Roland TD-10 - Manual (Page 99)

Tap: This function is a great performance tool! For
example if you specify “Tap” for a pattern
which contains a melody line and assign this
pattern to a pad, you can play the notes of the
melody in order each time you strike the pad.
You can set the “Reset Time” so that the pattern
will automatically return to the beginning if that
time interval elapses without that pad being hit
again. For example, you can play a bass line
with your kick drum and the two sounds will be
perfectly “tight.”
* Reset Time (Off, 0.1–4.0 seconds)
This is the time interval that resets the pattern being used. If it
is set to “Off,” this function will be disabled.
