Custom Buttons

• Impact Button: This button can be found in the Whoosh Hits and Booms instruments. When engaged it will eliminate the whoosh of the sound and leave you with just the IMPACT.
• Fast Playing Button: This button can be found in the Epic Trailer Kit instrument. When engaged it will apply processing that is best suited for faster percussive patterns.

Keyboard Guide

• Velocity Mapping – In the Epic Trailer Kit the velocities are mapped in two different ways:
  • Velocity Layers: The green key on C1 allows you to play all articulations using the traditional velocity layers method
  • Articulation Mapping: Each articulation is mapped across the coloured keys that range from C2 – G4.
    • Yellow – Soft articulations
    • Blue – Medium articulations
    • Pink – Hard articulations
    • Orange – Xtra Hard articulations
• Keyswitches: these can be found in the lower end of the keyboard. These will be marked in blue and the pitch you have selected will be marked in red.
• Root Key: In the Drones and Braaams instruments the root key will be labelled in red.
