IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT
SAFELY” on page 2–3, please read and observe the
following:
Maintenance
401a
Power Supply
301
• Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric
motor or variable lighting system).
302
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long
hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause
for concern.
307
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions
and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
Placement
351
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To
alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or
move it farther away from the source of interference.
352a
• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
352b
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of
this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience
such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices
so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch
them off.
354a
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature and/or humidity is very different, water
droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage
or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in
this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must
allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation
has completely evaporated.
4
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To
remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild,
non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the
unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Repairs and Data
452
• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s
memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs.
Important data should always be backed up on a CompactFlash card, or written down on paper (when possible).
During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data.
However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related to
memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not be
possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no
liability concerning such loss of data.
Additional Precautions
551
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against
the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that you
periodically save a backup copy of important data you
have stored in the unit’s memory on a CompactFlash card.
552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored in the unit’s memory, a CompactFlash card, or another MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer) once
it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability
concerning such loss of data.
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
554
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will
avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal
elements.
SPDS_e.book 5 ページ 2007年7月3日 火曜日 午後1時37分
558a
707
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s
volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use
headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about
those around you (especially when it is late at night).
• The SPD-S's memory card slot accepts CompactFlash
memory cards. Microdrive storage media by IBM are not
compatible.
558d
• This instrument is designed to minimize the extraneous
sounds produced when it’s played. However, since sound
vibrations can be transmitted through floors and walls to a
greater degree than expected, take care not to allow these
sounds to become a nuisance to neighbors, especially when
performing at night and when using headphones.
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
561
• Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold
separately). By connecting any other expression pedals,
you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
708
• CompactFlash cards are constructed using precision
components; handle the cards carefully, paying particular
note to the following.
• To prevent damage to the cards from static electricity,
be sure to discharge any static electricity from your
own body before handling the cards.
• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact with
the contact portion of the cards.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock or
vibration.
• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed vehicles,
or other such locations (storage temperature: -25˚C–
85˚C).
• Do not allow cards to become wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.
562
• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using
some other make of connection cable, please note the
following precautions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this
unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to
be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.
• The rubber portion of the striking surface is treated with a
preservative to maintain its performance. With the passage
of time, this preservative may appear on the surface as a
white stain, or reveal how the pads were struck during
product testing. This does not affect the performance or
functionality of the product, and you may continue using it
with confidence.
Handling CD-ROMs
801
• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM
discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean
using a commercially available CD cleaner.
Copyright
851
• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale, lending, public
performance, broadcasting, or the like, in whole or in part,
of a work (musical composition, video, broadcast, public
performance, or the like) whose copyright is held by a third
party is prohibited by law.
853
Before Using Cards
Using DATA Cards
• Do not use this unit for purposes that could infringe on a
copyright held by a third party. We assume no responsibility whatsoever with regard to any infringements of
third-party copyrights arising through your use of this
unit.
704
• Carefully insert the DATA card all the way in—until it is
firmly in place.
CompactFlash™
705
• Never touch the terminals of the DATA card. Also, avoid
getting the terminals dirty.

Main Features
A Sampler with Pads Perfect for Drummers and Percussionists
Nine pads housed in a compact body (p. 15)
The SPD-S offers nine playing surfaces: six pads with excellent responsiveness and feel, and three edge triggers that are easy to hit
with the shoulder of a stick—all within a compact body that can easily be installed as part of a drum or percussion set.
Easy operation for sampling (p. 25, p. 52)
As a simple sampler freeing you from complicated operation, the SPD-S allows you to readily sample percussion sounds and
phrases to use them in your performance.
Preset sounds that can be used as soon as you unpack the unit (p. 133, p. 134)
The SPD-S comes with preset sounds including percussion sounds, drum sounds, sound effects, and phrase loops.
A wide array of sampling modes (p. 52, p. 58)
The SPD-S supports three sampling modes suited to different sound qualities and phrase lengths: FINE for CD quality sampling,
STANDARD, and LONG. With a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz, it also supports stereo sampling. An approximate maximum of
twelve minutes of sound can be stored in the internal memory (in mono in the LONG mode).
Handy Phrase Maker function (p. 63)
The SPD-S has a Phrase Maker function that records a performance made with pads and resamples it to convert it to a wave. It
enables you to create an original phrase.
Producing Highly Expressive Sounds
Two different sounds from a single playing surface (p. 30, p. 34)
On the SPD-S, you can assign two waves to a single playing surface. The two waves can be switched using strike intensity or with
foot switches.
Thirty effect algorithms (p. 92) plus ambience effects (p. 76)

Connecting External Devices
While referring to the illustration on the previous page, take the following steps:
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.
2. Connect the supplied AC adaptor to the AC Adaptor jack.
To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit (should the plug be pulled out accidentally), and to avoid
applying undue stress to the AC adaptor jack, anchor the power cord using the cord hook, as shown on the previous page.
3. Connect an audio system or an amplifier to the OUTPUT jacks. To use headphones, connect them to the
PHONES jack.
To sample (p. 25, p. 52), connect an input device (like a CD player or a microphone) to the INPUT jacks.
4. Insert the plug of the AC adaptor into a power outlet.
Q: The volume level of the instrument connected to INPUT jacks is too low.
A: Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.

■ Notes on Giving a Performance
Number of waves that can be reproduced simultaneously
The SPD-S can reproduce a maximum of eight voices simultaneously. A wave
for which Mode (in Sampling -> p. 58) is set to STEREO or Grade (in
Sampling ->p. 58) is set to FINE has two voices. A wave in STEREO and in
FINE grade has four voices.
If you try to reproduce more than eight voices, the wave of the pad that was
hit earlier is stopped to give preference to reproducing the wave of the pad
that was struck later. In this case, reproduction of a wave for which Type (p.
45) is set to SINGLE is discontinued earlier than a PHRASE-type wave.

Descriptions
Set it to ON to change the volume according to playing velocity. When it is set to OFF, the
sound is produced at a constant volume.
This determines if the sound on any particular pad is sent to the effects. When it is set to VELO, effect parameters (those specified in VELO in individual effect types) are controlled by
the strike intensity.
* The pad indicators will light when this parameter is set to ON or VELO.
The start or attack of the sound is reduced when the pad/trigger is hit softly and increases
with playing velocity. It is suitable for sounds like percussion.
* If the start point (p. 47) is not adequately defined for a wave, no satisfactory effect is produced.
Pads/triggers that are assigned the same number form a mute group. Within a mute group,
the sounds cancel out one another, and only the sound from the pad/trigger that’s struck
last is reproduced.
* The lit pad indicators show that their corresponding pads/triggers belong to the same
mute group.
When it is set to ON, the tempo of the sound assigned to the pad is synchronized with the
sync tempo of the patch (See Sync Tempo in PATCH COMMON -> p. 37).
* The pad indicator is lit when this parameter is set to ON for the corresponding pad/trigger.
* If you hold down [FUNC] and press [-]/[+], you can change Sync Tempo (in PATCH
COMMON -> p. 37).
Determines the note number assigned to each pad, which will be transmitted from the MIDI
OUT connector. See the table below for initial values.
* When it is set to OFF, no note message is sent or received via MIDI.
* If the same note number is assigned to more than one pads, the wave assigned to the
pad/trigger with the lowest number (see the table below) will sound when the SPD-S
receives note message with the note number concerned. A “*” symbol is indicated on the
screen for playing surfaces with assigned sounds that are not reproduced when note
message is received.
Allows you to determine the length (gate time) of the notes that will be transmitted from the
MIDI OUT connector, on an individual pad basis. The value can be changed in steps of 0.1
second.
Volume variation cannot be activated with a foot switch.
If you hold down [SHIFT] and press [FUNC], the parameter is reset to its initial value.
If you hold down [SHIFT] and press [ENTER], the parameter is copied to all other pads/triggers.

Notes on Tempo Sync
• Tempo Sync is not applicable to waves of which:
1. Type (in WAVE SETUP in Wave Edit -> p. 45) is SINGLE.
In this event, "---" is indicated for Tempo on the screens on Beat (in WAVE SETUP in Wave Edit -> p. 46) and on Meas (in
WAVE SETUP in Wave Edit -> p. 46).
3. Reverse (in WAVE SETUP in Wave Edit -> p. 46) is set to ON.
• The wave tempo is variable within the range from 50% to 130%. If Sync Tempo (in PATCH COMMON -> p. 37) exceeds this
range, the wave tempo is doubled or halved so that it can stay within the range.
• When Tempo Sync is applied, there may be some outstanding noise.

Wave
A wave is a combination of a "sound material" created by sampling a sound
of musical instruments, a voice or a performance and the settings at sound
reproduction. A wave is assigned to a playing surface in patch mode so that
it can be used in an actual performance.
The SPD-S stores a maximum of 399 waves in its internal memory and 500
waves on a memory card.

A wave created by sampling a sound, especially a percussion sound, may involve a slight
loss (for about 0.3 millisecond) at the beginning. To prevent this loss, it is advisable to
sample the sound with StartLvl set to OFF and then to monitor the sampled sound for
defining a start point (p. 48).
Select MONO or STEREO for the wave. If you select stereo, the wave uses two voices. The initial value is MONO.
Specify the Grade (quality) of the wave. The initial value is STANDARD.
LONG: Lower sound quality than STANDARD, but uses half the memory space of STANDARD.
STANDARD: Great quality sound.
FINE: Highest sound quality but consumes double the memory space used by STANDARD. Two voices are utilized in this grade.
Set the wave type to SINGLE or PHRASE. (p. 45) The initial value is SINGLE.
Select SINGLE for ordinary sampling. Producing clicking sounds, PHRASE is useful when
sampling the performance of musical instruments. When sampling a tune the tempo of which
is known to you, preset the tempo and the beat to terminate sampling at a bar near the position

Chapter 6 Using a CompactFlash Memory Card
Parameters for Card Utilities
FILE IMPORT
Here's how to import audio files from memory cards.
Audio files (WAV/AIFF) stored on devices such as computers can be imported via memory cards to the SPD-S.
You may not be able to work with files using the computer when the memory card has reached the "memory full!" (p. 130) stage.
In such instances, reduce the amount of data on the memory card.
Notes on Importing Audio Files (WAV/AIFF)
• When you want to copy or save any audio file (WAV/AIFF) on a CompactFlash card using a computer or other device,
place it at the root (uppermost level) of the CompactFlash card. The SPD-S does not import any files from anywhere
other than the root.
• When importing, the SPD-S recognizes a maximum of 100 audio files.
• File names that have more than eight characters or that contain Japanese characters will not appear properly.
• Make sure that a WAV file has a “.wav” extension and that an AIFF file has an “.aif” extension. The SPD-S does NOT
recognize any files with other extensions.
• The SPD-S supports 8 bits or 16 bits for sample bits.
• Sample rate conversion is not supported. Files are imported at the sample rate of 44.1 kHz. If any files with sample rates
other than 44.1 kHz are imported, they produce a deviation in playback pitch.
• Loop points set in AIFF files are disabled.
• If you try to import any WAV/AIFF file in a format that is not supported by the SPD-S, an error message of
“unsupported!” is displayed. No such file can be imported.
• No compressed audio files (WAV/AIFF) can be imported.
Chapter 6
• It may be impossible to import audio files (WAV/AIFF) of an extremely short duration.

strike the hardest.
Choose the velocity curve (p. 78) for the pads to select the mode of change in volume
according to the playing velocity.
You may hear a sound twice though you feel you have hit a pad only once. This is a
parameter to prevent this phenomenon. A second trigger signal within the specified
time is ignored. If the value is too large, the SPD-S cannot keep up with your repeated
strikes.
If you want to play the pads with your hand, choose a slightly higher value.

Chapter 7 Changing the Setup (Overall Environment)
When you set Trig Type, the following parameters are set to their recommended values. However, you’ll need to adjust them so
they more precisely match the way your pads and other devices are mounted, and on how you use them.
When InputMode is set to TRGx2, Sensitivity, Threshold, VeloCrv, Scan Time, RetrigCancel, Mask Time, and XtalkCancel can be
set for individual playing surfaces. Hit a pad/trigger or hold down [SHIFT] and press the PAGE buttons to change the pad/
trigger. Verify with the flashing pad indicators.
Parameter
Sensitivity
Value
1–16
Threshold
0–15
Descriptions
Define the sensitivity of the pad or the like to control the balance between the strike
force and the sound volume. As the value increases, the sensitivity gets higher, which
means that a louder sound is produced with weak strikes.
Specify the value while watching the velocity indication (p. 77) to ensure that the velocity is at 127 when you strike with the greatest force.
Specify the strike force threshold, above which the SPD-S accepts trigger signals, to
prevent the pad or the like from being affected by the vibrations around it. In the diagram below, signal B is played back, but signals A and C are not.
Threshold

EXP1, EXP2,
LOG1, LOG2,

C
If you specify a high value, no sound is produced when you strike weakly.
Raise the value gradually while hitting the pad or the like. Hit it weakly to check. If
any sound is missing, lower the value slightly. Repeat this control to define the bestsuited value.
Specify the velocity curve (p. 78) for the pad or the like to select the mode of change
in volume according to the strike force.
Because of a slight variation in the attack time of trigger signal depending on the pad
type or the characteristics peculiar to acoustic drum triggers, the SPD-S may occasionally produce a weaker or stronger sound if you hit a pad at the same strength. In
this case, define the time for the detection of trigger signal (scan time) to ensure that
the strike force is correctly detected.
As the value increases, the time until sound production is increased. Specify the
smallest possible value.

Setting the value
Raise the scan time value gradually from 0 ms while hitting the pad or the like at

Specify the value while watching the velocity indication (p. 77) to ensure that the
velocity is at 127 when you strike with the greatest force.

Parameter
RetrigCancel
(Retrigger
Cancel)
Value
1–16
Descriptions
When you hit a snare drum equipped with an acoustic drum trigger, a sound may be
improperly produced (retriggered) at point A in the following diagram as well, because the waveform is erratic.
A
Time
This phenomenon is most likely to appear near the point where a waveform fades
away. RetrigCancel detects disorder in the waveform to prevent the retriggering phenomenon.
As the value increases, a sound is less likely to be retriggered but some sounds are
more likely to fail to be produced when you repeatedly hit a drum quickly. Checking
that the sound is not retriggered, specify the smallest possible value.
Mask Time
0–64 (in steps of 4 ms),
96, 128, 256 ms
Configuration of the Mask Time (described below) can also prevent double
reproduction of a sound like this. Mask Time is for ignoring a second trigger
signal within the time defined after reception of the first trigger signal, whereas
RetrigCancel is for detecting attenuation in trigger signal level to determine
whether a trigger signal is something that has been generated with a proper
strike, or is something to be ignored.
Setting the value
While hitting the pad or the like, raise the RetrigCancel value until the retriggering
phenomenon no longer occurs.
A second contact of the beater just after producing a sound, especially with a kick
pad, may cause double triggering. Mask Time functions in preventing this phenomenon. A second trigger signal generated within the specified time (from 0 to 256 ms)
is ignored.
As the value increases, some sounds are more likely to fail to be produced when you
quickly and repeatedly strike a kick pad. Specify the smallest possible value.
Mask Time
Time
Ignored
If you hear a sound twice though you have hit a pad or the like only once, adjust
RetrigCancel as described above.
Setting the value
While sounding the kick pad, raise the Mask Time value until bouncing (sound
production caused by a bounce of the beater) no longer occurs.

Chapter 7 Changing the Setup (Overall Environment)
Parameter
XtalkCancel
(Crosstalk
Cancel)
Value
OFF, 20–80%
Descriptions
For example, when two pads are mounted on a single stand, vibration generated by
striking on a pad may lead to improper production of the other sound. This phenomenon is called crosstalk.
By controlling XtalkCancel for the pad involving improper sound production, you
can eliminate this phenomenon.
With this parameter set to an excessive value, when you hit two pads at the same
time, the sound assigned to the pad receiving the weaker strike is not reproduced.
Specify the smallest possible value that still doesn’t produce any crosstalk. If it is set
to OFF, the crosstalk prevention function is disabled.
Mounting two pads apart from each other may prevent occurrence of the
crosstalk phenomenon.
This function cannot prevent crosstalk from any pads connected to other drum
sound modules. Mount the pads apart from each other.
Setting the value
When the sound assigned to the pad on Trigger Input 2 is produced by striking the
pad on Trigger Input 1:
While hitting the pad on Trigger Input 1, set the XtalkCancel value for the pad on
Trigger Input 2. Gradually raise the value from OFF until the sound of the pad on
Trigger Input 2 is no longer produced with any strike on the pad on Trigger Input
1. As the value is increased, the pad on Trigger Input 2 is less prone to crosstalk
from Trigger Input 1.
When InputMode is set to HD&RM and Type to PD-80R, PD-120 or RT-5S set the following parameter.
Parameter
Rim Sens
(Rim Sensitivity)
Value
OFF, 1–20
Descriptions
Control the sensitivity of the rim. As the value increases, the rim is more likely to produce a sound.
When it is set to OFF, the instrument of the head is reproduced at a rim shot. Note that if the value
is too large, the instrument of the rim will be produced when you strike the head.
When InputMode is set to HD&RM, and Type is anything other than PD-80/100, RT-7K, and RT-3T, set the following parameter.
Value
0.5–2.0
Descriptions
Control the sensitivity of the rim. Configure this parameter to change the sensitivity of the rim alone
with that of the head left unchanged.

Effect List
Configure the effects to be applied to a patch.
Use the PAGE buttons to select the parameter, and press [-]/[+] to change the value.
Useful Functions for Changing Effect Parameters (Patch Edit)
• The pad indicator is lit when Effects SW (p. 36) in PAD CONTROL is set to ON or VELO for the corresponding playing
surface.
* No effects are applied to the playing surfaces for which the pad indicators are unlit.
* In the screen for parameter “Velo” in effect types, only the pad indicators for the playing surfaces for which Effects SW in PAD
CONTROL is set to VELO are lit.
• Each time you hold down [SHIFT] and hit a playing surface, the value of Effects SW (p. 36) in PAD CONTROL is alternately
set to ON and OFF. No settings for any playing surface for which the Effects SW is set to VELO can be changed if you hold
down [SHIFT] and hit it.
• If you hold down [SHIFT] and press [FUNC], the parameter is reset to its initial value.
• If you hold down [EFFECTS] and press [EDIT] in patch mode, the SPD-S displays the effect parameter screen.
• If you press [FUNC] in an effect parameter screen for any parameter other than Type, Knob, Velo and Pedal, you can change
the value with the EFFECTS CONTROL knob as well as with [-]/[+]. This comes in handy when you want to make a
substantial change to a value. Press [FUNC] again to switch the EFFECTS CONTROL knob to its original function.
* For parameters with a wide value range, fine control cannot be made with the knob. Press [-]/[+] to make fine control.
• If you rotate the EFFECTS CONTROL knob, the reproduced sound is changed although the value on the screen is not
changed. If there is any difference between the reproduced sound and the value on the screen, a “*” symbol is displayed next
to the value. If you hold down [SHIFT] and press [EXIT], the changes made to the effects of the patch are cancelled and the
“*” symbol disappears.
• If you change the effect type, parameter values for different effect types are remembered. When you change the patch,
the parameters for all the effect types other than the one currently selected are reset to their respective initial values.

Effect Synchronization (Phrase Sync)
The following effects can automatically be synchronized with the tempo of the wave played back. (Phrase Sync)
4: SYNC-DELAY
9: STEPFLANGER
29: SHORTLOOPER
30: SLICER
The parameters for these effect types include Tempo and PhraseSync (or Sync for STEPFLANGER).
• When PhraseSync is set to OFF, or when Sync is set to FIXED for STEPFLANGER, the effect sound is synchronized with
an effect parameter of Tempo. While a wave is played back, synchronization is not redone.
• When PhraseSync is set to ON, or when Sync is set to PHRASE for STEPFLANGER and if the wave played back has any
tempo, the effect sound is synchronized with the tempo. Even when they are being synchronized with the tempo of the
wave currently played back, the effect sound is resynchronized with the tempo of the wave playback later. If the played
back wave has no tempo, synchronization is made with the Tempo of the effect parameter. In this case, synchronization
is not redone while any wave is played back.

Restoring the Factory Settings Using the
Accompanying CD
The accompanying CD contains audio signals for sampling on the SPD-S and digital data for restoring the SPD-S to its factory
settings.
Restoring Patches and Waves to the Factory Settings
Once you execute this operation, you will lose all the patches and waves stored in the internal memory. Back up such data
beforehand if needed. (BACKUP SAVE in card utilities -> p. 73)
Prepare the following items:
• A computer with a CD-ROM drive
• A card reader that supports CompactFlash cards
• The accompanying CD
• A CompactFlash card (formatted using the SPD-S)
Formatting using the SPD-S -> p. 67
Take the following steps:
1. Connect the card reader to the computer to ensure that it can be used.
For connecting the card reader to the computer and using them, see their respective operation manuals.
2. Load the accompanying CD into the CD-ROM drive.
3. Insert the CompactFlash card into the card reader.
4. Copy the “FCTRY” folder on the accompanying CD to the “ROLAND” folder on the CompactFlash card.
If the “ROLAND” folder on the CompactFlash card already has a “FCTRY” folder, delete the “FCTRY” folder before
copying.
5. Eject the CompactFlash card to which the copying was done in Step 4 from the card reader. Then, make
sure that the SPD-S is powered off and insert it into the card slot of the SPD-S.
Appendices
6. While holding down [PATCH], [WAVE], and [CARD] switch ON the SPD-S.
After powering it on, hold down the three buttons until “[ENTER] to Load” appears.

7. “[ENTER] to Load” appears. Release the three buttons. Next, press [ENTER].
Data transfer from the CompactFlash card to the SPD-S begins. It takes a few minutes until it is complete.
During the data transfer, do not eject the CompactFlash card from the card slot and do not switch off power to the SPD-S.
Doing so could not only destroy the data, but also cause problems for the SPD-S.
8. “Load Completed!” appears, and the data transfer is complete. Now, eject the CompactFlash card,
power the SPD-S off, then power it on again.

■Calculation of the Checksum of Exclusive
Messages
Roland Exclusive messages (RQ1, DT1) are transmitted with a checksum at the end
(before F7) to make sure that the message was correctly received.
The value of the checksum is determined by the address and data (or size) of the
transmitted exclusive message.
❍How to calculate the checksum (hexadecimal numbers are
indicated by “H”)
The checksum is a value derived by adding the address, size and checksum itself
and inverting the lower 7 bits.
Here’s an example of how the checksum is calculated.
We will assume that in the exclusive message we are transmitting, the address is aa
bb cc ddH and the data or size is ee ff gg hhH.
aa + bb + cc + dd + ee + ff + gg + hh = sum
sum / 128 = quotient ... remainder
128 - remainder = checksum
(However, the checksum will be 0 if the remainder is 0.)
Decimal values such as MIDI channel, bank select, and program change are
listed as one(1) greater than the values given in the above table.
A 7-bit byte can express data in the range of 128 steps. For data where greater
precision is required, we must use two or more bytes. For example, two
hexadecimal numbers aa bbH expressing two 7-bit bytes would indicate a value
of aa x 128 + bb.
<Example1> What is the decimal expression of 5AH?
From the preceding table, 5AH = 90
<Example2> What is the decimal expression of the value 12 34H
given as hexadecimal for each 7 bits?
Appendices
From the preceding table, since 12H = 18 and 34H = 52
18 x 128 + 52 = 2356

Troubleshooting
This section outlines points to check if you experience
problems, and what to do about them.
Is Sensitivity set to a low value?
Raise the Sensitivity value. (p. 77, p. 81, p. 83)
Is Local Control set to OFF?
If so, pads are separated from the sound generator and as a
result no sound is produced when they’re struck. Set the
Local Control to ON. (p. 84)
No Sound/Volume too Low
Certain Pads Don’t Sound
Are the SPD-S and external devices connected
correctly?
Is the level of WAVE A/B low?
Check the connections. (p. 20)
An audio cable may be broken.
You may be using an audio cable with a built-in
resistor.
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor (e.g.,
Roland PCS series).
The volume of a connected amp or mixer may be
turned down.
Adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
The volume of SPD-S may be turned down.
Adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
Can you here sound through the headphones?
If there is sound through the headphones, the problem may
be that a connecting cable is damaged, or there is a problem
with the amp or mixer. Check the amplification system and
the audio connections. (p. 20)
Is the pad indicator or [START/STOP] lit when you
want to play back a wave?
When you hit a pad in patch mode, the pad indicator lights
and the wave is played back. If it is not lit after a strike,
“I000 OFF” or an empty wave is assigned to the pad.
Assign a non-empty wave to the pad or execute sampling/
resampling.
When you hit a pad in wave mode, [START/STOP] lights
and the wave is played back. If it is not lit after a strike,
“I000 OFF” or an empty wave is selected. Select a nonempty wave or execute sampling/resampling.
Adjust the level of WAVE A/B. (p. 34)
Is the effects level low?
The level can be controlled with the EFFECTS CONTROL
knob for some effect types. For effect types and
controllability using the EFFECTS CONTROL knob, see
“Effect list.” (p. 92)
Is Ctrl SW set to REC-REH, TAP TEMPO or SOUND
OFF?
If so, the sound assigned to the pad cannot be triggered. Set
the control switch to OFF. (p. 79)
Sound Production Is Disrupted
Is Mute Group set to anything other than OFF?
Set Mute Group to OFF. (p. 36)
Is Trigger in Wave Edit set to ALTERNATE?
If so, the wave is alternately muted and reproduced each
time you hit a pad. Set Trigger to SHOT to reproduce the
wave each time you hit the pad. (p. 46)
Is the Mask Time value appropriate?
Sometimes you can inadvertently produce a second hit on a
pad even though you think you’ve hit it just once; the stick’s
momentum can cause it to touch the pad right after the first
hit. In such situations, if the trigger mode for the wave is set
to ALT, sound production is stopped if there is a second
strike. Raise the Mask Time value. (p. 77, p. 82)

Troubleshooting
Sound Production Is not Stopped
Press [ALL SOUND OFF] to stop all sounds being
produced. (p. 31)
Is Trigger in Wave Edit set to SHOT?
If so, sound production lasts until the end point of the
wave, so you may feel that the sound is continuing
endlessly when a long wave is played back. If Trigger is set
to ALT, the wave is alternately reproduced or muted each
time you hit the playing surface. (p. 46)
Is Loop in Wave Edit set to ON?
Set Loop to OFF. (p. 46)
The Volume Is Unchangeable
Is Dynamics set to OFF?
Set Dynamics to ON. (p. 36)
The Volume Cannot Be Properly
Controlled with Strike Strength
Are Sensitivity and VeloCurve set appropriately?
Adjust Sensitivity and VeloCurve. (p. 77, p. 81, p. 83)
An Externally Input Sound Is not
Produced, or Is Produced at a Low
Volume
Is Input Mix set to OFF?
To produce an externally input sound in any event other
than sampling, set Input Mix to ON. During sampling, an
externally input sound is produced irrespective of the Input
Mix value. (p. 76)
Is the input level low?
Turn the INPUT LEVEL knob to an appropriate level. (p. 26,
p. 54, p. 56)
Is the volume of the device connected to LINE IN
jacks low?
Adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
You may be using an audio cable with a built-in
resistor.
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor (e.g.,
Roland PCS series).
126
Mic Sound Is not Output/Is too
Weak
The input source may be set to LINE.
Set the MIC/LINE switch on the rear panel to “MIC”.
The mic level may have been lowered.
Use the INPUT LEVEL knob on the rear panel to adjust the
level appropriately. (p. 26, p. 54, p. 56)
Can’t Record a Wave
If you are attempting to sample to a memory card,
has the memory card been formatted by the SPD-S?
Format the memory card with the SPD-S. (p. 67)
A Sampled Sound Contains Much
Noise or Distortion
Is the input level appropriate?
If the input level is too high, the sampled sound may be
distorted. If it is too low, the sampled sound may contain
overt noise. Adjust the INPUT LEVEL knob while watching
the level meter displayed on the screen to maximize the
input level within the range in which the excess level
indication remains unlit. (p. 26, p. 54, p. 56)
Are the effect settings appropriate?
Some types of effect may increase the level louder than the
original sample, or may intentionally distort the sound.
Some effects will also cause noise to be emphasized.
Temporarily turn off effects, and check whether the wave
itself contains noise or distortion. Then adjust the effect
settings appropriately. For the relation between effect types
and control knobs, refer to “Effects List.” (p. 92)

Problems with Internal
Memory
Data Was not Saved Correctly in
Internal Memory
Is the memory card formatted correctly?
Only memory cards that have been formatted by the SPD-S
can be used. Please format the memory card. (p. 67)
Problems When Using an
External Pad
It is possible that the power was turned off while
data was being written into internal memory.
The lost data cannot be recovered. In this case, it is possible
that all of the internal memory data may be damaged. If
you continue using the SPD-S in this state, further
malfunctions may occur. Please initialize the internal
memory. When you initialize, all data in internal memory
will be lost.
Problems with a Memory
Card
Data Was not Saved Correctly in a
Memory Card
It is possible that the power was turned off while
data was being written into the memory card.
The lost data cannot be recovered. In this case, it is possible
that the data of the entire memory card has been damaged.
If you continue using the SPD-S in this state, further
malfunctions may occur. Please format the memory card.
When you format, all data in the memory card will be lost.
No Sound
Is InputMode set appropriately?
If using two pads, set it to TRGx2.
If using a pad with the rim-shot feature, set it to HD&RM.
To use the rim-shot/edge-shot/bell-shot features, connect a
pad using a stereo cable that comes with the pad product. In
this case, you can connect one pad only. (p. 80)
The Volume Cannot Be Properly
Controlled Through Strike Intensity
Is Trig Type set appropriately?
Specify the trigger type according to the pad in use. Adjust
Sensitivity and VeloCurve. (p. 77, p. 81, p. 83)
