Listening to Patterns
Here’s how to listen to a performance
example (pattern) using the drum kit.
* Before playing back a pattern, lower
the volume of the HD-3. The volume
of these patterns may be louder than
when you play the kit normally, and you
do not want to risk damage to your ears
or connected equipment.
1. Press and hold one of the Kit Buttons
([1]–[10]) for a few seconds.
A pattern using this current kit will play.
If you press the [VARIATION] button, the
pattern for that variation kit will play.
MEMO
• Each pattern will play at it’s default
tempo (set at the factory). If you want
to change the tempo, play back the
pattern and use the [
][ ] buttons to
adjust the tempo.
• You can NOT play the pads when a
pattern is playing.
• No data for the music that is played will
be output from MIDI OUT jack.
2. To stop pattern playback, press any
kit button ([1]–[10]).
Playing Along With the
Metronome
Here’s how you can play the kit while
listening to the metronome.
This is the best way to practice and learn to
play at a steady tempo.
1. Press [ ] button.
[ ] button lights up and the
metronome starts.
