Getting Ready
Mounting the TD-27 on the Stand
Use the included sound module mounting plate to attach the TD-27 to a drum stand
(e.g., MDS Series; sold separately). Use the included wing bolts to attach the plate as
shown in the illustration.
* Use only the included wing bolts. Using any other bolts will cause malfunctions.
* When turning the unit over, be careful so as to protect the buttons and knobs from
damage. Also, handle the unit carefully; do not drop it.
MEMO
The All Purpose Clamp (APC-10; sold separately) can be attached in case you want to mount the TD-27 on a cymbal stand
or other such stand.
Turning the Power On/O
* Before turning the unit on/o, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear
some sound when switching the unit on/o. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
Turning the Power On
1. Connect headphones (sold separately) or
amplied speakers (sold separately) to the
TD-27.
* If amplied speakers are connected, minimize the volume
of the amplied speakers.
2. On the TD-27’s rear panel, turn the [POWER]
switch ON.
When you turn the TD-27 on, the following screen
appears.
In this screen you can make settings to specify
whether the power will automatically turn o after a
predetermined amount of time (AUTO OFF function).
Button Explanation
[F1] (OFF)
The power does not turn o
automatically.
[F5] (4 HOURS)
When four hours have passed without
any pad being struck or any operation
being performed, the unit will turn o
automatically.
* If the AUTO OFF function is set to “OFF,” this screen won’t
appear.
* The power to this unit will be turned o automatically
after a predetermined amount of time has passed since it
was last used for playing music, or its buttons or controls
were operated (AUTO OFF function).
If you do not want the power to be turned o
automatically, disengage the AUTO OFF function (p. 61).
To restore power, turn the power on again.
3. If amplied speakers are connected, turn on
the power of the amplied speakers.
4. Use the [PHONES] knob to adjust the volume
of the headphones, and use the [MASTER]
knob to adjust the volume of the amplied
speakers.
Turning the Power O
NOTE
Settings that you edit on the TD-27 are saved when you
turn o the unit. Be sure to turn o the unit by turning
the [POWER] switch.
1. If amplied speakers are connected to the
TD-27, minimize the volume of amplied
speakers and turn o their power.
2. Turn the TD-27’s [POWER] switch OFF.
The screen will indicate “Please wait. Now saving...,” and
the unit will turn o when the settings have been saved.
