Look What You Can Do with the TD-50
Customize Sounds for More Expressive Potential
A rich variety of sounds, and a plenty of freedom to customize them
5 Drum kits appropriate for a wide range of musical genres are provided.
5 You can customize the drum itself by varying the shell depth and tuning, and adjust the ambience and effects to obtain a variety of sounds.
5 The "snapshot" function lets you temporarily save the drum kit that you're editing, and compare it with the current settings or revert to the
previous settings.
5 You can change the illumination color of the knobs and buttons for each drum kit.
More personalized sound design
The "user sample" function lets you import audio files from an SD card. By using this in conjunction with the layer function (SUB INSTRUMENT) (p. 17),
you can combine original sounds with the internal sounds for even more personalized sound design.
Enjoy Performing and Practicing
Perform along with songs
5 You can connect an audio player (smartphone) to the MIX IN jack and enjoy playing the drums along with your favorite songs.
5 You can play back audio files (WAV, MP3) from an SD card, and enjoy playing the drums along with your favorite songs. By using the speed control
or A-B repeat functions, you can even play along with difficult songs. The TD-50 also provides internal loop phrases that you can enjoy jamming
along with.
Record your performance
5 You can easily record and play back your own performances. In addition to creating a record of your performance, this can also be a useful way to
objectively evaluate your own playing.
5 A performance that you recorded on the TD-50 can be exported as an audio file or as SMF data.
Train your sense of rhythm
In addition to the click (metronome) function, there's a "quiet count" function that's ideal for improving your sense of tempo.

Connect to a computer
You can connect the TD-50 to your computer, and record multi-track audio or MIDI on your DAW.
Versatile choices of click output
In addition to sounding the internal click, you can also output an audio file from an SD card as the click track, allowing you to sound a click along with
the song. You can also choose to output the click only through headphones.
Audio routing settings appropriate for your situation
You can specify the output used for each pad's sound and effects.
This lets you specify the routing appropriately for your situation, whether it's recording or live performance.
Recall drum kits consecutively
The "set list" function lets you specify the order in which you want to recall drum kits, and then recall them instantly.
This is convenient when you want to switch drum kits in a specific order during a live performance.
