Brush performance is available in the following cases.

- Refer to the "Instrument List" in the "TD-27 Data List" (PDF) and select the instrument that marked with "*B" in the remarks column. - When you connect a mesh pad to the TRIGGER IN jack (SNARE), or connect a pad that supports digital connection to a DIGITAL IN port, and set assign to “SNARE.”
- If the Assign setting of a DIGITAL TRIGGER IN port is set to "SNARE," the pad connected to the SNR (snare) cable on the dedicated cable harness will not sound.
