IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply
Repairs and Data
301
452
•
Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being
used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter
(such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or
air conditioner), or that contains a motor. 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 all data contained in the unit’s memory
may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data
should always be 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.
302
•
Additional Precautions
The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of
consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
553
•
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.
307
•
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power
to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage
to speakers or other devices.
554
•
556
•
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
When connecting / 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.
Placement
351
•
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.
•
558aTo avoid disturbing your neighbors, 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 (especially when it is late at night).
•
352aThis device may interfere with radio and television reception.
Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
352b
•
Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices,
•
558cSince sound vibrations can be transmitted through floors and
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.
walls to a greater degree than expected, take care not to allow
such sound to become a nuisance to neighbors, especially at
night and when using headphones. Although the drum pads
and pedals are designed so there is a minimal amount of extra-
neous 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.
•
354aDo 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.
•
559aWhen you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
355b
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you
will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
•
When moved from one location to another where the temper-
ature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (conden-
sation) 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.
562
•
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.
985
•
Maintenance
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.
•
401aFor 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.
402
•
•
If there is a danger that you might accidentally strike the unit
during performance, adjust the locations at which Tom 1 (T1)
and Tom 2 (T2) are attached to the stand, to reduce the gap
between the pads.
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to
avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Pad Type
Explanation
For each Pad, you can select the type of pad you’re using (the pad type) so the TD-4 will ac-
curately receive the signal from the pad.
Pad Type:
KD-8, KD-85, KD-120, PD-8, PD-85, PD-105, PD-125, PDX-8, CY-5, CY-8, CY-14C, CY-12R/C,
CY-15R, VH-11, OFF
The “Pad Type” is a collection of settings for various pad-related parameters; it sets these parameters to the appropriate values for each
type of pad.
Simply select the pad type that’s appropriate for the pad you’ve connected. Each parameter will be set to the appropriate value, allowing
you perform optimally.
If the pad does not respond as expected even though you’ve selected the correct pad type, you can make fine adjustments to each pa-
rameter as appropriate for your pad.

If you’ve turned this OFF for a pad, and would like to change that pad’s setting to something other than OFF, you’ll need to
re-select the pad by turning the [-/+] dial in the MENU screen (p. 27).

Parameter/Value
Explanation
Specifies the detection time for the trigger signal. Since the rise time
of the trigger signal waveform may differ slightly depending 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 the “Scan Time” so
that your way of playing can be detected more precisely.
Scan Time
0.4–4.0 (ms)
fig.ScanTime.eps
While repeatedly hitting the pad at a constant force, gradually raise the Scan Time value from 0.4 msec,
until the resulting volume stabilizes at the loudest level. At this setting, try both soft and loud strikes, and
make sure that the volume changes appropriately.
Scan Time
Time
*
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. Important if you are us-
ing acoustic drum triggers. Such triggers can produce altered wave-
forms, which may also cause inadvertent sounding at Point A in the
figure (Re-trigger). This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of
the waveform. Retrig Cancel detects such distortion in and prevents
re-triggering from occurring.
Retrig Cancel
1–16
fig.Retrigger.eps
While repeatedly striking the pad, raise the “Retrig Cancel” value until re-triggering no longer occurs.
A
*
Although setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, 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 retriggering.
Time
You can also eliminate this problem of re-triggering with the Mask Time setting. Mask Time does not
detect trigger signals if they occur within the specified amount of time after the previous trigger
signal was received. Re-trigger 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.

Explanation
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 to “double 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 specified
“Mask Time” (0–64 msec) will be ignored.
Mask Time
0–64 ms
Adjust the “Mask Time” value while playing the pad.
fig.MaskTime.eps
Mask Time
When using a kick trigger, try to let the beater bounce back and hit the head very quickly, then
raise the “Mask Time” value 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.
Time
Sound not produced
If two or more sounds are being produced when you strike the head just once, then adjust
Retrig Cancel.
This setting cancels “crosstalk,” which means that when you play
one pad you hear a sound coming from another pad. This can hap-
pen 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.
Xtalk Cancel
0–80%
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
Raise the “Xtalk Cancel” for the pad being used for tom 1. 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.
When a PD-125/105/85, PDX-8, PD-9/8/7, CY series pad, VH-11, or RT-
10S is connected, you can adjust the relation between your playing

velocity (force) on the rim/edge and the resulting volume level.
Higher value allows the rim/edge to produce a loud volume even
when played softly. Lower value will keep the rim/edge producing a
low volume even when played forcefully.
When a PD-125/105/85, PDX-8, or RT-10S is connected, you can ad-
just the sensitivity of the rim response.
Rim Adjust
0–8.0
There are some cases that you have a rim sound unexpectedly when
you hit the head strongly. You can improve this situation with de-
creasing the value of “RimShot Adjust.” When you set the value too
small, it might be difficult to play the rim sound.
