Re: pad in to the kp65(kick pad)

2004-06-09 by Kevin Richard

I agree with you guys... I'm just wondering how/what triggered the 
cowbell (rim) sound when I was plugging something (now I can't repeat 
it or recall what it was) into the "extra" input.... BTW, what is 
that input for if you can't trigger anything with it?

Something caused the cowbell to sound but now I can't duplicate it... 
but i'm not crazy... otherwise I wouldn't have known their to be a 
cowbell there.
