Problems with sound

No sound

Is the TD-1KV/TD-1K correctly connected to the external devices?

Check the connections.

Could the cable be connected to an output jack (instead of the input) of 

the connected amplified speaker?

Are the cables correctly connected to the unit’s OUTPUT/PHONES jack?

Could an audio cable be broken?

Try using a different cable.

Check whether you hear sound through headphones.

If you hear sound in the headphones, there is a problem with the 

connection cables or with the connected amplified speaker.

Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor?

Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.

Could the TD-1KV/TD-1K volume be lowered?

Adjust the volume to an appropriate level.

Could the volume of the connected amplified speaker be lowered?

Could the volume be lowered on the device connected to the MIX IN jack?

Is the connection cable correctly connected to the TRIGGER INPUT 

connector?

Check the connections.

A specific pad does not sound

Are the cables correctly connected to each pad and pedal?

Could the pad’s “Sensitivity” be lowered?

Adjust the pad’s “Sensitivity.”

Is the pad’s “Type” set correctly?

Set the pad’s “Type.”

No sound when you press the 

kick pedal

Is the cable labeled KIK connected to the kick pedal?

Check the connections.

No sound when you press the 

hi-hat pedal

Is the cable labeled HHC connected to the hi-hat pedal?

The sound of another pad is 
also

 

heard when you strike 

the pad. 

If multiple pads are attached to the same stand, the vibration of a strike 

can be transmitted to another pad, causing it to sound inadvertently.

Reattach the pad at a different location.

Two or more notes are sounded 

when you strike once

Is the pad fastened to the stand?

Fasten the pad firmly to the stand.

Sounds do not play reliably

 TD-1KV

Is the pad’s mesh head tensioned evenly?

Adjust the mesh head tension. Slightly higher tension is good for 

proper triggering.

Problems with USB

Can’t connect with a computer

Is the USB cable connected correctly?

Make sure that the USB cable is correctly connected.

Problems with MIDI

No sound from external MIDI 

device

Is the MIDI channel set correctly?

Set the MIDI channel of external MIDI device to 10.

Has the note number been set properly?

Check the pad’s “Note#.”
