Setting Trigger Parameters in a Percussion Sound Module
retriggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to
be omitted when the drums played fast (roll
etc.).
* Muting the drum can work to suppress
disruptions in the trigger waveform.
Crosstalk is a problem in which the vibrations
and sounds from a drum when it is struck ends
up triggering other drums. Crosstalk Cancel is a
setting that prevents crosstalk that occurs among
drum triggers connected to the same percussion
sound module.
When a sound being triggered by the snare
drum, for example, is heard when you play
another drum, kick or tom-tom, then you should
raise this value for the snare drum triggered
sound. If this problem occurs, Crosstalk Cancel
value should be adjusted first.
In this case, for example, if you hit the tom and
the snare drum triggers the sound assigned to it,
you can do the following:
1.
Set the tom and snare to the same Crosstalk
Cancel Group. (Only TD-20 and TD-12)
2.
Set the Mount Type for the tom and snare to
“PAD.” (Only TD-20 and TD-12)
3.
Then adjust the Crosstalk Cancel value for
the snare, by hitting the tom until the snare
trigger no longer triggers the sound.
***** Hint or Tips ICON ******
* If the triggers are being affected by sounds from
other drums without drum triggers or from
speakers, adjust the “Threshold” (p. 9) value.
* Only with attaching the drum trigger to the
drum, you can use the “Crosstalk Cancel” in the
percussion sound module to prevent you from
having crosstalk.

Matching the Drum Trigger to the Sound
Module
Trigger types are groupings of various
trigger parameters adjusted to match
specific pads and triggers.
Roland percussion sound modules feature
pre-programmed trigger settings for this
purpose. Adjusting the trigger parameters
based on these settings will provide the best
performance from the RT-10 series.
Stable Triggering Dynamics and Speed
Accuracy
A drum trigger’s response is affected by
many variables. These include the type of
drum, the head and tuning, how it is
muffled (or muted) and your playing style.
Correct trigger parameter settings will
guarantee good dynamic response and
speed accuracy.
Special Triggering Examples
Triggering from acoustic drums is not only
used in a “normal” full, dynamic sense, but
sometimes triggers are used to trigger loops
in samplers, or sounds or special effects
where natural dynamics are not needed.
• When triggering a loop or special
effects, it is best to set the “threshold
level” to a high value.
This way, low velocity hits on the
drum will not trigger that sound.
• When triggering a sound that you
always want to be at the same level, no
matter how hard you play, set the
“Trigger Curve” to “LOUD”
