I looked all through the PA 900 manual and could not find how to access the "ambience" setting for the drum tracks. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi Chuck
There is an "Ambient Kit" on the PA900 but no ambient settings.
PA3X has Ambient vol and ambient tone settings in STYLE PLAY mode under "Drum Edit parameters.
PA900 User Manual page 121 wrote: |
DRUM EDIT PARAMETERS:-
Sound parameters - Meaning
Volume - Instrument’s Volume.
EQ Hi - Equalization, High band.

goes from zero (at the moment when you strike a
key) to it’s maximum level.
Decay - Decay time. Time to go from the final Attack level to
the minimum level.

Thanks Pete. I referred to the Quick Guide when I was searching for Ambient information. Also while I was watching the DVD on the 900 the narrator made quick mention of being able to turn up the ambience on the drums by using the value wheel. I was curious to see how that worked but couldn't find any information. I do have the PA3 and the 900, so I'll keep fooling around until I figure things out.
Hope your holiday was a good one. Take care. Chuck _________________ PA4X & PA900
