Owner’s Manual

Overview

¹ The WT-10 and DH-10 are ultra low-latency wireless systems that operate on Roland’s proprietary transmission/reception algorithms. ¹ With the WT-10 or DH-10, you can wirelessly connect your pads to your drum sound module or computer, without the trouble of messing around with cables.

WT-10 DH-10

Receives signals from the pads and transmits them wirelessly as performance data. You can connect up to two pads to the WT-10.
Receives wireless performance data and converts this into MIDI signals, which are transmitted to your electronic musical instrument or computer.
¹ This transmits the setting data (trigger and MIDI settings) from your electronic musical instrument or computer to the WT-10. The settings are saved on the DH-10.
¹ You can use a USB cable to connect the unit to your computer or to an electronic musical instrument, or transmit MIDI signals to your instrument via the MIDI OUT connector.
