Mounting the TD-50 on the stand
You can attach the TD-50 to a drum stand by using the sound module mounting plate
included with the drum stand (sold separately: MDS series).
Using the screws on the bottom of the TD-50, attach it as shown in the illustration.
* Do not use any screws other than the screws from the bottom of the TD-50. Doing so will
cause malfunctions.
* When turning the unit over, be careful so as to protect the buttons and knobs from
damage. Also, handle the unit carefully; do not drop it.
MEMO
The All Purpose Clamp (APC-33; sold separately) can be attached to a pipe of 10.5–28.6
mm radius in case you want to mount the TD-50 on a cymbal stand or other such stand.

Explanation
Use a USB cable to connect the TD-50 to your computer (p. 16). This allows you to use DAW software to record the TD-50's
performance as audio or as MIDI.
Insert a commercially available SD card (SDHC cards (up to 32 GB) are supported).
You can store songs or TD-50 data on the SD card.
You can also use a card to load user samples or to export a recorded song.
Before using an SD card for the first time, you must format it on the TD-50 (p. 24).
* Never turn off the power or remove the SD cards while the screen indicates "Processing... "
