Setup Manual for DT50S/DT50K
This manual describes how to correctly connect drum triggers (DT50S/DT50K) to your drum trig-
ger module and set parameters on your module to use the triggers. Refer to the Owner’s Manual
that came with your DT50S/DT50K for details on how to use drum triggers and mount them on
acoustic drums.

Depending on the version of the firmware, you may need to update it. Before you connect the module
to your DT50S/DT50K triggers, be sure to check the version of your module’s firmware.
1. While holding down the [SHIFT] button, turn on the drum trigger module.
2. Confirm the version displayed on-screen.
After you confirm the version, select the appropriate setup method.

This section describes the basic setup for connecting your DT50S/DT50K triggers to your module,
and how to automatically set parameters by using Trigger Setup. With this method, you do not need
to select voices individually. You can play snare, tom, or kick drum sounds simply by selecting a Pre-
set kit.
1. Connecting to the Drum Trigger Module
Connect your drum triggers to the jacks on your DTX502 indicated below by using the stereo audio cables that came with the
triggers. Refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with your DT50S/DT50K for details on how to use the drum triggers and
mount them on acoustic drums.
NOTE
• The following jacks on the DTX502 each comprise a pair of mono inputs (L: trigger, R: trigger): [wTOM1/!0], [eTOM2/!1], [rTOM3/!2], and
[uKICK/i]. In this basic setup, the snare drum (DT50S) is connected to the [uKICK/i] jack and the bass drum (DT50K) to the [qSNARE]
jack in order to produce two sounds on the snare drum, one for a head shot and one for a rim shot. Note that in this case the connected drums
will not match the jack names.
• If you wish to produce a sound for tom rim shots as well, refer to Advanced Setup.

Input Exchange
Because the above connection consists of connecting the snare drum (DT50S) to the [uKICK/i] jack and the bass drum (DT50K) to the
[qSNARE] jack, the connected drums will not match the jack names. In order to avoid confusion, if you have selected “DT50” or “DT50Mesh”,
the Input Exchange function will automatically turn on to swap the snare and kick.

This section describes how to set individual pad types and voices for drum triggers without using
Trigger Setup.
Use this method for more advanced configurations such as mounting a DT50S on a tom in order to
produce two sounds, one for a head shot and one for a rim shot.
A high degree of customization is possible, but you will need to adjust the parameters yourself.
1. Connecting to the Drum Trigger Module
Connect your drum triggers to the jacks on your DTX502 by using the stereo audio cables that came with the triggers. Refer to
the Owner’s Manual that came with your DT50S/DT50K for details on how to use the drum triggers and mount them on acous-
tic drums.
2. Setting Parameters on the Drum Trigger Module
This section describes how to set parameters to play voices by using signals from DT50S/DT50K triggers connected to your
drum trigger module.
2-1. Selecting the Pad Type
Set the pad type for the DT50S/DT50K connected to the trigger input jack. Make sure to select the appropriate pad type for the
drum trigger in order to take full advantage of its functions.
1. While holding down the [SHIFT] button, press the [SAVE/ENTER] button to access Menu Mode.
2. Turn the Data Dial to select the Trigger area, and then press the [<]/[>] buttons to select the TRG3 page.
3. Strike the head of the connected drum to select the trigger input (q). Alternatively, you can change the selection by holding
down the [SHIFT] button and pressing the [<]/[>] buttons.
NOTE
The following jacks on the DTX502 each comprise a pair of mono inputs (L: trigger, R: trigger): [wTOM1/!0], [eTOM2/!1], [rTOM3/!2], and
[uKICK/i]. (Refer to the diagram below).
If you wish to produce two sounds with a DT50S (which is designed for snares and toms), one for a head shot and one for a rim shot, connect the
trigger to one of the jacks indicated above.

Save your pad type settings on the drum trigger module as a User trigger setup to ensure they are not lost.
1. Press the [SAVE/ENTER] button.
2. Turn the Data Dial to select the User trigger setup number (18 to 33) in which you wish to save your settings.
3. If necessary, change the setup name. Press the [<]/[>] buttons to move the cursor to the character you wish to change, and
then turn the Data Dial to change it.
4. Press the [SAVE/ENTER] button. To cancel the process without saving any settings, press the [ ] button.
5. To proceed, press the [SAVE/ENTER] button once again.
2-3. Selecting a Voice
Select a voice for each input jack.
1. Press the [KIT] button to access the Kit Mode.
2. Navigate to the KIT2 page using the [<]/[>] buttons.
3. Strike the head or rim whose instrument voice(s) you wish to change. Alternatively, you can change the selection by holding
down the [SHIFT] button and pressing the [<]/[>] buttons.
This changes the instrument to which the voice will be assigned.
4. Use the [<]/[>] buttons to move the cursor to the voice category (q) and/or voice number (w), and turn the Data Dial to

TIPS!
This section provides tips on how to make your drum triggers even easier to use.
Adjusting the Noise Filter
Follow the steps below to make adjustments in situations where, for whatever reason, noise enters the trigger signal when
a pad is struck or other instability in trigger signals leads to sounds not being generated correctly.
1. While holding down the [SHIFT] button, press the [SAVE/ENTER] button to access Menu Mode.
2. Turn the Data Dial to select the Trigger area, and then press the [<]/[>] buttons to navigate to the Noise Filter page
(TRG9).
3. Strike the head of the connected drum to select the trigger input (q), and then turn the Data Dial to set the noise filter
(w).
4. Save your settings on the drum trigger module as a User trigger setup to ensure they are not lost. Refer to “2-2. Saving
Pad Types” in this manual for details on how to save settings.
Adjusting Head and Rim Balance
Follow the steps below to adjust the balance between the head and rim of the snare or other drum on which a DT50S is
mounted.
This setting will only work when you have selected “DT50S SN”, “DT50S tomH”, or “DT50S tomL” for the Pad Type
parameter.
1. While holding down the [SHIFT] button, press the [SAVE/ENTER] button to access Menu Mode.
2. Turn the Data Dial to select the Trigger area, and then press the [<]/[>] buttons to navigate to the Balance page
(TRG3).
3. Strike the head of the connected drum to select the trigger input (q), and then turn the Data Dial to set the balance
(w).
4. Save your settings on the drum trigger module as a User trigger setup to ensure they are not lost. Refer to “2-2. Saving
Pad Types” in this manual for details on how to save settings.
q
w
HINT
The larger the value, the more noise and unintentional sounds will be filtered. Larger noise filter settings can, in cases where the
drum is struck multiple times in rapid succession, result in sounds being dropped. Be sure to adjust the setting to best match your
style of drumming.
q
w
HINT
If the head sounds when the rim is struck, move the balance further to the R side (i.e., raise the setting) to ensure that the rim
sounds. Similarly, if the rim sounds when the head is struck, move the balance further to the H side (i.e., lower the setting) to
ensure that the head sounds instead. Adjust the value until you reach the optimal balance.
Update before Using (recommended)

This section provides tips on how to make your drum triggers even easier to use.
Adjusting Head and Rim Balance
Follow the steps below to adjust the balance between the head and rim of the snare or other drum on which a DT50S is
mounted.
This setting will only work when you have selected “DT50S Snare”, “DT50S HiTom”, or “DT50SLoTom” for the Pad
Type parameter.
1. Press the [MENU] button to access the Menu area.
2. Use the dial to navigate to the TRIGGER/PAD/PAD TYPE page.

HINT
If the head sounds when the rim is struck, move the balance further to the R side (i.e., raise the setting) to ensure that the rim
sounds. Similarly, if the rim sounds when the head is struck, move the balance further to the H side (i.e., lower the setting) to
ensure that the head sounds instead. Adjust the value until you reach the optimal balance.
NOTE
If noise enters the trigger signal or sounds are not being generated correctly, adjust the noise filter. For details, refer to “Noise Filter Table

trigger to the five [oKICK/!0], [wTOM1], [eTOM2], [rTOM3], and [!1] jacks.
Adding triggers is a great way to expand your performance options by playing voices, waves, and songs; assigning func-
tions to the triggers; and so on.
