10 Panel Descriptions fig.Connect.eps • If you use an AC adaptor, use only the specified model (PSB-series). • When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the input (MIX IN jack) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.

12 Getting Ready to Play Removing the Batteries To remove the batteries, switch off the RMP-12’s power, detach the battery cover, and pull the end of the battery tie to remove the batteries. The batteries may fly out if you pull too strongly on a battery tie.
13 Getting Ready to Play Before you begin playing, use the included drum key to adjust the head tension for the desired strike response. The head is NOT tuned before shipping. Always tighten the tuning bolts in the order shown in the figure. fig.TuningBolt.
14 Getting Ready to Play Caution when attaching the RMP-12 to a marching carrier • If you want to attach the RMP-12 to a marching snare carrier, use the specified model (sold separately: Roland OP- RMP12 ). • Do not put your fingers between the RMP-12 and OP-RMP12.
15 Getting Ready to Play Attachment 1. Using the drum key included with the RMP-12 or a commercially available drum key, loosen the screws (A, two locations) by approximately 10 mm. fig.1j * Avoid placing fingers inside the holes in which the J-rods are inserted.
16 Getting Ready to Play 9. Attach the RMP-12 and lock it in place. fig.j * You must lock them when the RMP-12 is mounted. If they are not locked, the RMP-12 may detach from the marching carrier during performance, possibly causing malfunction or injury.
17 Getting Ready to Play Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your audio devices in the order specified. Turning on devices in the wrong order may cause malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices. 1. Turn the [PHONES VOLUME] knob to the minimum level.
18 Selecting Sounds A set of two sounds is assigned to each memory button [1]–[4]: one sound played by the head and another sound played by the rim. 1. Press one of the [1]–[4] buttons. The name of the sound set assigned to the selected button will be displayed for approximately two seconds.
19 Practicing 1. Press the [ (metronome)] button. The metronome will sound. The time check indicator will appear. The timer icon will appear, allowing you to view the elapsed time. 2. Use the select knob to set the tempo (20–300). 3. The time check indicator will respond when you strike the pad.
