Each of the TD-4's kits can be edited with different instruments assigned to each pad as desired.
Here's how to assign instruments to the pads:
- Choose a kit to edit.
- Press MENU so it's lit.
- Use the SEL buttons to choose "9 OPTIONS."
- Press the OK button.
- Use the SEL buttons to choose "Head/Rim Link".
- Turn the +/- dial to select "OFF".
- Press OK.
- Press SEL up to select "1 Instrument."
- Press OK.
- Hit the pad, or portion of the pad -(head or rim)- that you'd like to assign a sound to.
Note: The TD-4's tom inputs do not produce dual-trigger results. - Turn the +/- dial to select the desired sound.
- Repeat Steps 10-11 for any remaining pads.
- Press MENU when you're finished.
The new assignments are saved automatically.
