CAUTION  
WARNING  
CAUTION  
Turn off the unit if an abnormality or malfunction  
occurs  
Do not connect or disconnect the AC adaptor with  
wet hands  
Place in a well ventilated location  
The unit and the AC adaptor should  
be located so their location or  
position does not interfere with  
their proper ventilation.  
Immediately turn the unit off,  
remove the AC adaptor from the  
outlet, and request servicing by  
your retailer, the nearest Roland  
Service Center, or an authorized  
Roland distributor, as listed on the  
“Informationpage when:  
Never handle the AC adaptor or  
its plugs with wet hands when  
plugging into, or unplugging from,  
an outlet or this unit.  
Use only the specified stand (s)  
Disconnect everything before moving the unit  
Before moving the unit, disconnect  
the AC adaptor and all cords  
This unit is designed to be used in  
combination with specific stands  
(MDS series) manufactured by  
Roland. If used in combination with  
other stands, you risk sustaining  
injuries as the result of this product  
dropping down or toppling over  
due to a lack of stability.  
• The AC adaptor, the power-  
supply cord, or the plug has been  
damaged; or  
coming from external devices.  
Unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet before  
cleaning  
Before cleaning the unit, turn it off  
and unplug the AC adaptor from  
the outlet (p. 10).  
• If smoke or unusual odor occurs; or  
• Objects have fallen into, or liquid  
has been spilled onto the unit; or  
• The unit has been exposed to rain  
(or otherwise has become wet); or  
• The unit does not appear to  
operate normally or exhibits a  
marked change in performance.  
Evaluate safety issues before using stands  
Even if you observe the cautions  
given in the owner’s manual,  
certain types of handling may allow  
this product to fall from the stand,  
or cause the stand to overturn.  
Please be mindful of any safety  
issues before using this product.  
If there is a possibility of lightning strike,  
disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet  
Whenever you suspect the  
possibility of lightning in your area,  
disconnect the AC adaptor from  
the outlet.  
Adults must provide supervision in places where  
children are present  
When using the unit in locations  
where children are present, be  
careful so no mishandling of the  
unit can take place. An adult should  
always be on hand to provide  
supervision and guidance.  
Grasp the plug when connecting or disconnecting  
the AC adaptor  
Always grasp only the plug on the  
AC adaptor cord when plugging  
into, or unplugging from, an outlet  
or this unit.  
Keep small items out of the reach of children

of the parts listed below, always  
keep them out of the reach of small  
children.  
Do not drop or subject to strong impact  
Protect the unit from strong impact.  
(Do not drop it!)  
• Included Parts  
Wing bolts (p. 9)  
• Removable Parts  
Cap of the special connection  
cable  
Periodically clean the AC adaptor’s plug  
At regular intervals, you should  
unplug the AC adaptor and clean  
it by using a dry cloth to wipe all  
dust and other accumulations away  
from its prongs. Also, disconnect  
the power plug from the power  
outlet whenever the unit is to  
remain unused for an extended  
period of time. Any accumulation of  
dust between the power plug and  
the power outlet can result in poor  
insulation and lead to fire.  
Do not share an outlet with an unreasonable  
number of other devices  
Do not force the unit’s power-  
supply cord to share an outlet with  
an unreasonable number of other  
devices. Be especially careful when  
using extension cords—the total  
power used by all devices you have  
connected to the extension cord’s  
outlet must never exceed the power  
rating (watts/amperes) for the  
extension cord. Excessive loads can  
cause the insulation on the cord to  
heat up and eventually melt through.  
Manage cables for safety  
Try to prevent cords and cables  
from becoming entangled. Also, all  
cords and cables should be placed  
so they are out of the reach of  
children.  
Do not use overseas  
Before using the unit in a foreign  
country, consult with your retailer,  
the nearest Roland Service Center,  
or an authorized Roland distributor,  
as listed on theInformationpage.  
Avoid climbing on top of the unit, or placing  
heavy objects on it  
Never climb on top of, nor place  
heavy objects on the unit.  
Do not use a CD-ROM in an audio CD player or  
DVD player  
DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a  
conventional audio CD player. The  
resulting sound may be of a level  
that could cause permanent hearing  
loss. Damage to speakers or other  
system components may result.

IMPORTANT NOTES  
USB flash drives are constructed using precision  
components; handle the USB flash drives carefully,  
paying particular note to the following.  
Power Supply  
Additional Precautions  
Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet  
that is being used by an electrical appliance that  
is controlled by an inverter or a motor (such as a  
refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or  
air conditioner). Depending on the way in which  
the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise  
may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce  
audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate  
electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise  
filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.  
Please be aware that the contents of memory can  
be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction,  
or the improper operation of the unit. To protect  
yourself against the risk of loosing important  
data, we recommend that you periodically save a  
backup copy of important data you have stored in  
the unit’s memory to USB flash drives.  
To prevent damage to the cards from static  
electricity, be sure to discharge any static  
electricity from your own body before handling  
the cards.  
Do not touch or allow metal to come into  
contact with the contact portion of the cards.  
Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore  
the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s  
memory or on USB flash drives once it has been  
lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability  
concerning such loss of data.  
Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong  
shock or vibration.  
The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after  
long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and  
is not a cause for concern.  
Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed  
vehicles, or other such locations.  
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the  
unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when  
using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can  
lead to malfunctions.  
Do not allow cards to become wet.  
To prevent malfunction and equipment failure,  
always make sure to turn off the power on all your  
equipment before you make any connections.  
Do not disassemble or modify the cards.  
Handling CDs / DVDs  
With the factory settings, this unit will  
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.  
Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside  
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty  
CD discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs  
clean using a commercially available CD cleaner.  
automatically be switched off 30 minutes after  
you stop playing or operating the unit. If you don’t  
want the unit to turn off automatically, change the  
“Auto Offsetting toOFFas described on p. 35.  
When disconnecting all cables, grasp the  
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way  
you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the  
cable’s internal elements.  
About Copyright  
Placement  
To avoid disturbing others nearby, try to keep the  
unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer  
to use headphones, so you do not need to be  
concerned about those around you.  
Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other  
equipment containing large power transformers)  
may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change  
the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away  
from the source of interference.  
It is forbidden by law to make an audio recording,  
video recording, copy or revision of a third party’s  
copyrighted work (musical work, video work,  
broadcast, live performance, or other work),  
whether in whole or in part, and distribute,  
sell, lease, perform, or broadcast it without the  
permission of the copyright owner.  
Since sound vibrations can be transmitted through  
floors and walls to a greater degree than expected,  
take care not to allow such sound to become a  
nuisance to others nearby. Although the drum  
pads and pedals are designed so there is a minimal  
amount of extraneous sound produced when  
they’re struck, rubber heads tend to produce  
louder sounds compared to mesh heads. You can  
effectively reduce much of the unwanted sound  
from the pads by switching to mesh heads.  
This device may interfere with radio and television  
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of  
such receivers.  
Do not use this product for purposes that could  
infringe on a copyright held by a third party. We  
assume no responsibility whatsoever with regard  
to any infringements of third-party copyrights  
arising through your use of this product.  
Noise may be produced if wireless communications  
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the  
vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when  
receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing.  
Should you experience such problems, you should  
relocate such wireless devices so they are at a  
greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.  
The copyright of content in this product (the  
sound waveform data, style data, accompaniment  
patterns, phrase data, audio loops and image data)  
is reserved by Roland Corporation and/or Atelier  
Vision Corporation.  
When you need to transport the unit, package  
it in the box (including padding) that it came  
in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use  
equivalent packaging materials.  
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place  
it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside  
an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to  
temperature extremes. Excessive heat can deform  
or discolor the unit.  
Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not  
use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting  
to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the  
sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to  
hear. For information on cable specifications, contact  
the manufacturer of the cable.  
Purchasers of this product are permitted to  
utilize said content for the creating, performing,  
recording and distributing original musical works.  
Purchasers of this product are NOT permitted to  
extract said content in original or modified form,  
for the purpose of distributing recorded medium  
of said content or making them available on a  
computer network.  
When moved from one location to another where  
the temperature and/or humidity is very different,  
water droplets (condensation) may form inside  
the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you  
attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore,  
before using the unit, you must allow it to stand  
for several hours, until the condensation has  
completely evaporated.  
The explanations in this manual include  
illustrations that depict what should typically be  
shown by the display.  
Note, however, that your unit may incorporate  
a newer, enhanced version of the system (e.g.,  
includes newer sounds), so what you actually see  
in the display may not always match what appears  
in the manual.  
Do not put anything that contains water on this  
unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides, perfumes,  
alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the unit.  
Swiftly wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit  
using a dry, soft cloth.  
MMP (Moore Microprocessor Portfolio) refers to a  
patent portfolio concerned with microprocessor  
architecture, which was developed by Technology  
Properties Limited (TPL). Roland has licensed this  
technology from the TPL Group.  
Before Using External Memories  
Carefully insert the USB flash drives all the way  
in—until it is firmly in place.  
Maintenance  
For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft,  
dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened  
with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth  
impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent.  
Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly  
with a soft, dry cloth.

repairs. Important data should always be backed  
up to USB flash drives, or written down on paper  
(when possible). During repairs, due care is taken  
to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain cases  
(such as when circuitry related to memory itself is  
out of order), we regret that it may not be possible  
to restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability  
concerning such loss of data.

Setting the Pad Sensitivity [F2] (BASIC)  
When you specify the pad type (p. 41), the following settings (basic trigger  
parameters) are automatically set to the values appropriate for each pad, meaning  
that you will normally not need to adjust them. If you wish to make detailed  
adjustments, you can edit the following parameters for each pad.

Description  
Refer to p. 41.  
You can adjust the sensitivity of the pads to accommodate your personal playing style.  
This allows you to have more dynamic control over the sound volume, based on how hard you play.  
Higher sensitivity allows the pad to produce a loud volume even when played softly.  
Lower sensitivity will keep the pad producing a low volume even when played forcefully.  
Sensitivity  
Threshold  
1–32  
0–31  
Threshold  
A
This setting allows a trigger signal to be received only when  
the pad is above a determined dynamic level (velocity). This  
can be used to prevent a pad from sounding because of  
vibrations from other pads.  
B
C
In the example at the right, B will sound but A and C will  
not sound.  
When set to a higher value, no sound is produced when the  
pad is struck lightly.  
Gradually raise theThresholdvalue while striking the pad.  
Check this and adjust accordingly. Repeat this process until you get the perfect setting for your playing style.  
This setting allows you to control the relation between playing velocity (striking force) and changes in volume. Adjust this  
curve until the response feels as natural as possible.

Advanced Settings for the Trigger Parameters [F3] (ADVNCD)  
When you specify the Pad Type (p. 41), the settings in this screen (advanced trigger parameters) will automatically be set to  
the values that are most suitable for that type of pad; this means that with the exception of crosstalk cancellation, you will  
normally not need to edit these settings.  
You should make fine adjustments to these parameters for each pad only if you experience the problems described in the  
explanation of each parameter.

Refer to p. 41.  
Specifies the detection time for the trigger signal.  
Since the rise time of the trigger signal waveform may differ slightly depend-  
ing on the characteristics of each pad or acoustic drum trigger (drum pickup),  
you may notice that identical hits (velocity) may produce sound at different  
volumes. If this occurs, you can adjust theScan Timeso that your way of  
playing can be detected more precisely.  
Scan Time  
Time  
Scan Time  
0–4.0 (ms)  
While repeatedly hitting the pad at a constant force, gradually raise the Scan  
Time value from0,until the resulting volume stabilizes at the loudest level.  
At this setting, try both soft and loud hits, and make sure that the volume  
changes appropriately.  
* As the value is set higher, the time it takes for the sound to be played increases. Set this to the lowest value  
possible.  
This setting prevents spurious re-triggering.  
A
Important if you are using acoustic drum triggers. Such triggers can  
produce altered waveforms, which may also cause inadvertent sounding  
at Point A in the figure (Re-trigger).  
Time  
This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform. Retrig  
Cancel detects such distortion in and prevents re-triggering from  
occurring.  
While repeatedly striking the pad, raise theRetrig Cancelvalue until  
re-triggering no longer occurs.  
Retrig Cancel  
1–16  
* Although setting this to a high value prevents re-triggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to be omitted  
when the drums played fast (roll etc.). Set this to the lowest value possible while still ensuring that there is  
no re-triggering.  
MEMO  
You can also eliminate this problem of re-triggering with the Mask Time setting (p. 44). Mask Time does not  
detect trigger signals if they occur within the specified amount of time after the previous trigger signal  
was received. Retrig Cancel detects the attenuation of the trigger signal level, and triggers the sound after  
internally determining which trigger signals were actually generated when the head was struck, while  
weeding out the other false trigger signals that need not trigger a sound.

Mask Time  
This setting prevents double triggering.  
When playing a kick trigger, the beater can bounce back and  
hit the head a second time immediately after the intended  
note—with acoustic drums sometimes the beater stays against  
the head—is causes a single hit todouble trigger(two sounds  
instead of one). The Mask Time setting helps to prevent this. Once  
a pad has been hit, any additional trigger signals occurring within  
the specifiedMask Time(0–64 msec) will be ignored.  
Time  
Sound not produced  
Mask Time  
0–64 (ms)  
Adjust theMask Timevalue while playing the pad.  
When using a kick trigger, try to let the beater bounce back and hit the head very quickly, then raise the  
“Mask Timevalue until there are no more sounds made by the beater rebound.  
* When set to a high value, it will be difficult to play very quickly. Set this to as low a value as you can.  
MEMO  
If two or more sounds are being produced when you hit the head just once, then adjust Retrig Cancel (p. 43).  
This setting cancelscrosstalk,which means that when you play one pad you hear a sound coming from  
another pad. This can happen when two pads are installed on the same stand.  
In some cases you can prevent crosstalk by increasing the distance between the two mounted pads.  
Crosstalk Example: If you hit the snare pad and the tom 1 also sounds  
Xtalk Cancel  
0–80  
While striking the Snare pad, gradually increase theXtalk Cancelvalue for the tom 1 pad until the tom 1  
pad no longer sounds when you hit the Snare pad. If you raise theXtalk Cancelhigher, the tom 1 pad will  
be less prone to receive crosstalk from other pads.  
* If the value is set too high, and two pads are played simultaneously, the one that is struck less forcefully  
may not sound. Be careful and set this parameter to the minimum value required to prevent crosstalk.
