In order to use this device correctly, please carefully read “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (the Leaflet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY) before use. After reading, keep these instructions at hand for immediate reference.

Introduction

• The TR-06 can operate on batteries or on USB bus power. If you are using batteries, insert four AA batteries, making sure that the batteries are oriented correctly.
• If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and fluid leakage. Make sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are listed in “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (leaflet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY”).
• 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.
• When the batteries run low, the indication “Bt. Lo” appears in the display. Replace the battery as soon as possible.
• The power to this unit will be turned off automatically after a predetermined amount of time has passed since it was last used for playing music, or its buttons or controls were operated (Auto Off function). If you do not want the power to be turned off automatically, disengage the Auto Off function. To restore power, turn the power on again.
  Using the TR-06 in conjunction with the DK-01 Boutique Dock (accessory)
  & For installation/removal/angle adjustment, refer to the DK-01’s Owner’s Manual. * When handling the sound module, such as during angle adjustment or installation, take care not to get your finger caught between a movable part and the body of the unit. If using this unit where children are present, be sure to provide adult supervision and guidance.
  Playing the TR-06 via MIDI or USB
  You can also play the TR-06 via MIDI or USB. For details, refer to “Connecting Your Equipment.”

Connecting Your Equipment

• To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.

G

A Micro USB ( ) port
Use a commercially available USB 2.0 cable (A-microB) to connect this port to your computer. It can be used to transfer USB MIDI and USB audio data. You must install the USB driver when connecting the TR-06 to your computer. Download the USB driver from the Roland website. For details, refer to Readme. htm which is included in the download. &https://www.roland.com/support/

• Do not use a micro USB cable that is designed only for charging a device. Charge-only cables cannot transmit data.

C PHONES jack (Stereo mini) Connect headphones (sold separately) here.

D OUTPUT jack (Stereo mini) Connect this jack to your amp or monitor speakers.

E MIX IN jack (Stereo mini)
This is an audio input jack. The sound of the connected device is output from the OUTPUT jack and the PHONES jack. You can also apply the TR-06’s internal effect to this sound.

MIDI OUT

F MIDI connectors If you connect the TR-06 to another MIDI device using commercially

MIDI device

available MIDI cables, the TR-06 can play in synchronization with the MIDI device.

Turning the TR-06 On/Off

G [POWER] switch This turns the power on/off.

• After you’ve made connections correctly, be sure to turn on the power in the order of the TR-06 first, and then the connected system. Powering-on in the incorrect order may cause malfunctions or damage. When turning the power off, power-off the connected system first, and then the TR-06.
• Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
  Data Backup/Restore
  Backup

1. Connect your computer to the TR-06’s USB port via USB cable.
2. While holding down the [RUN/STOP] button, turn on the power. It takes about one minute to prepare the drive. The STEP [1]­[16] indicators show the progress.
3. Open the “TR-06” drive on your computer. The backup files are located in the “BACKUP” folder of the “TR-06” drive.
4. Copy the backup files into your computer. Copy all of the files that are in the “BACKUP” folder.
5. After copying is completed, eject the USB drive.
Windows 10/8/7 Right-click on the “TR-06” icon and execute “Eject.”
Mac OS Drag the “TR-06” icon to the Trash icon in the Dock.
6. Turn the TR-06 power off.

Restore
1. As described in the procedure for “Backup” Step 1­3, open the “TR-06” drive on your computer. 2. Copy the TR-06 backup files into the “RESTORE” folder of the “TR-06” drive. 3. After copying is completed, eject the USB drive and then press the [TAP] button. 4. After the LEDs have completely stopped blinking, turn off the power.

TRIGGER IN jack
TRIGGER OUT jack TRIGGER OUT [AC] jack

Explanation
Use a mini-plug (mono) cable to connect this to a device that is equipped with a TRIGGER OUT jack (e.g., TR-08). When you insert a plug into this jack, the TR-06 is disconnected from its internal clock, and its step will advance when a trigger pulse is received from this jack. Input from this jack can also be used to execute the Random function or the Note Shift function. Use the menu to specify what is executed.
This outputs a trigger when each instrument is heard.
This outputs a trigger at the timing of ACC, or at the beginning or end of the pattern. You can use the menu to specify the timing at which a trigger is output.

• Use a “mini-plug (mono)” cable to connect the jacks of the TRIGGER section. Do not use a “stereo mini-plug” cable. It will not work correctly.
