Why aren’t rolls triggering correctly on my Alesis DM10?
Try adjusting the re-trigger settings. This setting adjusts how quickly the trigger will respond to repeated hits. A higher setting will eliminate any hits immediately after the first intentional hit, and a lower setting will allow successive hits to come through. This is useful if you need to eliminate accidental hits, or if the trigger is not responding fast enough to quick playing.
- From the main screen, press EXT TRIG
- Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the Input field
- Use the VALUE/TEMPO dial to choose the trigger you want to adjust
- Press F2 TRIG
- Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the ReTrigger field
- Use the VALUE/TEMPO dial to increase or decrease the ReTrigger setting of the affected trigger
- Press the DRUM KIT button to return to the main screen
Once you’ve made any adjustments to your settings, be sure to save them so they will be retained when you turn off your DM10. To do this, you will also need to temporarily disable Write Protection. See this article to learn more about how to do this.
