What are Claves?

The standard clave pattern, which is the base of most Latin rhythms features a basic beat that is played over two measures in 2/2 time. There are four types of Cuban clave rhythms: 3-2 son clave, 2-3 son clave, 3-2 rumba clave, and 2-3 rumba clave. Clave is Spanish for pivotal or key point. Originally, any instrument used to beat out the critical notes fundamental to a piece of music was referred to as clave, and claves came to refer to the most basic rhythms played with these instruments. When selecting claves for the rhythm type, set the rhythm (p. 29) to 4 (4/4 time signature; 2/2 time is shown in the score).

About the Pads
Trigger Inputs and the Pads You Can Use
The TD-3 is compatible with all of Rolands previous pads, kick triggers, etc. Problems between pads and trigger inputs can occur, however. Be sure to verify with the chart on p. 45, so that all settings are correct.
What is a Trigger? When a pad is struck, waveforms resulting from the vibrations are transmitted to the TD-3 or other sound module. These are called trigger signals. Trigger input jacks on the rear panel receive these trigger signals and the trigger indicators (p. 9) on the top panel light up when the signals are received by the TD-3.

Trigger Input Functions

The following shows the head/rim or head-only trigger input possibilities.

About Polarity Switch

fig.P-003

POLARITY - (Roland)

If you are using a PD-7, PD-9, or KD-7, the pads polarity switch should be in the - (Roland) position. For more detailed information, refer to your PD-7, PD-9, or KD-7 owners manual.

fig.retrigger.e

A Time
This occurs in particular at the decaying edge of the waveform. Retrigger Cancel detects such distortion in and prevents retriggering from occurring. Although setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to be omitted when the drums played fast (roll etc.). Set this to the lowest value possible while still ensuring that there is no retriggering. You can also eliminate this problem of retriggering with the Mask Time setting. Mask Time does not detect trigger signals if they occur within the specified amount of time after the previous trigger signal was received. Retrigger Cancel detects the attenuation of the trigger signal level, and triggers the sound after internally determining which trigger signals were actually generated when the head was struck, while weeding out the other false trigger signals that need not trigger a sound. 1. Hold down [LEVEL/PAN] and press [TEMPO]. [EDIT] flashes. Press [EDIT] a few times until is displayed. appears in the display, then the retrigger cancel value is indicated. Hit the pad you wish to set. The trigger indicator for the struck pad lights. Press [+] or [-] to adjust the value.

Press [EDIT] to continue editing other settings. When youre finished, press [DRUM KIT]; the [EDIT] light goes off. Do not turn off the power without the [EDIT] light having gone out. Otherwise you will lose the changes you have just made.

TD-3_e.book 57

Eliminate Crosstalk Between Pads (Crosstalk Cancel)
When two pads are mounted on the same stand, hitting one pad may trigger the sound from another pad unintentionally (This is called crosstalk.) Eliminate this by adjusting Crosstalk Cancel on the pad that is sounding inadvertently. 1. Hold down [LEVEL/PAN] and press [TEMPO]. [EDIT] flashes. Press [EDIT] a few times until is displayed. appears in the display, then the crosstalk cancel value is indicated. Hit the pad you wish to set. The trigger indicator for the struck pad lights. If the hi-hat cymbal also sounds when hitting a snare pad, set the Crosstalk Cancel for the pad being used for the hi-hat. As this value is raised, the hi-hat cymbal pad will be less prone to receive crosstalk from other pads. Press [+] or [-] to adjust the value. Crosstalk Cancel: OFF, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80 Crosstalk Example: If you hit the snare pad and the hi-hat cymbal also sounds Raise the Xtalk Cancel (Crosstalk Cancel) for the pad being used for the hi-hat. The hi-hat cymbal pad will be less prone to receive crosstalk from other pads. If the value is set too high, and two pads are played simultaneously, the one that is struck less forcefully may not sound. Be careful and set this parameter to the minimum value required to prevent crosstalk. With a setting of OFF, crosstalk prevention will not work. Press [EDIT] to continue editing other settings. When youre finished, press [DRUM KIT]; the [EDIT] light goes off. Do not turn off the power without the [EDIT] light having gone out. Otherwise you will lose the changes you have just made. You can also make the settings using the procedure on p. 41.
