Re: Headphone volume: Yamaha answer

1999-11-10 by chris thackston

Wow! That would be very cool to have a Yamaha guy on our mailing list! But
this seems like a Band-Aid "fix". While turning down the accompaniment
might make the mix good, the overall volume level is still too low, in my
experience. Again, no big deal to me as I'm going through a mixer to boost
the headphone level anyway. The interface on the module in regards to the
access to the bass and snare levels is very clever. I just strongly suggest
a reconsideration of headphone output levels for DTXpress2.

I can.  In regard to your question on the DTXPRESS.  We discovered that
when the volume of the Drum set is not loud enough in comparison to the
internal songs or an external CD player and the volume of the drum set is
at the maximum, one would need to turn down the accompaniment volume when
using the internal songs and turn down the Aux in Volume when using an
external CD.  These can be found of the front panel of the DTXPRESS panel.
You can also adjust the volume of the Bass drum and snare drum from the
front panel as well as going into the voice function.  If you hold down the
shift button and rotate the Accomp volume, the snare drum volume will
increase.  Likewise, if you would like to increase the volume of the bass
drum separate from the voice function, you would hold the shift key and
rotate the click volume on the front panel.  I hope this answers your
questions.  Thank you.
