This unit, either alone or in combination with an  
amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be  
capable of producing sound levels that could  
cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for  
a long period of time at a high volume level, or at  
a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience  
any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should  
immediately stop using the unit, and consult an  
audiologist.

Pla ce m e n t  
351  
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the units  
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).  
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 inter-  
ference.  
559a  
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.

receivers.  
352b  
Noise may be produced if wireless communications  
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.  
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of  
this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initi-  
ating 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.  
This is a heavy device. To prevent injury caused by the  
unit overturning or being dropped, use two or more  
people to carry the unit whenever possible.  
354b  
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.  
Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used  
while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a  
piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the  
same area of the unit for extended periods of time.  
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.  
355  
To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the unit in a wet  
area, such as an area exposed to rain or other moisture.  
356  
Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain  
on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can  
discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.  
357  
Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower  
vases) on the 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.  
359  
Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.  
Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the  
exterior finish.

In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT  
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING THE UNIT  
the following:  
Po w e r Su p p ly  
301  
Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any  
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric  
motor or variable lighting system).  
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.

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.  
402  
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any  
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/ or  
deformation.  
For routine care of the carpeted surfaces, use a brush with  
stiff bristles.

FFP Te ch n o lo g y  
Ste re o Lin k  
This amplifier relies on Rolands own innovative FFP  
technology. By digitally processing the input signal, it  
provides response that is geared perfectly toward  
amplification of the V-drums sound. At the same time, it  
achieves sonic pressure that surpasses the size and wattage  
of the cabinet.  
Stereo playback is made simple with a single audio cable  
(phone type) connection.  
Channel volume can be controlled totally on the main unit.  
A Ca b in e t De sig n e d fo r Mo n ito r  
Pe rfo rm a n ce  
The tweeter is located near the top of the cabinet, enhancing  
Bi-a m p Sy ste m  
the performance of the performers monitor speaker.  
The woofer and tweeter are each driven by a dedicated amp,  
so you get high-power, high-quality sound.  
Bro a d Ex p a n d a b ility  
In addition to the channel inputs, the input/ output  
connectors also include headphones output, and two types of  
Line Out jacks (XLR and 1/ 4" phone jacks), thus providing  
support for a wide variety of applications.  
De d ica te d in p u t ch a n n e l fo r V-Dru m s (CH1 )  
The amp features an input channel tailored for V-Drums  
sound.  
V-Drums In  
With this input jack, all you need is just one stereo cable to  
make the connection from the headphone output jack on a V-  
Drums sound module.  
What’s FFP (Feed Forward Processing) Technology?  
FFP is system control technology that optimizes the  
performance of the amp, speakers, and cabinet characteristics  
according to the signals being input, based on the results of  
analyses of the operation and behavior of each section of  
existing amp systems.  
V-Drums Shape  
The amp features a BOTTOM switch for truly awesome bass,  
and a PUNCH switch for enhancing the contour of the  
midrange and high-end. Together, they allow you to increase  
the impact of the V-Drums sound.  
Bu ilt-in 3 -Ch a n n e l Mix e r Fe a tu re  
Thanks to its Mixer feature, the TDA-700 makes it easy to  
incorporate a variety of other devices, such as percussion  
pads and rhythm machines, in addition to V-Drums.  
And, since CH 2 and CH 3 are equipped with an OUTPUT  
SEL switch, which lets you select headphones, speakers, or  
line out as the output destination, the output for a device  
youve input can be changed at will.  
3 -Ba n d Eq u a lize r  
The TDA-700 is equipped with a three-band equalizer.  
Moreover, when combined with the Shape switch, even more  
tonal variations are possible.

Ste re o Lin k  
Stereo playback is enabled simply by connecting two TDA-700 units with a single audio cable (phone type).  
This function is called Stereo Link.As the channel control section is designed to accept stereo signals, connection of sound  
sources is needed only at the main unit, thus enabling channel volumes to be centrally controlled on the main unit.  
The right-channel signals are output from the speakers in the main unit, while the left-channel signals are output from the  
speakers in the sub unit (the other TDA-700).
