• Page 43: Program Change Table

  The DM5 converts its program data into a special type of MIDI data, called System Exclusive or SysEx data, that can be sent over MIDI. This data can go to another DM5 or to a MIDI system exclusive storage device, a computer running System Exclusive storage software, or a musical instrument capable of recording System Exclusive data.

• Page 44: Receiving Data From Another Midi Device

  Note: The DM5 is capable of sending and receiving its Trigger Setup data to and from not only another DM5, but a D4 as well. This is important if you are upgrading from a D4 to the DM5, since you can transfer the Trigger Setup information instead of setting it up manually from scratch.

• Page 45: Xternal Riggering

  It may take considerable experimentation to achieve reliable triggering…then again, it may not. At some point, you’ll hit on the right combination of transducer placement and DM5 parameter values necessary for proper triggering.

• Page 46: About Trigger Parameters

  (or drum) will trigger from stand or head vibrations. This is how it works: First, you strike a pad and the DM5 triggers its sound. Shortly after this hit the DM5 receives a secondary, “softer” signal from a nearby pad. Before the DM5 will play this softer signal, it will scan the other inputs to determine whether this was a legitimate hit, or simply a vibration from a stand or head.

• Page 47
  External Triggering: Chapter 6 This chart represents three signals which are “seen” by the DM5. Signal 1 is a legitimate hit from the snare pad. Signal 2 is the Tom 1 pad, but it is not a hit. It is the pad being triggered by stand vibrations from the first snare hit. Signal 3 is a second «real»…

  Nois. (Noise). The Noise floor is the signal level threshold a vibration or sound must exceed before it can trigger a drum sound. When selecting lower values, very soft signals (hits) will trigger the DM5. While this allows for the greatest sensitivity, there’s a chance that unwanted, exterior signals such as vibrations from drum risers, bass cabinets, or even people jumping up and down on the dance floor may trigger a sound.

• Page 49: Trigger Selection

  Note: The Noise parameter in the DM5 is similar to Xtalk in that the level you set determines whether the trigger will fire on “softer” signals. But there is a difference.

• Page 50: Trigger Note Assignment

  Example: A hard hitting player might have a difficult time in playing the softer velocity sounds available in the DM5 due to the high impact of most of his hits. Using a lower Velocity Curve setting (1 — 3) would require a much harder strike to generate a full MIDI velocity of 127, and make it much easier to obtain the more “subtle”…

• Page 51
  In essence, the DM5 isolates the bass from the Noise floor and “thinks” the bass is a another drum pad. It will now treat it the same as any other pad and “filter”…

• Page 52: Crosstalk

  Start by slightly lowering the Gain setting for the pad. This should make it possible to lower the Xtalk value, which will allow the pad sensitivity to increase. With some experimentation and time, you should be able to find the right combination. DM5 Reference Manual…

• Page 53: Decay

  You can use either a normally closed or normally open momentary contact footswitch. Plug it in to the rear panel [FOOTSWITCH] jack before powering up the DM5; on power up, it will automatically sense the footswitch polarity and calibrate itself accordingly. If your footswitch seems to respond “backwards,” make sure the footswitch plug is fully inserted into the footswitch jack, then turn power off and on.

• Page 54: Understanding Hi Hat Pedal Mode

  EDAL This is a feature for hardcore drummers. It’s a little complicated, but hang in there— the DM5 finally gives you a way to get truly realistic hi hat effects with electronic drums. An acoustic hi hat produces three main types of sound: •…

  Disconnect any cables connected to the MIDI IN jack, and make sure that a sequencer or keyboard is not sending messages to the DM5 that would make it behave erratically (such as a long stream of pitch bend messages on 16 channels simultaneously).

• Page 60: Maintenance

  ERVICING TO LESIS We believe that the DM5 is one of the most reliable modules that can be made using current technology, and should provide years of trouble-free use. However, should problems occur, DO NOT attempt to service the unit yourself. The full AC line voltage, as well as high voltage/high current DC voltages, are present at several points within the chassis.

• Page 61: Appendix B: Midi Supplement

  UPPLEMENT MIDI B ASICS Most current electronic instruments and signal processors, including the DM5, contain an internal computer. Computers and music have been working together for decades, which is not surprising considering music’s mathematical basis (consider frequencies, harmonics, vibrato rates, tunings, etc.). In the mid-70s, microcomputers became inexpensive enough to be built into consumer-priced musical instruments.
