Assembling the Hi-Hat (VH-10)
Assembly procedure
Reference
For details on the hi-hat, refer to “VH-10 Owner’s Manual.”
1.
Remove the clutch included with the hi-
hat stand (commercially available) from
the cymbal rod.
* The clutch included with the hi-hat stand will not
be used.
* It is not necessary to remove the felt component
(or rubber portion) on the hi-hat stand used for
supporting the bottom cymbal.
2.
Confirm that the cymbal rod is firmly
secured.
For instructions on tightening the cymbal
rod, refer to the owner’s manual for your
cymbal stand.
* Looseness or play in the cymbal rod can make the
top hi-hat unstable, causing it to shake or turn, and
prevent proper functioning.
3.
With the sponge surface of the anti-
vibration plate facing upward, pass it
over the cymbal rod.
This will rest on top of the felt component (or
rubber portion) of the hi-hat stand's cymbal
receiver.
4.
Place the motion sensor unit with the
cymbal rod passing through the hole of
the motion sensor unit.
* Position the CONTROL OUT jack on the farther side,
as viewed from the player.
5.
Pass the hi-hat over the cymbal rod.
Positioning the “Roland” logo on the farther
side, as viewed from the player will provide
the best sensitivity.
6.
With the hi-hat completely separated
from the motion sensor unit, power-on
the TD-27.

Assembly procedure
Assemble the drum stand (MDS-Standard 2)
Assemble the drum stand using the procedure described in “MDS-Standard 2 Owner’s Manual.”
* This drum set illustration is for a right-handed player. If you want to set up for a left-handed player, assemble it as described in “Assembly
for a left-handed player” in “MDS-Standard 2 Owner’s Manual.”
* For reasons of safety, do not spread the drum stand
wider than 1.2 meters (47 inches). Doing so can cause
the stand to fall over.

Attaching Various Parts to the
Drum Stand
Installing the kick (KD-10)
NOTE
Adjusting the head tension affects only the head response,
and does not change the pitch of the sound as it would on an
acoustic drum.
Pitch adjustments are made by editing the sound in your drum
sound module. For details, refer to the “TD-27 Quick Start.”
Attach the crash cymbal (CY-12C / CY-13R) and ride cymbal (CY-18DR)
1.
Position the cymbal so that the convex portion
of the cymbal mount is aligned with the concave
portion of the bottom of the cymbal.
2.
Tighten the cymbal nut to obtain an appropriate
amount of sway.
* Use the cymbal nut and felt washer that are included with the
drum stand.
Insert the plug of the connection cable
into the CY-18DR’s DIGITAL TRIGGER OUT
connector.

left-handed player, refer to “Assembly for a Left-Handed Player” in the next page.
* For details on each part, refer to the owner’s manual of each part.
If you’re using this unit on a V-Drums mat, on a Noise Eater (NE-10), or on
carpet, extending the anchor bolts will secure the unit in place, making it
easier for you to perform.
* When used on flooring, the anchor bolts may damage the floor.
* The tips of the anchor bolts are sharp. Handle with care.
Mounting the snare (PD-140DS) on a snare stand
The PD-140DS can only be used with a commercially available snare stand.
* Make sure that the snare stand you are using is able to support a 14-inch shell.
Insert the plug of the connection cable into the PD-140DS’s DIGITAL TRIGGER
OUT connector.
