TD-3 Operation
OVERVIEW
The following details show some of the basic operations
of the TD-3. Keep it simple to start with, until you become
familiar with the steps required, and it becomes routine.
There are four pattern groups, I, II, III and IV.
Each pattern group can have up to eight A patterns and
eight B patterns. Each pattern can have up to 16 steps. The
default step is a 16th note.
A pattern of desired notes is rst entered in PITCH MODE,
and then the timing of each note is added in TIME MODE.
WRITING A PATTERN
As an example, we will program pattern 1A of pattern
group I.
All writing (pitch and timing) is done in
PATTERN WRITE Mode.
Writing the notes in PITCH MODE
1. Turn the MODE switch to PATTERN WRITE.
2. Turn the PATTERN GROUP switch to Group I, position
1 or 2 (it does not matter which).
3. Press FUNCTION, and the nearby NORMAL MODE LED
will turn on, and one of the PATTERN switch LEDs
will be ashing.
4. Press the PATTERN 1 switch (note C) and its LED will
ash, showing that we are getting ready to program
it. (Press it anyway, even if it is already ashing.)
5. Press the PATTERN A switch (100) and its LED will
turn on (it may even be on already).
6. If PATTERN 1A already exists, press and hold the
PATTERN 1 switch and then press CLEAR. If you now
press START/STOP, you should not hear a pattern.
(Remember to press START/STOP once more to get
out of play mode.)
7. Enter the number of steps in your pattern, by
holding down FUNCTION and pressing the STEP
switch by the number of steps required. For
example, you can press it 8 times. If you skip this
step, then the pattern will be 16 steps.
8. Press PITCH MODE and its LED will turn on. Now you
can enter the notes required for your pattern by
pressing any of the 13 notes in the keyboard.
9. To change the octave for a note, press and hold
either of the TRANSPOSE up or down switches and
then press the required note.
Checking and editing notes
10. To listen to the pattern of notes, press PITCH MODE
to return to the start of the pattern, and press
WRITE/NEXT to play the notes one at a time. (Press
PITCH MODE at any time to return to the start.)
11. To change a note that has just played, press BACK
to go back to that step. Then press the new note
(or to change octave, press and hold either of the
TRANSPOSE up or down switches and then press the
desired note).
12. Continue to press WRITE/NEXT until all notes have
been played, or press PITCH MODE to return to the
start, or FUNCTION to exit PITCH MODE.
13. To redo the whole pattern, repeat step 3 onwards.
Writing the timing in TIME MODE
After all notes have been entered, you need to enter the
timing of each note in TIME MODE. Note: While in TIME
MODE, no sounds will be heard.
14. Press the TIME MODE switch and its LED will turn on.
15. In TIME MODE, you can play the NOTE as it is, or add a
TIE, or a REST using three switches as shown above.
For example, for 16 notes, you could press these
three switches as follows: Note, Rest, Rest, Note, Tie,
Note, Note, Tie, Note, Note, Tie, Note, Note, Note,
Tie, Note. Whenever you reach the required number
of notes (which you set in procedure 7 above), it will
automatically exit TIME MODE.
Note: To play all the notes just as they are,
repeatedly press the NOTE switch until you exit TIME
MODE. This will create a simple Arpeggio.
Checking and editing timing
16. To check the timing is OK, press TIME MODE, and
press WRITE/NEXT to cycle through the pattern
steps, one at a time. Look at the LEDs to see which
step is a note, tie, or rest.
17. To change the timing of the pattern, repeat steps
14 and 15 to re-enter the new timing. (Press TIME
MODE at any time to return to the start of the
pattern.)
18. Now that the notes and timing have been added,
you can play the pattern by pressing FUNCTION to
return to normal mode, and then press START/STOP.
As the pattern repeats, you can change the TEMPO
and adjust the synthesizer controls as required.
Alternative timing method
There is another way of entering the timing:
19. Press FUNCTION and then START/STOP to play the
existing pattern.
20. Press the CLEAR switch and you will hear a
metronome, with a downbeat at the beginning of
the pattern.
21. Tap on the TAP switch, in the timing you would
like. Turn down the TEMPO if this will help. To add
Sustain, press and hold down TAP.
22. Repeat steps 20 and 21 until the timing sounds good
(or repeat steps 14 and 15 if you prefer this method).
Adding or deleting ACCENT and SLIDE
23. While still in PATTERN WRITE MODE, press PITCH
MODE and its LED will turn on. Press WRITE/NEXT
repeatedly to play each note of the current pattern.
24. When you reach a note that you would like to add
an accent or a slide to, keep holding the WRITE/
NEXT(don’t release it). If you go past a note you want
to change, press BACK rst, then press and hold
WRITE/NEXT.

9. While the pattern is playing, you can press another
PATTERN switch 1 to 8, or A or B and it will play that
as soon as the current pattern is nished.
10. If you press and hold a PATTERN switch and then
press another one at the same time, this will select
both patterns and all the patterns in between, and
play them in order. This is a good way of hearing
multiple patterns before you make a track.
TRACKS
After you have created a few patterns, you can add them
together to form a TRACK.
1. Rotate the MODE switch to the TRACK WRITE
position.
2. Rotate the TRACK switch to one of the available
positions 1 to 7. This also selects the pattern group
to be used. For example, TRACK 1 and 2 can only
select from patterns saved in PATTERN GROUP
I. TRACK 3 and 4 can only select patterns from
PATTERN GROUP II.
3. Press CLEAR to reset the track to the beginning.
4. Press START/STOP, and the TD-3 will play the current
pattern of the selected track. (Tracks are only
written while the unit is playing, and not stopped.)
5. Select the rst pattern to add to track. For example,
if you wanted to play a previously recorded pattern
2A, press 2 (note D) then press A (labled 100), even if
it is already selected, and pattern 2A should play.
6. Press WRITE/NEXT to add this to the track
7. Select the next pattern in the same way. To add a
transpose, hold PITCH MODE and choose a key, and
the pattern playing will change pitch to the new key.
8. Press WRITE/NEXT to enter this pattern.
9. Continue adding patterns in the same way.
10. When you reach the last pattern, press CLEAR to let
the TD-3 know this is the last pattern in the track.
11. Press WRITE/NEXT.
12. Press START/STOP to nish.
TD-3 Operation (continued)
25. Press ACCENT and/or SLIDE as required, to add it to
the note. (If these are already added to this note,
they will be deleted.) Then release WRITE/NEXT.
26. The ACCENT control knob will only a ect those notes
that have ACCENT applied.
27. If the last note of a pattern is a slide, then:
28. In TRACK PLAY mode, this will slide to the next
pattern in a track (when the pattern is added to a
track).
29. In PATTERN WRITE/PLAY mode, if there is only one
pattern, it will slide to the beginning of itself. If
there are two or more patterns, it will slide to next
pattern.
PLAYING A PATTERN
Although you can play the patterns while the MODE switch
is in the PATTERN WRITE position, use the PATTERN PLAY
position during normal pattern playing. This will prevent
you from accidentally erasing the patterns with the CLEAR
switch.
The patterns are recalled by setting the PATTERN GROUP
switch to position I, II, III, or IV and then using the PATTERN
switches 1 to 8, and the A and B switches
1. Turn the MODE switch to the PATTERN PLAY position.
2. Turn the PATTERN GROUP switch to the group where
your desired pattern was stored, either I, II, III, or IV.
3. Press the FUNCTION switch, and the NORMAL MODE
LED will turn on.
4. Press the desired PATTERN switch 1 to 8, and its LED
will ash.
5. Press the desired A or B switch and its LED will light.
6. Press the START/STOP switch to play the pattern.
7. Adjust the synthesizer controls, the TEMPO, and the
distortion, and have fun.
8. If you press and hold PITCH MODE, and then press
one of the 13 keys of the keyboard, the current
pattern will be transposed to that key when the
pattern restarts.
Playing Tracks
1. Rotate the MODE switch to the TRACK PLAY position.
2. Rotate the TRACK switch to the desired track.
3. Press CLEAR to reset the track to the beginning.
4. Press START/STOP to play the track.
Deleting Patterns from a Track
To remove one pattern from the track, just select that
Pattern number. For example, to delete the third pattern
in a track:
1. Rotate the MODE switch to the TRACK WRITE
position.
2. Rotate the TRACK switch to the track to be edited.
3. Select the third pattern in the track by holding
FUNCTION down and pressing PATTERN 3.
4. Delete by holding FUNCTION down and then
pressing DEL (C sharp).
5. Rotate the MODE switch to the TRACK PLAY position.
6. Press CLEAR to reset the track to the start.
7. Press START/STOP to play the track and listen to the
changes.
Inserting Patterns into a Track
For example, to add a pattern before the 5th pattern in
a track:
1. Rotate the MODE switch to the TRACK WRITE
position.
2. Rotate the TRACK switch to the track to be edited.
3. Select the fth pattern in the track by holding
FUNCTION down and pressing PATTERN 5.
4. Add by holding FUNCTION down and pressing INS (D
sharp). The new pattern will be added to the track.
5. Press the START/STOP switch and the current pattern
added will play.
6. Select the pattern you want to play by pressing
its selector 1 to 8 and the A and B switches. The
selected pattern will play.
7. Press TAP to store the change.
8. Press START/STOP to stop play.
9. Rotate the MODE switch to the TRACK PLAY position.
10. Press CLEAR to reset the track to the start.
11. Press START/STOP to play the track and listen to the
changes.
Overwriting a Track
1. Existing tracks can be overwritten with a new track.
It is not necessary to delete all patterns in a track
when writing over an existing track with a shorter
track. This is because when the new track plays
its last pattern, it will automatically return to the
beginning.
