[PHONES]
PHONES jack.

jack. As the output destination of the sound that's
[MIX IN] input from the MIX IN jack, you can choose the
MASTER OUT jacks, the PHONES jack, or the DIRECT

Making Hi-hat (VH-12) Settings

If you're using the VH-12 V-hi-hat, execute the offset
adjustment from the TD-20X after making connections.
This adjustment is required in order to correctly detect open,
close, and pedal operations.
1.
Loosen the clutch screw of the top hi-hat and let it
sit on the bottom hi-hat.
Do NOT touch the hi-hats or the pedal.
2.
Hold down the [KIT] button and press the
[TRIGGER] button.
The "VH Offset" parameter is set automatically (approx. 3
seconds).
The [TRIGGER] button stops flashing and remains lit.

If you need, make further adjustments to the parameters.
"Hi-Hat Settings [F3 (HI-HAT)]" (p. 99)
If you do not make VH-12's setting correctly, it may
cause malfunction. For details on attaching the hi-hat to
the stand, refer to the VH-12 owner's manual.
Adjusting Mesh Head Tension
(PD-125XS/125X/105X)
Before playing you must adjust the pad tension first.
You can tune/adjust the head tension as you would with an
acoustic drum, to get the same dynamic "feel."
The pad will function at it's best if you are sure to:
• Adjust the head evenly so that it does not sag.
• Adjust the tuning bolts so that they are not loose.

1.
Adjust each tuning bolt little by little, across the
head as indicated in the illustration. This assures
even tensioning.
• Fully tightening a tuning bolt at only a single location
produces uneven tensioning, and correct playing
dynamics may not be achieved. Even tuning/
tensioning is very important.
• Head tension will not affect the actual tuning of the
sound you are playing. For that you need to adjust
sound parameters in the sound module you are
using.
Also, head tension may change depending on usage.
Adjust as needed.
