Congratulations!
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha DD-50. The DD-50 has been developed to
act and play like a drum set but with greater ease. Before you use the instrument, we recommend you to read through this manual.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
Taking Care of Your DD-50
Your DD-50 will give you years of playing pleasure if you follow the simple rules given below:
■ Location
Do not expose the instrument to the following
conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or
more serious damage.
● Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).
● High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source,
outside, or in a car during the daytime).
● Excessive humidity .
● Excessive dust.
● Strong vibration.
■ Power Supply
● T urn the power switch OFF when the instru-
ment is not in use.
● An AC adaptor, if used (the DD-50 runs from
either batteries or an optional AC adaptor),
should be unplugged from the AC outlet if
the instrument is not to be used for an extended period of time.
● Unplug the AC adaptor during electric
storms.
● Avoid plugging the AC adaptor into the same
AC outlet as appliances with high power
consumption, such as electric heaters or
ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug adaptors
since these can result in reduced sound
quality, operation errors, and possibly damage.
■ Turn Power OFF When Making
Connections
● To avoid damage to the instrument and other
devices to which it is connected, turn the
power switches of all related devices OFF
prior to connecting or disconnecting cables.
■ Handling and Transport
● Never apply excessive force to the controls,
connectors or other parts of the instrument.
● Always unplug cables by gripping the plug
firmly, not by pulling on the cable.
● Disconnect all cables before moving the
instrument.
● Physical shocks caused by dropping, bump-
ing, or placing heavy objects on the instrument can result in scratches and more serious
damage.
■ Cleaning
● Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft
cloth.
● A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove
stubborn grime and dirt.
● Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.
● Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the
instrument (vinyl can stick to and discolor the
surface).
■ Electrical Interference
● This instrument contains digital circuitry and
may cause interference if placed too close to
radio or television receivers. If this occurs,
move the instrument further away from the
affected equipment.
■ Data Backup
● Custom data and some settings (see page 21)
will be retained in memory even if the power
switch is turned OFF as long as an AC power
adaptor is connected or batteries are installed.
■ Service and Modification
● The DD-50 contains no user serviceable parts.
Opening it or tampering with it in anyway can
lead to irreparable damage and possibly
electric shock. Refer all servicing to qualified
YAMAHA personnel.
YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.

Your DD-50 will run either from batteries or an optional power adaptor. Follow the instructions below
according to the power source you intend to use.
Using an AC-Adaptor (sold separately)
Connect the optional power adaptor (Yamaha
PA-3 or PA-3B) to the DC IN 10-12V jack located
on the unit’s left side panel, and plug the AC power
adaptor into an AC power outlet.
DC IN 10 - 12V
• Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the
PA-3 or PA-3B. Use of an incompatible adaptor may
result in the instrument becoming hot or, irreparable
damage to the DD-50. It may also result in fire. If the
instrument is damaged due to use of an incompatible
adaptor, YAMAHA is not responsible for the damage.

An optional set of stereo headphones (such as
the Yamaha HPE-150 or HPE-3) can be connected
to the PHONES/AUX OUT jack located on the
side panel. When a pair of headphones is connected to the jack, the DD-50’s internal speakers
will switch off automatically, perfect for private
practice or late night playing. If you want to use an
external sound system, the headphone jack can
also be used to connect the DD-50 to a stereo
system or mixing console. (Use a standard plug n
pin plug adaptor to connect the DD-50 to a stereo
system.)
* Turn the power OFF on all equipment before
making any connections.

• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC
adaptor if an optional AC adaptor is connected while
batteries are installed in the instrument.
• It is recommended that you replace worn batteries as
soon as possible. When battery voltage drops, the
DD-50’s display will dim and/or the sound will become
distorted. When this occurs, replace the batteries with
a complete set of six new batteries of the same type.
• NEVER mix old and new batteries, different types of
batteries (alkaline, magnesium, etc.), batteries by
different makers, or batteries from the same maker
but of different types.
Misuse may cause the instrument to become hot,
result in fire, or battery leakage.
• Also, to prevent damage due to battery leakage,
remove all of the batteries from the instrument when it
is not to be used for an extended period of time.
Batteries left in an unused instrument will also loose
their power over time.

Loudness of the sound may vary according to which part of the pad is struck.
Pad Names
A hi-hat sound is assigned to the Small Pad 3
(Drum Kit 00). Striking the Small Pad 3while
pressing on Pedal 2 produces a closed hi-hat
sound. Striking the pad without pressing the pedal
produces an open hi-hat sound.
