Troubleshooting
This chapter outlines points to check if you experience
problems, and what to do about them.
Problems With the Overall
Sound
Intended Sound Not Produced
Are the pad sensitivity settings correct?
Make sure that the following parameters are set to correct
value.
System Settings:
PAD Sens (p. 70), DBEAM Sens (p. 69)
Patch Settings:

The HPD-15 adjusts the sensitivity of the D Beam
autmatically for the brightness of its location when the power
is turned on. Do not shut the window of the D Beam until the
patch name is displayed.
If you connect the hi-hat control pedal (FD-7, optional), the
HPD-15 check the position of the pedal when the power is
turned on. Do not step on the pedal until the patch name is
displayed.
