Roland TD-10 - Manual (Page 111)

Detailed settings for the trig-
ger parameters (ADVNCD)
The following parameters (ADVANCED EDIT) are automat-
ically set to the most efficient values for each pad when you
select the Trigger Type (p. 108), and don’t require adjust-
ment, except if you experience any of the problems that are
discussed in the explanation of each parameter. Press
[SETUP]-[F1 (TRIG)]-[F3 (ADVNCD)] and the setting page
will appear.
● Scan Time
Since the rise time of the trigger signal waveform may differ
slightly depending on the characteristics of each pad or
drum trigger (drum pickup) (TSC-10: optional), you may
notice that identical hits (velocity) may produce sound at
different volumes. If this occurs, you can adjust the Scan
Time so that your velocity of playing can be detected more
precisely.
Procedure
1. Press [SETUP]-[F1 (TRIG)]-[F3 (ADVNCD)].
The “TRIGGER ADVANCED” page will appear.
2. Use [CURSOR] to move the cursor to “Scan Time.”
3. Hit the pad for which you wish to make settings.
The setting page for the pad you struck will appear.
4. Use [INC/DEC] or the VALUE dial to make the setting.
While repeatedly hitting the pad at a constant force, gradual-
ly raise the Scan Time value from 0.0 msec, until the result-
ing volume stabilizes at the loudest level. At this setting, try
both soft and loud strikes, and make sure that the volume
changes appropriately. If the Scan Time setting is excessively
high, there will be a longer delay until the note is heard, so
set this to as low a value as possible.
Parameters
Scan Time: 0–4.0ms (0.1ms steps)
* The “SCAN TIME” setting is automatically set to the most effi-
cient values for each pad when you select the “TRIGGER
TYPE” (p. 108). If you have lowered the “SCAN TIME”, the
head tension adjustment (p.110) does not work correctly.
● Retrigger Cancel (RetrigCancel)
fig.08-07
Sometimes in the case of a snare drum or other drum to
which an acoustic drum trigger is attached, sound will occur
at point “A” (as desired) but will also occur again at point
“B” (undesired) due to distortions in the waveform. This is
called “retriggering,” and occurs in particular at the decay-
ing edge of the waveform. Retrigger Cancel detects such dis-
tortion in and prevents retriggering from occurring.
Procedure
1. Press [SETUP]-[F1 (TRIG)]-[F3 (ADVNCD)].
The “TRIGGER ADVANCED” page will appear.
2. Use [CURSOR] to move the cursor to “RetrigCancel.”
3. Hit the pad (or acoustic drum if using triggers) for which
you wish to make settings and the setting page for the
pad you struck will appear.
4. Use [INC/DEC] or the VALUE dial to adjust the setting.
While repeatedly striking the drum, raise the RetrigCancel
value until retriggering no longer occurs. Raising this value
will strengthen retrigger canceling, but will also mean that
notes may be lost during fast playing (a drum roll for exam-
ple) Set this to as low a value as possible.
Parameters
RetrigCancel: 1–16
