Absolutely BRILLIANT Geoff! I am trying to get started on my TD-12 and without your help I would be lost. Deeply appreciated that you take the time to compose and share these instructional videos.
Thankyou Geoff. Just shipped mine over to Thailand and not really used it for two years.
Set it up and it was giving me rim shots all over the pads. I thought it was f....d. Then I found your video and it solved all my problems. Many thanks.
I'm a TD-9 user but this video has helped me heaps to understand the settings. Thank you very much.
Geoff, thank you very much for your clear and easy to digest explanation of the TD-12. I've been playing the factory settings for four years, that's right 4 years! Finally decided to venture in further and your instruction is a great kick start for me. Much appreciated.
nice one you wont look back!.. dont forget factory reset is easy!
This is the best explanation that I have seen for the Roland pad parameters. Thanks for taking the time putting this together!
thanks
Thanks for very informative tutorial.
Very cool video, thanks a lot !
Very helpful video. Thanks.
Great job, man!
Thanks for this pretty good explanation!
thanks
Great video, very helpful Thanks.
Q: I recently changed my snare mesh head (pd 105 with td 12 module) and now my xstick doesn't work at all. I tried adjusting the rim settings and xstick threshold, but still nothing. Any suggestions?
I bought my dream td30k kit 2 months ago am excited about it's musical capabilities! I've seen all of the Roland videos and plus some but have not been able to see anything on the "pattern sequencer" functions and capabilities! Also there are a number of really cool preset "kits" that have triggered "loops", "single shot and taps". I'm alittle confused as to which triggers work for what! Please advise!
cool video :) I bought a roland tdk12 and when I use it with ezdrummer the hit hat doesn't really work ... I set the Vh11 it's better than the V12 but I f you have some advice letme know !!!
Thanks for the video.
However, i cant figure out how to reconfigure cymbals.
What i want is simply to change ride to crash, and crash to ride. How is that done?
Help would be much appreciated.
Sehr gut!!!
how to use kits (like VExpression kits) with VDrumLib and TD-12? Tutorial for this please...
hello! I recently bought this battery model and there are some things that I have not been able to adjust, and looking to adjust them I changed others and I don't know how to put them back to the way they were, anyway The first thing I notice is that the snare and grenadier drums are different from the other two, and their sensitivity is different. They do not register the blows well if, for example, I want to do a roll and the other thing that happens is that the blow only registers them in the center, which does not happen with tom 1 and 2 How can I change these settings? This information is really worth gold and I would really appreciate it, thank you!
Hi, nice video. I'm confused about user kits and where they are stored. Or does the module only have 50 kits that can be modified? I thought there would be preset kits, and a growing collection of user kits.
Amazing video! I have a question on the bass drum: I’m using this module on my acoustic bass drum, one trigger only for the kick. Now, I’m having additional, unwanted, low volumes sounds and beats while I hit other drums. I’m not sure what are the main features that I need to adjust on my kick trigger. Do I just bring down sensitivity, and threshold?
How about the scan time and retrig…I think those unvanted beats come also from the vibration of the head after each kick, any advice would be much appreciated.
Geoff I have a TD20I’m hoping that most of these editing features are the same somehow I changed my snare trigger setting to a alternate mode alternating between two sounds when I hit the stair any idea how I can change that back thanks for your help
Hi Geoff! I'm thinking about buying a TD-12 kit or a TD-15. Witch one is the best? Another question: can I use VSTs with this module (TD-12) on a macbook with IOS 10.14?
I have a midi-usb cable from m-audio.
Thanks a lot!
Hey Jeff, I love your vids because you actually explain the tech. You do that on this video. You've also done it with calibrating the hi hat.
I have a TD-50 an TD-12. I know how to update the software on the TD-50 but I'm not clear if you can/how to update the software on the TD-12. Can I update the software on the TD-12?
thanks Gary, yes you can update the pre usb models like the td12. you need a piece of software available on the roland website, and a midi cable from your pc to the module. I am pretty sure instructions are on the website. I would like to do a td-50 how to in the near future.
Why my PD-12 make sound without I PLAY ??!! ( i buy it use 2 day's ago ) please help me......
Geoff, I bought a Strike Pro kit a year after they hit the market. I spent so much time trying to get the settings correct that I gave up on the module entirely! Trying to use their manuals & videos was useless (poor or no explanations) regarding triggers settings etc drove me to purchase & replace the Strike module w/ a used TD-12 module (I had a few Roland module's prior). NIGHT & DAY difference! Roland's manuals & your videos have made drumming fun again. I have only 1 question, I'm not sure how to achieve the correct cymbal trigger settings in the TD-12 using the Strike Pro's pads. No videos at all on CZcams. Would you know any generic settings that could get me close?? Thanks
Could you advise the parameters you are using for pd85 for toms?Thanks
sorry, I dont have a td12 kit set up anymore.
Great video. Im having grief with the hi hat controller triggering Tom 3 and no idea how to sort it.😑
Great video. I wish I'd watched this a year ago when I got my TD12.
However!!
My daughter has recently been 'adjusting' things. Now when I hit the ride I get the snare. If I change it to a ride and exit, and I hit the snare, I get a ride. I've reset to F5 defaults but it's still there. Any ideas?
There’s a factory reset in the menu that sets absolutely everything back to standard.
I don't have that position tab! I just got a second hand td12 and i have hot spots like crazy and can't fix them. Help!
My loud sound becomes a rim sound when i am definitely just hitting the head. For now I've just made the rim sound the same sound as head to stop random tone samples at least, but it's not ideal. I'll never get a cross stick at this rate either lol. What settings would you recommend for this old Snare to produce a click, and a rim shot only when i hit the rim?
greetings hello !! if you show step by step what changes in the given appendage, you can really help a lot of people, I can not interpret 0, 0000000000000101%, or use it properly, so I think it would make sense to go through what is worth noting! The Roland module has a voice probation problem, the one in general is looking for cause and effect. so what's changing, what's changing, what's the difference, etc., so are these videos, as if you're trying to play luck too
Can you somehow transfer midi sounds from a computer to this module?
No, you can't although you can have a MIDI cable (Roland UM one eg) and hook it up to an external sound card (Focusrite or some other) and have a VST drum program to do the triggering instead of the TD12.
Are you running firmware 1.11?
What trigger setting do you use for a kick drum that’s an 18” A to E conversion?
You set your own
@@johncole4882 I would imagine the biggest like kd14
@@maeu59 they're not even close to being similar. Anything Roland makes in it's factory is to a consistent standard. Anything we convert at home will be potentially wildly different. But it's definitely a starting place. I also did a full A to E conversion. A very fun project
@@johncole4882 so what trigger did you set for your kick drum?
@@maeu59 I honestly don't even know. I use the td12 and plug my kick into the kick input. So whatever is standard for that year. I knew so little about Roland going in that I didn't know what any of those pads even were or what they meant. I learned what all the metrics meant, then I plugged my pad in and one by one adjusted them (most I left alone) until I was satisfied. Every once in a while I'll make some adjustments as I learn more and learn what to listen for
I have a pdx 100 , configured as a 105 , and sanre sounds horrible , totally metallic and armónic , all sanares , restore from fabric and same
Damán bro! You speak so fast!😱 I have to repeat thousands time
Sorry!
