DRUM KIT
MIDI note numbers transmitted and received by the snare
Parameter Explanation
SNARE <HEAD> SNARE <RIM>
SNARE <BRUSH> MIDI note number transmitted and received by brush sweep
SNARE <XSTICK> MIDI note number transmitted and received by cross stick
MIDI note number transmitted and received by head shot and rim shot
When setting multiple pads to the same note number
When playing the internal sound generator of the TD-50, if an incoming note number is assigned to more than one pad, that note plays the instrument of the pad with the lowest trigger input number. If the same note number is assigned to both the head and the rim, the head instrument is sounded.
MEMO
An asterisk (*) appears at the right of the note number for trigger inputs that are not sounded.
Example:
Note number “38 (D 2)” is set for the head and rim of trigger input 2 SNARE and the head of trigger input 3 TOM 1. In this case, when note number 38 (D2) is received, the instrument assigned to the head of trigger input 2 SNARE is played.
About the gate time
Percussion sound modules normally produce sound only in response to “Note on” messages, and ignore “Note o” messages. However general­purpose sound modules or samplers do receive the note-o messages that are transmitted and respond by turning o the sound.
Since gate time is normally not necessary for a percussion sound module, this is set to the minimum value when the unit is shipped from the factory. If a note-o message is received while the sound module has this setting, it is received as an extremely brief note that has almost no time to be heard, and is nearly inaudible. (Alternatively, it is possible that this could be heard as an unwanted noise.) To avoid this, specify the note duration of the MIDI performance data that is produced when you strike each pad.
* If the same note number is sounded again in an overlapping manner, a note-o is transmitted before transmitting note-on, even if it is
within the gate time.

After the sound begins, the pitch gradually rises (falls). Positive (+) values make the pitch start high and then fall; negative (-) values make the pitch start
low and then rise. Larger values produce greater change.
* In some cases, changing the Pitch setting by a large amount might limit the Pitch Sweep eect.

MEMO
When you specify the trigger type, the trigger parameters (with the exception of certain parameters such as cross-stick cancel) are set to optimal values. These values are only general guidelines; you can make ne adjustments as appropriate according to how you attach the pad and how you use it.
Species the trigger input to which a digitally-connected pad is assigned. A digitally connected pad for which you select “N/A” is not used; the settings of the pad connected
to the TRIGGER IN jack are applied.
* Even if this is assigned to “HI-HAT,” hi-hat open/close techniques cannot be performed.
You can adjust the sensitivity of the pads to accommodate your personal playing style. Increasing this value increases the sensitivity, so that even soft strikes on the pad are sounded at
high volume. Decreasing this value decreases the sensitivity, so that even strong strikes on the pad are sounded at low volume.
Adjusts the balance between the force of striking the rim or edge and the loudness of the sound. If you increase this value, even soft strikes on the rim are sounded at high volume. If you decrease
this value, even strong strikes on the rim are sounded at low volume. This is available for pads that support rim shots.
Extent of opening Hi-Hat The bigger the value is, the wider the opening extent is.
Reference
For details on how to adjust the oset, refer to “Reference Manual.” You can make ne adjustments to the hi-hat parameters as necessary.
Amount of strength to cancel the bow and edge noise when you play foot close. The bigger the value is, the more dicult to have a noise excluding the foot close.

The standard setting. This produces the most natural correspondence between playing dynamics and volume change.
Compared to “LINEAR,” strong dynamics produce a greater change.
Compared to “LINEAR,” a soft playing produces a greater change.
Extreme changes are made in response to playing dynamics.
Very little dynamic response, making it easy to maintain strong volume levels. If you’re using a drum trigger as an external pad, these settings will produce reliable triggering.

Parameter Value Explanation
THRESHOLD tab
This setting lets you prevent a drum from being triggered unwantedly by a strike on a drum to which no drum trigger is attached, or by sound or vibration from the surroundings (noise cancellation).
This noise cancel function can be used if you use a stereo cable to connect an “RT-30K” or “RT-30HR” drum trigger to the following TRIGGER IN jacks and specify the Trig Type.

* The “RT-30H” does not support the noise cancel function.
If the rim sound is heard when you strike the head strongly, increase this value. If the head sound is heard when you play an open rim shot, decrease this value. If the head sound is heard when you softly play a rim shot, decrease this value.
MEMO
If the rim shot sound is heard when you play a head shot, or if a head shot sound is heard when you play a rim shot, make small changes to the Head/Rim Adjust values while you continue trying out the results. Extreme changes to the values will cause the wrong sound to be heard when you strike the pad, for example producing the rim shot sound when you play a head shot.
For a pad that is connected to a TRIGGER IN jack, this species the force at which to switch between the cross stick sound and open rim shot sound.
Setting this to a higher value makes it easier to get cross stick sounds. When set to “0,” playing a cross stick produces the open rim shot sound.
For a digitally connected pad that allows cross stick technique, playing a cross stick with a strike that is stronger than the value of this setting produces the open rim shot sound.
* For a pad that is connected to a TRIGGER IN jack, be aware that if
this value is raised excessively, the cross stick sound will also be heard when you play an open rim shot.
Trigger signal detection time Since the rise time of the trigger signal waveform may dier slightly
depending on the characteristics of each pad or acoustic drum trigger (drum pickup), you may notice that identical hits (velocity) may produce sound at dierent volumes. If this occurs, you can adjust the “Scan Time” so that your way of playing can be detected more precisely.
While repeatedly hitting the pad at a constant force, gradually raise the Scan Time value from 0 msec, until the resulting volume stabilizes at the loudest level. At this setting, try both soft and loud strikes, and make sure that the volume changes appropriately.
* As the value is set higher, the time it takes for the sound to be played increases. Set this to the lowest value
possible.
Double triggering prevention When playing a kick trigger the beater can bounce back and hit the
head a second time immediately after the intended note—with acoustic drums sometimes the beater stays against the head—this causes a single hit to “double trigger” (two sounds instead of one). The Mask Time setting helps to prevent this. Once a pad has been hit, any additional trigger signals occurring within the specied “Mask Time” will be ignored.
Adjust the “Mask Time” value while playing the pad. When using a kick trigger, try to let the beater bounce back and hit the head very quickly, then raise the “Mask Time” value until there are no more sounds made by the beater rebound.
MEMO
If two or more sounds are being produced when you strike the head just once, then adjust Retrigger Cancel.
Detecting trigger signal attenuation Important if you are using acoustic drum triggers. Such triggers can
produce altered waveforms, which may also cause inadvertent sounding at Point A in the following gure (Retrigger).
This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform. Retrigger Cancel detects such distortion in and prevents retriggering from occurring.
While repeatedly striking the pad, raise the “Retrigger Cancel” value until
Retrigger Cancel 1–16
retriggering no longer occurs. Although setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to be omitted
when the drums played fast (roll etc.). Set this to the lowest value possible while still ensuring that there is no retriggering.
MEMO
You can also eliminate this problem of retriggering with the Mask Time setting. Mask Time does not detect trigger signals if they occur within the specied amount of time after the previous trigger signal was received. Retrigger Cancel detects the attenuation of the trigger signal level, and triggers the sound after internally determining which trigger signals were actually generated when the head was struck, while weeding out the other false trigger signals that need not trigger a sound.

MASTER OUT jacks is also unaected by the panel faders. Regardless of the Fader to Direct setting, the output from the PHONES jacks is always aected by
the panel faders. This means that the faders at hand can be used to adjust the balance of the sound monitored by
the performer, independently of the balance adjusted by the PA.
Species whether the pad equalizer (p. 14) and pad compressor (p. 14) eects are applied (ON) or are not applied (OFF) to the sound that is output from the DIRECT OUT jacks.
If this is “OFF,” the pad equalizer and pad compressor are bypassed for the output of the DIRECT OUT jacks.
If the OUTPUT ROUTING Master Out is “DIRECT,” and PadEq/Comp to Direct is “OFF,” the output from the MASTER OUT jacks also bypasses the pad equalizer and pad compressor.
Species whether the pad compressor (p. 14) is applied (ON) or is not applied (OFF) to the sound that is output from the PHONES jacks.
If this is “OFF,” the pad compressor does not aect the output from the PHONES jacks. For example, this lets you use the pad compressor to reduce the dynamic range for the drum
monitor or PA, but hear the full dynamics in the monitor headphones while you perform.
Selects whether the output of the MASTER OUT jacks is the same signal as the DIRECT OUT jacks (DIRECT) or not (NORMAL).
If this is “DIRECT,” the output of the MASTER OUT jacks is not aected by the master compressor and master EQ, allowing you to use the MASTER OUT jacks as DIRECT OUT jacks (the setting of the [MASTER] knob does apply).
This setting also applies to the USB audio output to your computer.
Cuts the frequency region below the specied frequency (low cut). This setting is common to all output jacks.
Species whether low cut is applied (ON) or is not applied (OFF) to the sound that is output from the DIRECT OUT jacks.

Using the Local Control setting
SETUP
If you’re using a DAW with the performance data from the pads and TD-50’s sound generator section, you should turn the Local Control “OFF.” Here’s why.
We need to connect these sections in the following order: the performance data from the pads a DAW0the TD-50’s sound generator section.
Since the performance data from the pads and TD-50’s sound generator section are connected internally, such a connection order would normally be impossible. However, if the Local Control is “OFF,” the performance data from the pads and TD-50’s sound generator section will be independent, allowing you to use a DAW as shown here in the illustration.

Specifying the HH Note# Border
The note number transmitted when you strike the hi-hat will change depending on the amount of pressure on the hi-hat pedal. At the factory default value (127), the closed hi-hat note number will be transmitted only if the hi-hat pad is played with the pedal completely depressed. If you want this note
number to be transmitted when the pedal is slightly raised, set this to a value such as “90.”
* In some cases, changing the hi-hat note number border setting might cause a song to play back dierently than when it was recorded.

NOTE
If you set the delay time as a note value, slowing down the tempo will not change the delay time beyond a certain length. There is an upper limit for the delay time so if it is set as a note value and you slow down the tempo until this upper limit is reached, the delay time cannot change any further. This upper limit is the maximum value that can be specied when setting the delay time as a numerical value.
