A Drum Program is set up a bit differently than non-drum Progs. This page shows the complete settings for a typical Drum Prog, A09:Total Kit.
(Complete settings for all 7 ROM Drum Progs plus more detailed explanations and figures appear in the Percussion Manual.)

Wave Shaping is a selectable way of modifying the Kit's sound. Technically, it distorts the signal, but not necessarily the type of distortion you associate with guitars or bad speakers.
For a discussion on Wave Shaping, read the tutorial on p. 70-71 in the Percussion Manual, or visit the Wave Shaping page of this site.
