Troubleshooting
If the BT-1 does not operate as you expect, please check the following points first.
If you are still unable to resolve the problem, contact your retailer, the nearest Roland Service
Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
Problem Check / Action
No sound
Check the connections. (p. 7)
Firmly insert the plug of the connection cable all the way into the jack.
Use a stereo cable. (p. 7)
Adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
Check the instrument that’s assigned to the head (or rim) trigger.
Check the drum sound module’s trigger indicator to confirm that the drum
sound module is receiving the trigger signals.
On some drum sound modules, the instrument might not sound if you’ve
assigned a control function to the pad.
For details, refer to the owner’s manual of your drum sound module.
The sound of another pad is also
heard when you strike the BT-1
When the BT-1 is attached to the hoop of a V-Drums pad, striking the BT-1
will cause that pad to sound. If this presents a problem, it can be mounted
on an optional stand.
Adjust the crosstalk cancel setting of your drum sound module.
Reattach the BT-1 at a different location.
Two or more notes are sounded
when you strike once
Fasten the BT-1 firmly to the hoop or stand.
Fasten the attachment firmly.
Increase the retrigger cancel setting on your drum sound module. If this has
no effect, increase the mask time setting.
The rim sound is heard instead of
the head sound
When the BT-1 is connected to some drum sound modules, the head sound
will not be triggered. The BT-1 will operate only as a rim trigger. This is not a
malfunction.
The BT-1 is triggered when you
strike a different pad or drum
Use a stereo cable. (p. 7)
If you’re using a drum sound module with which the BT-1 operates as a rim
trigger, do not assign an instrument or control function to the head of the
trigger input the BT-1 is connected to. (p. 8)
