A USB COMPUTER port
Connect your computer to the TD-50X’s USB port via USB
cable (p. 43). You can use DAW software to record a TD-50X
performance as audio or MIDI, or you can use the TD-50X to hear
sound that’s played back from the computer.
B SD card slot
Insert a commercially available SD card (SDHC cards (up to 32 GB)
are supported).
You can save the songs and data from the TD-50X to an SD card.
You can also use an SD card to import user samples and export the
songs that you recorded, among other uses.
Before using an SD card for the first time, you must format it on the
TD-50X (p. 56).
* Never turn off the power or remove the SD cards while the screen
indicates “Processing...”
* Some memory card types or memory cards from some
manufacturers may not record or play back properly on the unit.

Mounting on a stand
Use the included sound module mounting plate to attach the TD-50X to a drum stand (e.g.,
the MDS or PDS series; sold separately).
Use the screws at the bottom of the TD-50X to mount the sound module as shown in the
illustration.
* Do not use screws other than those on the bottom of the TD-50X. Using improper
screws may cause the unit to malfunction.
* When turning the unit over, be careful so as to protect the buttons and knobs from
damage. Also, handle the unit carefully; do not drop it.
MEMO
The All Purpose Clamp (APC-33; sold separately) can be attached in case you want to
mount the TD-50X on a cymbal stand or other such stand. The unit can be mounted on
a pipe with a diameter between 10.5 and 28.6 mm.
