What Are “Drum Kits” and “Instruments”?
On the TD-27, a set of drums is called a “drum kit.” The sounds that play when you

Pads that are connected to a TRIGGER INPUT jack
Each time you press the [F3] (XSTICK) button, you’ll switch
between sounding and not sounding the cross-stick sound
(p. 10) from the snare pad.
When playing using a pad that supports digital
connection and cross-stick technique (such as the
PD-140DS)
If a trigger input is assigned to snare (p. 7), cross-stick
technique is always possible.
In this case, the XSTICK icon is not shown in the screen.
