Roland TD-10 Drums User Manual


 
By changing the function of controllers or the way in which they are used, you can perform a variety
of convenient operations. This opens up some very interesting performance possibilities.
Using pads to play patterns (Pad Pattern)
You can make settings so that striking a pad will playback a previously selected pattern. This func-
tion provides a very convenient way to use patterns during a live performance.
* If different patterns have been assigned to two or more pads, striking another pad while a pattern is playing
back will cause pattern playback to switch to the newly selected pattern. If you have switched to a pattern
whose instrument settings are different, the sound may be interrupted for an instant.
Procedure
1. Press [INST]-[F4 (CTRL >)]-[F3 (PATTERN )].
The “INST CTRL” page will appear.
2. Strike the pad that you wish to edit.
The setting page for the pad you struck will appear.
3. Use [INC/DEC] or the VALUE dial to select the pattern number.
With a setting of “OFF,” the Pad Pattern function will be off.
* The symbol on the right side of the pattern name indicates how the pattern will be played back. For details
on this setting, refer to p. 98.
4. The pattern will playback when you hit the pad.
* If you do not want to hear the instrument assigned to that pad, press [CONTROL ROOM]-[F1 (MIXER)]-
[F1 (VOLUME)] and set the volume to “0.”
* Pad patterns cannot be used during sequencer recording.
