Response

• Volume : Sets dynamics according to velocity
  The smaller the amount, the less dynamic range (less effected by velocity)
  This is great if you are looking for steady volume.
• Filter : Sets tonality according to velocity
  The smaller the amount, low velocity notes have high frequencies cut
  This is great when you want ghost notes to be less obvious.

Pitch

This sets the kit’s tuning (pitch).

• Main : Adjusts the kit’s pitch in cents
• OH/Room : Adjusts the OH/ROOM mic sound’s pitch in cents

Volume Envelope

By setting a volume curve,
the kit has a tighter tone, leading to a groovier performance.

While the drums play,
slowly lower “Sus.Time””Release” to adjust the feel.
