Roland TD-9 Drums User Manual

Basic concepts and operations of the TD-9
This section explains operations that are common to all of the
TD-9’s functionality.
The TD-9 has no “Save” function to save your settings. Any
changes you make will be saved when you turn off the power.
* Be sure to turn off the power by pressing the POWER
button (p. 18).
In this manual, references to the panel buttons, knobs and dial
are enclosed in square brackets [ ]; e.g., [SETUP].
The cursor is the highlighted text in the screen that indicates
what you can edit.
If there is more than one editable item in a screen, you can use
the [CURSOR] buttons to move the cursor to the item you want
to edit.
The [F1]–[F3] buttons are called “function buttons.” The bottom
line of the display indicates the name of the functions performed
by [F1]–[F3].
For example if an explanation in this manual refers to [KIT]-[F2]
(FUNC), this means that you should press [KIT] and then [F2] (in
this case, there will be an indication of “FUNC” above the [F2]
button).
The [+] and [-] buttons (referred to as [+/-] in this manual) and
VALUE dial (referred to as [VALUE]) are both used to edit
settings.
When this manual tells you to “use [+/-],” you can also use
[VALUE] to get the same result. Each method has the following
characteristics.
[+/-]
The value of the setting will increase each time you press
[+], and decrease each time you press [-]. This is
convenient when you want to make fine adjustments.
When making an on/off setting, press [+] to turn it on or
press [-] to turn it off.
Shortcut: The value will increase rapidly if you hold down
[+] and press [-], or decrease rapidly if you hold down [-]
and press [+].
The value will change in larger steps if you press [+/-]
while holding down [SHIFT].
[VALUE] dial
This dial lets you make large changes in a value easily.
Convenient for working with parameters that have broad value
range.
If you turn the [VALUE] dial while holding down [SHIFT],
the value will change more rapidly.
