[PREVIEW]
• Has this been set to Pad Pattern? ([KIT] → [F3
( MENU)] → “PTN”)
→ Set “PATTERN” to “OFF.”
To immediately stop playback of a pattern, press
[PLAY/STOP]; the button light goes off.
Volume Balance Set in Mixer Not
Reproduced
• About the Group Fader and Mixer Settings
→ When setting volume levels, set all the [GROUP
FADERS] to the same level, then adjust the volume
balance. When carried out in this manner, the set
volume balance can be reproduced just by calling up
the kit. Use the [GROUP FADERS] when making
temporary adjustments in the volume levels.
No Sound When the Pad is Struck
Softly
• Did you strike a pad or press the pedal at any time from
when the TD-8’s power was turned on until the kit name
appeared in the display?
→
Turn the TD-8’s power off and then on again without
playing any pads or pedals during the TD-8’s warm up.
Precautions When Turning On the Power
When the TD-8 is turned on, it carries out a check of the pads.
If you strike a pad or press the pedal anytime during this
process, the pads cannot be checked properly, resulting in
incorrect functioning of the pads.
Rotating [MASTER] Does not Change
the volume
The [MASTER] knob adjusts the volume level from the
MASTER OUTPUT jacks, and does not affect the volume
of the output from the headphones or the DIRECT
OUTPUT jacks.
No Ambience Applied
Check the following points.
• Is Ambience turned off? ([KIT] → [F3 ( MENU)] →
“FX SW”)
→ Press [F1] to turn the Ambience effect on (p. 81)
• Has the Ambience level for individual instruments been
lowered? ([KIT] → [F2 (STUDIO)] → [F2 (AMBSND)])
→ Strike the pad to which Ambience is not being applied
and move the cursor to the slider for that pad. Press
[INC/+] or [DEC/-] or rotate the VALUE dial to raise
the value (p. 90).
• Has the kit’s overall Ambience level been lowered?
([KIT] → [F2 (STUDIO)] → “LEVEL”)
→ Press [INC/+] or [DEC/-] or rotate the VALUE dial to
raise the value (p. 89).
No Equalizer Applied
• Is the equalizer turned off? ([KIT] → [F3 ( MENU)] →
“FX SW”)
→ Press [F3] to turn the equalizer on (p. 81)
• Is the GAIN set to “0?” ([KIT] → [F2 (STUDIO)] → [F1
(EQ)])
→ Press [INC/+] or [DEC/-] or rotate the VALUE dial to
set “HIGH GAIN” and “LOW GAIN” to values other
than “0” (p. 91).
Sound in Headphones Distorted
• Sometimes, setting the headphone output too high using
certain tones can make it appear that the sound is
somewhat distorted.
→ Use the headphone knob to reduce the distortion.
Master Output, Direct Output Distorted
• Certain “SHELL DEPTH,” “HEAD TYPE,” and “EQ” can
make it appear that the sound is somewhat distorted.
→ Use the mixer’s LEVEL control to lower the volume of
the pads. ([MIXER] → “LEVEL”)
→ You can also suppress distortion by putting the PAN
setting near the center of the field. ([MIXER] →
“PAN”)
