Customizing a Drum Kit (KIT EDIT)
The TD-07 let’s you customize each pad’s sound and adjust the effects to your preferences.
* Since the TD-07 automatically saves the values that you change, there’s no need to perform a specific operation to save your
settings. Settings are also saved when you turn off the power.
