TD-9 Setup: (coming soon!)
The Master 50 expansion pack for the Roland TD-9 module is a specially designed pack for recording and live use and features 50 modeled artist drum sets from their original recordings. These kits are designed for general use and have been optimized for stereo headphone and recording output use. As always, minor adjustments may be needed when recording and/or monitoring with headphones to suit your personal tastes.
Based on a standard set-up including CR2 as a crash/splash/or china cymbal and Aux1 programmed as crash/splash cymbal or as a Tom 4; you’ll choose what version kit you want to load. There are 4 backups altogether for use with different ride cymbal configurations. We highly recommend you load in our kits as a “Kits” Only backup, to preserve your custom created setup unique to your e-kit. We encourage you to make a back up of both your kits and setup(s) before executing our download to your module.
Two backups include the programmed ride edge for use with the CY-12r/c or the CY-15r ride cymbals. For proper use of the 3 way triggering system, please refer to our manual for the correct plug insert options for your ride cymbal.
All toms have the rim trigger programmed as the acoustic rim sound when applicable. Some kits will feature a cowbell on the Rim of Tom 1 and /or 2, and/or a lower tom 5 on the rim of tom 4.
The Master 50 expansion pack has been ear-created on the TD-9 from scratch on its own platform. All kits have been tested in a general use capacity . You will need a USB connection on your computer and a formatted USB Key (flash drive) to properly execute this download. Check your TD-9 manual for further requirements using a USB Key drive.

Important note: Remember to change the module's pad settings to MATCH YOUR PADS. By doing so, the correct volumes and pad response will take affect for your module and setup.
Hint: Your setup does not have to match ours! If you have a different set up than default, you can easily move instruments around within each kit. This is accomplished by using the "COPY" feature in your module.
