Concerning pads and pedals
● Playing velocity doesn’t correspond
to the resulting sound
First refer to the “Quick Start” “Specify the pads that the TD-
10 will use” (p. 29) and make sure that the basic settings are
correct. If this does not solve the problem or if you are using
pads made by another manufacturer, refer to “Adjusting the
sensitivity of a pad ” (p. 39) and make detailed settings.
● An instrument other than the one
assigned is heard
When you hit a pad have the head/rim assignments been
inverted? Also, simultaneously striking the head and rim
(Rim Shot) will trigger the instrument assigned to the rim. If
you wish to play the sound that is assigned to the head, be
sure to strike only the head.
● Have you changed the “SCAN
TIME” setting (p. 111) after selecting
the “TRIGGER TYPE” (p. 108)?
The head tension adjustment (p. 110) does not work correct-
ly when the “SCAN TIME” setting is excessively low. This
setting is automatically set to the most efficient values for
each pad when you select the “TRIGGER TYPE” again.
