3.2.3 Details Mode
Details mode gives you a more detailed view of
each pad, showing the choke group, hold, aux,
and output settings for the pad.
The volume, pan, edit, mute, etc. controls work
exactly as in Overview Mode.
The Hold button, when activated, causes the pad
to ignore any MIDI note-off messages and play to
the end of the sound or sample. This is very useful
when working with the Cubase Drum Editor, which
sends note-offs after a very short time causing some
samplers to ‘cut’ the sound.
The Choke button is used to assign the pad to a choke group.
When a pad assigned to a choke group is triggered, it ‘cuts’ all other
pads in that group. This is very useful for programming authentic-sounding
HiHats - it allows you to cut any open hats whenever a closed hat is played.
The Output button allows you to assign the pad to one of the DR-008’s
multi-outs (multi-out enabled host applications only).
The Aux faders control the level of signal sent to the selected Aux Output
(multi-outs enabled host applications only). Right-click the Aux fader to select
the operating mode (pre or post fader) and destination output for the aux signal.
3.2.4 Mix Mode
Mix mode provides large faders for fine control
of the volume of each pad, and larger, easier-
to-use mute, solo, aux, etc. controls. Aside
from their appearance, the controls work
largely the same as Details mode. The important differences are
the additional volume faders and pan knobs, and the fact that the
Aux Send destinations and modes are assigned by a left-click above
the knob, rather than by right-clicking the knob itself. Because this
mode shows 24 out of the 96 channels at any one time, it allows
you to navigate between the fader banks with the octave buttons
or with the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen.
