GETTING STARTED
Power:
1. Connect the included power adapter to the POWER IN on DISCOVER DRUMS's rear
panel, then connect the power adapter to a power source.
or
1. Remove the battery compartment cover on the back panel.
2. Insert 6 C-size batteries into the compartment. Make sure they are inserted with the
positive (+) and negative (-) poles positioned correctly.
3. Close the cover until it clicks into place.
Precautions:
If the sound of the drums becomes distorted, the batteries may need to be replaced.
We recommend replacing worn batteries as soon as possible.
When using the included power adapter, DISCOVER DRUMS will use that as the power source rather than using the
power of any installed batteries.
Always be sure batteries are inserted with the positive (+) and negative (-) poles positioned correctly.
Use batteries of the same type. Do not use different types of batteries together at once.
When not in use for long periods of time, remove the batteries to prevent them from leaking. If they leak, wipe away the
liquid from inside the battery compartment.
Do not heat, disassemble, or dispose of batteries by throwing them into a fire.

USING DISCOVER DRUMS
DISCOVER DRUMS has 49 different Rhythms you can play:

or use the RHYTHM -/+ buttons to move through the Rhythms one at a time.
2. Press START. The Rhythm will start to play, and the lights below the drums will light up when each drum's sound occurs
in the Rhythm (a tool that can help you learn a Rhythm's drum pattern).
3. As the Rhythm is playing, you can use the following controls:
• Press VOLUME -/+ to adjust the volume.
• Press KIT -/+ to change the Kit (a set of drum sounds) without changing the Rhythm. There are 26 different Kits
you can choose from. (The Rhythm's original/default Kit will return once you select a different Rhythm.)
• Press TEMPO -/+ to change the speed of the Rhythm.
• Press the RHYTHM BUTTONS to change the Rhythm without stopping playback. Once the current measure is
done playing, there will be four "clicks" to count you in, then the new Rhythm will begin playing.
• Press LESSON to mute the drums' sounds from the Rhythm so you can play along. The lights below the drums
will light up to prompt you when to hit each drum, or you can also make up your own drum parts. (The drums will
sound even when you hit them even if the original drum part is still playing, allowing you to play your own patterns
over the original part.)
