Overview
Features
The TD-12 follows in the foot steps of the TD-20, taking
advantage of Roland’s powerful COSM technology. Velocity,
position, and interval of each hit are detected precisely,
providing real and natural dynamics. The new, dual trigger
PD-105/85 pads give you superior feel, response and control
of the sound. You can play both shallow and deep rim shots.
12 trigger inputs let you use lots of pads, leaving room for
advanced Pad Switch applications. (p. 76)
* COSM (Composite Object Sound Modeling) is a Roland
technology combining multiple sound modeling processes to
create new sounds.
* Positional detection is possible on snare drums (head/rim),
toms (rim) and ride cymbals (bow).
The onboard sound library was created for the TD-12, and
designed to work with enhanced V-Editing. Besides being able
to change heads, muffling types, shell depth, etc. you can also
place sizzles on any cymbal, and add snare buzz to the toms
or kick.
The interface is very easy to navigate. With the many buttons
on the top panel, you won’t lose time searching for functions.
Clear graphics, icons and menus guide you through the
simple and complex operations. No matter where you are
inside the TD-12, pushing the KIT button always brings you
back to the main kit page. Even still, please read this manual.
Advances in trigger technology combined with new pad
designs and V-Hi-Hat pads, provide natural response and
feel. Even playing with brushes (plastic only) has improved
(p. 32).
Flexibility of audio routing is important in the professional
environment. The TD-12 lets you use all of the outputs in a
very efficient way. Each sound of the drum kit can be assigned
to one of the 4 individual outs. (Master out can be used as an
individual pair. The Effects, Ambience, Backing parts, Click
and even audio coming in the MIX input, can be assigned to
individual outputs. Perfect for any situation.
By including the VH-11 V-Hi-Hat, which features a single-
piece construction, you can perform with a natural feel. Using
the VH-12 two-piece hi-hat, you can use pressure on the pedal
when the hi-hat is closed to create further changes in the
nuance and/or pitch of the sound (p. 23).
The MDS-12 stand allows you to pass the cables through the
pipes, making easy to transport and set up again. It
streamlines the look as well.
