Trigger Settings; Selecting The Pad Type (Bank) - Roland V-Drums TD-30 Owner's Manual

Trigger Settings

Here's how to make trigger settings to ensure that
the trigger signals from the pads and pedals are
appropriately conveyed to the sound generator section.
If you specify the model (type) of pad that is connected
to each trigger input jack, the settings suitable for
each pad will be made. To specify the pad type, use the
[TRIGGER] button [F1] (BANK).
If you want to make additional fine adjustments for each
pad to further adjust the sensitivity etc., you can use the
[F2] (SENS) or [F5] (ADVANCE) button to do so.

Selecting the Pad Type (BANK)

To ensure that the signals from the pads can be
processed appropriately by the TD-30, you must specify
the type of pad you're using (the trigger type) for each
trigger input.
Trigger type
A trigger type is a group of trigger settings with values
optimally adjusted for a particular pad.
In order to make the most suitable settings for the pad
connected to each trigger input, specify the model (type)
of the pad that is connected.
Only when factors unrelated to the selection of the
proper trigger type prevent you from getting good
results in performance should you fine-tune the
individual parameters for the pad you are using.
Trigger bank
Trigger banks allow you to store the 15 trigger settings as
a single unit of information. The large number at the left
edge of the above display is the trigger bank number.
