Assembling your kit
Step 1 - Drum Rack

Step 2 - Attach Cymbal Arms

The Drum rack will be fully assembled in the box.

Insert each cymbal arm into the rack clamp. Insert (Long) hi-hat arm
on the left-side rack arm’s cymbal clamp.

Remove the drum rack from the box and tighten the connecting
clamps until the kit is stable.

Step 3 - Attach Cymbal Pads

Step 4 - Attach Drum Module

Remove wing nuts from cymbal tilters. Place cymbal pads on tilter
assembly. Re-attach and tighten wing nuts.

Loosen wing screw on the module mount located on the crossbar. Place
drum module into drum clamp. Tighten wing screw to secure module.

Step 5 - Position Pedals & Attach Drums
Place the hi-hat pedal on the floor and to the left, as illustrated
below. Place the bass pedal on the floor in the center of the rack
as illustrated.
Loosen the wing screws on the drum mount clamps on the center
crossbar and the right side rack arm. Insert the straight rods into
clamps and place the drums on the rods. Place the tom pads into the
mounts and tighten the wing screws.
Place the L arm into the drum mount clamp on the left side rack arm
(next to the Hi Hat). Slide the snare pad onto the L arm and tighten
the wing screw.

Step 6 - Connect Module to the Pads
Using the provided cables, connect the ¼” jacks to the corresponding
drum pads, cymbal pads and kick pad. (Cables are marked
accordingly). The pin connection will attach to the serial port of the
sound module. Assembly complete.

C

NOTE: The voice of the hi-hat pad is controlled by the hi-hat pedal. Similar to
a real drum kit, the hi-hat pad functions as an ‘open hi-hat’ when the pedal
is released. When the pedal is pressed down, it functions as a ‘closed hi-hat’.
Use cable strips to retain cable to rack.

this illustration.

Connecting External Audio Devices
The audio output from an external source can be connected to the
AUX INPUT jack on the rear panel and mixed with the sound of the
drum module. This is ideal if you want to play along with songs or

Connecting USB MIDI
Your drum module is USB class-compliant. This means you can
plug it into a USB class compliant host (such as most modern MAC
and PC computers as well as many tablet devices), and it should
be recognized immediately. There are no drivers to install; simply
plug n’ play.
If you connect the drum module to a computer, you can trigger
software programs or record your performance into a MIDI
sequencing application. Check the operation and setup instructions
for the software you intend to use for more details.
USB cable not included.

Connecting Headphones
Your headphones can be connected to the SD350. The headphone
jack is located on the front left side of module. Use the MASTER
VOLUME knob to adjust the headphone volume.

Parameter definitions
Retrig-C (Retrigger cancel)
Retrigger Cancel prevents retriggering from occurring. Although
setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, it then becomes
easy for sounds to be omitted when the drums is played fast (roll
etc.). Set this to the lowest value possible while still ensuring that
there is no retriggering.
Threshold
This setting allows a trigger signal to be received only when the
pad is struck harder than a specified force. This can be used to
prevent a pad from sounding in response to peripheral vibrations
from another pad.
Curve (Trigger curve)
This setting allows you to control the relation between the velocity
(striking force) and changes in volume (the dynamic curve.) Adjust
this curve until the response feels as natural as possible.
X- Talk (Pad Crosstalk)

MIDI Note

Pad

When two pads are mounted on the same stand, the vibration
produced by hitting one pad may trigger the sound from another
pad unintentionally, this is called crosstalk. You can avoid this
problem by adjusting Crosstalk Cancel on the pad that is sounding
inadvertently. If the value is set too high, then when two pads are
played simultaneously, the one that is struck less forcefully will not
sound. Setting the value too low may result in crosstalk.
