Editing a Drum Kit
The TD-27 lets you shape your sounds in a wide variety of ways, from customizing the drum itself by changing the head type
or shell depth, to adjusting the reverberation. If you want to make changes intuitively, use the sound modify knobs. If you
want to make precise settings while viewing the values in the screen, start your editing from the [KIT EDIT] button.
* Since the TD-27 automatically saves the values that you change, there’s no need to perform a specic operation to save
your settings. Settings are also saved when you turn o the power.
MEMO
You can temporarily save the currently-edited drum kit, and compare it with the current settings or revert back to it
(Snapshot function). For details, refer to “Reference Manual” (PDF).
