Cannot Make Cross Sticks/

Cross Sticks Not Sounding

Do you have a pad connected to a trigger
input that is capable of handling cross sticks?
(p. 34)

➝ When using the PD-80R or PD-120 to play cross sticks,

connect to Trigger Input 2 (SNARE).

Has the instrument that can be used for
playing the cross sticks been selected?
(KIT/INST; p. 60, Drum Instrument List; p. 120)

➝ Use the instrument with the “XS.”

Are you playing the cross stick correctly?
(p. 37)

➝ For cross stick, make sure your hand or stick does not

touch or strike the head.

No Sound When the Pad is Struck

Softly

Did you strike a pad or press the pedal at any
time from when the TD-6’s power was turned
on until the kit name appeared in the display?

Using the procedure of p. 24, turn the power on once again

without playing any pads or pedals during the TD-6’s

warm up.

Precautions When Turning On the Power

When the TD-6 is turned on, it carries out a check of the
pads. If you strike a pad or press the pedal anytime during
this process, the pads cannot be checked properly,
resulting in incorrect functioning of the pads.
