CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage

to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so

can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold

the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for

extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally

fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage

to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily

accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power

switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is

turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When

you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power

cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the

power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,

set all volume levels to minimum.

• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and

gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the

desired listening level.

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel.

This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the instrument or

other property, or operational failure.

• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not

use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

•

Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a high or

uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you

experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (display is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.

When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

DD-75 Owner’s Manual

Setting Up

Be sure to do the following operations BEFORE turning on the power.

Power Requirements

Although the instrument will run either from an AC adaptor

or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor

whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmen-

tally friendly than batteries and does not deplete

resources.

Using an AC Adaptor

Make sure that the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is off, then

connect the AC adaptor in the order shown in the illustra-

tion.

Using Batteries

This instrument requires C size, Alkaline (LR14)/Manga-

nese (R14) batteries, or rechargeable nickel-metal hydride

batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH batteries). The Alkaline bat-

teries or rechargeable Ni-MH batteries are recommended

for this instrument, since other types may result in poorer

battery performance.

1Make sure that the power of the instrument is off.

2Open the battery compartment cover located on

the instrument’s bottom panel.

3Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow

the polarity markings on the inside of the compart-

ment.

4Replace the compartment cover, making sure that

it locks firmly in place.

• Use only the specified AC adaptor (page 54). Using the

wrong AC adaptor can result in damage to the instrument

or overheating.

• When using the AC adaptor with a removable plug, make

sure to keep the plug attached to the AC adaptor. Using the

plug alone can cause electric shock or fire.

• Never touch the metallic section when attaching the plug.

To avoid electric shock, short circuit or damage, also be

careful that there is no dust between the AC adaptor and

plug.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet

you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or mal-

function occurs, immediately turn the power off and dis-

connect the plug from the outlet.

• Follow the order shown above in reverse when disconnecting

the AC adaptor/power cord.

WARNING

Plug

Slide the plug as indicated.

The shape of the plug differs

depending on your area.

CAUTION

NOTE

• Connecting or disconnecting the power adaptor with bat-

teries installed may turn the power off, resulting in loss of

data being recorded or transferred at the time.

• Make sure to set the battery type correctly (page 13).

About the Sensitivity Setting

For beginning percussionists, we recommend setting the sensitivity level higher, in order to

give a more consistent sound volume, even if the pads are hit weakly. For experienced per-

cussionists, we recommend setting it to lower levels. The strength at which pads are hit is

reflected directly, and more intense power is required to make a larger sound.

• If the pedal sound volume is unstable, we recommend that you set the value to “P-F”.

• With an Electronic drum pad KP65 (sold separately) or Electronic kick unit KU100 (sold separately), the sound

volume might seem low. Try increasing the volume setting sensitivity value.

About the Pad Sound Mechanism

Each time you strike a pad, the sensor which is located at the bottom of the pad triggers an

electronic signal and makes a drum sound.

If you strike a pad too strongly, nearby sensors may also respond to the hit and trigger

unwanted sounds. This instrument is set to ignore weak signals from the pads in order to

prevent inadvertent, unwanted sounds. However, this may result in problems when intention-

ally striking two pads simultaneously. If one pad is struck strongly and the other weakly, the

pad struck weakly may not sound (even though you want it to).

To solve this, you can change the settings or alter your playing technique (as described

below).

-Striking two pads simultaneously results in one of the pads not sounding.

Increase the pad sensitivity level. This may solve the problem if you strike one of the

pads weakly.

Better yet, take care to strike both pads with equal force.

-Striking one pad results in other pads also sounding, even though they were not

struck.

Lower the pad sensitivity level. With this setting, pads that are not struck are effec-

tively kept from responding to strong hits on nearby pads.

Troubleshooting

Problem Cause/Solution

Power suddenly and unexpectedly turns off. This is normal and the Auto Power Off function may

have been activated (page 14). If desired, disable the

Auto Power Off function.

When the instrument is turned on, power is turned

off suddenly and unexpectedly.

The protection circuit has been activated due to over

current. This may occur when an AC adaptor other than

the one specified is used, or an AC adaptor is damaged.

Use the specified adaptor (page 54) only. If it should

appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immedi-

ately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service

personnel.

A buzz or click occurs momentarily when the

instrument is turned ON or OFF

This is a normal power surge noise that occurs when

the POWER switch is operated.

The LED display is completely dark. The batteries are low and should be replaced with a

complete set of six new batteries immediately. Ideally,

an optional AC adaptor should be used to power the

instrument.

When the pads are struck (or pedals are pressed),

the display is dark and returns to “1”.

The Custom Kit voice assignments or sensitivity

settings of each pads and pedals have disap-

peared or defaulted.

When using a mobile phone, noise is produced. Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the instru-

ment may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off

the mobile phone or use it further away from the instru-

ment.

Noise is heard from the instrument’s speakers or

headphones when using the instrument with the

application on iPhone/iPad.

When you use the instrument along with the application

on your iPhone/iPad, we recommend that you set “Air-

plane Mode” to “ON” on your iPhone/iPad in order to

avoid noise caused by communication.

No sound comes from the instrument. • The volume is set too low. Adjust the volume (page

29).

• A plug is inserted into the [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack

and should be taken out (page 14).

• The LOCAL ON/OFF is set to OFF. Set the LOCAL

ON/OFF to ON (page 40).

Suddenly “FUL” appears and recording is stopped. The amount of recorded data has exceeded the limit of

7,000 notes per song.

Song is automatically started when pad is struck

(or pedal is pressed).

Pad Start is set to ON. Set Pad Start to OFF (page 30).

 The voice is recorded in stereo.

By assigning Closed and Open Hi-Hat voices to both the Pad and Foot Pedal 2,

those voices can be controlled with the Foot Pedal 2 as follows:

• Strike the pad while pressing the Foot Pedal 2, the “Closed” Hi- Hat voice

will sound.

• Strike the pad without pressing the Foot Pedal 2, the “Open” Hi- Hat voice

will sound.

• Press the Foot Pedal 2 without striking the pad, the Hi-Hat “Pedal” voice will

sound.

NOTE:

• Phrase data cannot be transmitted.

• The pan data for each voice is fixed and cannot be changed, regardless of the pad

assignments. For example, if a voice containing a “left” pan setting is assigned to a right

pad, the actual sound will come from the left.

LIMITED 1-YEAR WARRANTY ON

PORTABLE DIGITAL DRUMS

Thank you for selecting a Yamaha product. Yamaha products are designed and manufactured to provide a high level of defect-free

performance. Yamaha Corporation of America (“Yamaha”) is proud of the experience and craftsmanship that goes into each and

every Yamaha product. Yamaha sells its products through a network of reputable, specially authorized dealers and is pleased to offer

you, the Original Owner, the following Limited Warranty, which applies only to products that have been (1) directly purchased from

Yamaha’s authorized dealers in the fifty states of the USA and District of Columbia (the “Warranted Area”) and (2) used exclusively in

the Warranted Area. Yamaha suggests that you read the Limited Warranty thoroughly, and invites you to contact your authorized

Yamaha dealer or Yamaha Customer Service if you have any questions.

Coverage: Yamaha will, at its option, repair or replace the product covered by this warranty if it becomes defective, malfunctions or

otherwise fails to conform with this warranty under normal use and service during the term of this warranty, without charge for labor

or materials. Repairs may be performed using new or refurbished parts that meet or exceed Yamaha specifications for new parts. If

Yamaha elects to replace the product, the replacement may be a reconditioned unit. You will be responsible for any installation or

removal charges and for any initial shipping charges if the product(s) must be shipped for warranty service. However, Yamaha will

pay the return shipping charges to any destination within the USA if the repairs are covered by the warranty. This warranty does not

cover (a) damage, deterioration or malfunction resulting from accident, negligence, misuse, abuse, improper installation or operation

or failure to follow instructions according to the Owner’s Manual for this product; any shipment of the product (claims must be

presented to the carrier); repair or attempted repair by anyone other than Yamaha or an authorized Yamaha Service Center; (b) any

unit which has been altered or on which the serial number has been defaced, modified or removed; (c) normal wear and any periodic

maintenance; (d) deterioration due to perspiration, corrosive atmosphere or other external causes such as extremes in temperature

or humidity; (e) damages attributable to power line surge or related electrical abnormalities, lightning damage or acts of God; or (f)

RFI/EMI (Interference/noise) caused by improper grounding or the improper use of either certified or uncertified equipment, if

applicable or (g) drum sticks. Any evidence of alteration, erasing or forgery of proof-of-purchase documents will cause this warranty

to be void. This warranty covers only the Original Owner and is not transferable.

In Order to Obtain Warranty Service: Warranty service will only be provided for defective products within the Warranted

Area. Contact your local authorized Yamaha dealer who will advise you of the procedures to be followed. If this is not successful,

contact Yamaha at the address, telephone number or website shown below. Yamaha may request that you send the defective product

to a local authorized Yamaha Servicer or authorize return of the defective product to Yamaha for repair. If you are uncertain as to

whether a dealer has been authorized by Yamaha, please contact Yamaha’s Service Department at the number shown below, or

check Yamaha’s website at www.Yamaha.com. Product(s) shipped for service should be packed securely and must be accompanied

by a detailed explanation of the problem(s) requiring service, together with the original or a machine reproduction of the bill of sale or

other dated, proof-of-purchase document describing the product, as evidence of warranty coverage. Should any product submitted

for warranty service be found ineligible therefore, an estimate of repair cost will be furnished and the repair will be accomplished only

if requested by you and upon receipt of payment or acceptable arrangement for payment.

Limitation of Implied Warranties and Exclusion of Damages: ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO

THE APPLICABLE PERIOD OF TIME SET FORTH ABOVE. YAMAHA SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR DAMAGES BASED UPON INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF USE, DAMAGE TO ANY OTHER

EQUIPMENT OR OTHER ITEMS AT THE SITE OF USE OR INTERRUPTION OF PERFORMANCES OR ANY CONSEQUENCES.

YAMAHA’S LIABILITY FOR ANY DEFECTIVE PRODUCT IS LIMITED TO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE PRODUCT, AT

YAMAHA’S OPTION. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE

EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION

MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to

state. This is the only express warranty applicable to the product specified herein; Yamaha neither assumes nor authorizes anyone to

assume for it any other express warranty.
