Troubleshooting

Appendices

Cannot Make Cross Sticks/

Cross Sticks Not Sounding

Do you have a pad connected to a trigger
input that is capable of handling cross sticks?
(p. 34)

➝ When using the PD-80R or PD-120 to play cross sticks,

connect to Trigger Input 2 (SNARE).

Has the instrument that can be used for
playing the cross sticks been selected?
(KIT/INST; p. 60, Drum Instrument List; p. 120)

➝ Use the instrument with the “XS.”

Are you playing the cross stick correctly?
(p. 37)

➝ For cross stick, make sure your hand or stick does not

touch or strike the head.

No Sound When the Pad is Struck

Softly

Did you strike a pad or press the pedal at any
time from when the TD-6’s power was turned
on until the kit name appeared in the display?

➝ Using the procedure of p. 24, turn the power on once again

without playing any pads or pedals during the TD-6’s

warm up.

Precautions When Turning On the Power

When the TD-6 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.
