Mounting the TD-50X on the stand
You can attach the TD-50X to a drum stand by using the sound module mounting
plate included with the drum stand (sold separately: MDS series, PDS series).
Using the screws on the bottom of the TD-50X, attach it as shown in the illustration.
* Do not use any screws other than the screws from the bottom of the TD-50X. Doing
so will cause malfunctions.
* When turning the unit over, be careful so as to protect the buttons and knobs from
damage. Also, handle the unit carefully; do not drop it.
MEMO
The All Purpose Clamp (APC-33; sold separately) can be attached to a pipe of 10.5–28.6
mm radius in case you want to mount the TD-50X on a cymbal stand or other such
stand.
