drumkit problem ?

[vanray]

am i right in saying that the drum set up window
only allows the fx to be changed , but Not the voice of a drum kit ?

so its not possible to have a snare from one drum kit
and add that to Kick Drum from a different drum kit ?

Also how do you access the ne Revo-Drums please ?
thankyou

As far as I know, you can change both of them just by clicking on the name of the kit - it should open a list of kits and parts.

yes that would make sense, but when you click on the /kit/category/instrument
nothing happens . very interesting.

Has anybody created a custom drum kit on the genos ?

Once you have highlighted the 'Kit' field, you'll need to use the inc/dec buttons or the data wheel to cycle through the different drum kits.
Unfortunately, you can't save your edits as a custom drum kit.  You can only save them as part of a user style.

I think you can only do this in YEM.
Not on the Genos.

Oh yes! that's it! for some reason I thought it was a drop-down list but it's not, thank's for the clarification!

thankyou jsb
it never occurred to me to spin the dial
i too, thought there was a drop down menu.

does the psr 970,allow custom drum kit creation
or is it the same as the genos
only in a style ?

You cann't make Custom Drums with Revo Drum in YEM.

But why not ?
you can do it for other drums on the Tyros 5

Tyros 5 dose not have Revo drums.

It is possible to replace a voice in the drumkit when you use Style creator , than you can mute the other voices
push start/stop and push Note button , now you see the Active key's on the keyboard in Yellow appearing , with the scroll wheel
you put the arrow above the sound you wil change than you can choose a other type of drum sound in Kit,Category and Instrument .
Than you can also modify the sound with the other parameters ( Cutof,resonance, etc.)
dont forget to save after you modified it :-)
It is one of the best improvements of the Genos

Hi Soryt, it's the same on the PSR S970; Drum setup; it's easy to change the kit and parts of the kit, great in an arranger! all the best Patrick

[valimaties]

Don't forget a thing: It must be only a single Drum Kit in all style parts. You cannot have multiple drums kits in different parts of style.

Example: You cannot have Standard Kit on Main A and Acoustic Kit on Main B. The settings from Drum Setup will be reset on changing between Main A and Main B

PS: But as a workaround, if you want more than one kit, you can select, from beginning,  a single Kit for all style parts, after that, change to style part you want a different kit, select for record the RHY1 or RHY2 channel (where you want another drum kit), press drum edit, and change the Kit from "Kit" button Like this, the style will retain the settings and you will have different drums kits on different style parts This approach will set a single key settings, so you have to do this setting for each key (/drum part - B2, C3, C#3, or what element you want from another drum kit).

I recommend after you make some changes to a drum kit, to do it also in YEM, and save it as a Custom Drum. Like this, you can use your new settings selecting your new Custom Drum Kit, and not making every time the settings...

I cant see why anyone would want a different drum kit on style variations. Surly it would sound strange.

Probably, it will sound strange... Surly, we can't say until we demonstrate

I think one month ago, someone ask if this could be done, because in a style he use a Pop kit and a Rock kit... So, I think there are people who use this

If you, or I, or "X", or "Y", does not use a feature, that don't mean anyone else could not use it or does not need it
I think we need to be more pliable/malleable, don't be so strict or restrictive with other's wishes

Hi Vali, in drum setup, i'm always just replacing some of the parts of the kit only; of course, the style will not sound the same as the original but it's important to change the snare for exemple by a bongo, .... and you've a new sound in the style!
Have a nice day Patrick

I have always used Drum Setup, even if in T5 I made it in YEM. I think Drums of Yamaha, at least TomToms has a lot of release , so I have to shorten the length.
I also made some custom drums using YEM in the past, changing elements from other kits, so I've used this feature.

Vali
