CARING FOR YOUR TITAN 20 ELECTRONIC DRUM SET LOCATION
  • Keep the drum kit away from direct sunlight, high temperature sources, and excessive humidity to prevent deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage

POWER SUPPLY

  • Turn the power switch OFF when the Titan 20 is not in use.
  • The AC adapter should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the Titan 20 is not to be used for an extended period of time.
  • Avoid plugging the AC adapter into AC outlet that is also powering high-consumption appliances such as electric heaters or televisions. Also avoid using multi-plug adapters, since these can reduce sound quality, cause operation errors, and result in possible damage.
  • To avoid damaging the unit, turn the Titan 20 and all related devices OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting cables.

HANDLING AND TRANSPORT

  • Never apply excessive force to controls, connectors, and other parts.
  • Unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly. Do not pull on the cable.
  • Disconnect all cables before moving the module.
  • Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the module can result in scratches and more serious damage.

CLEANING

  • Clean the module with a dry, soft cloth.
  • A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt.
  • Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.
  • To avoid discoloration, do not place vinyl objects on top of module.

ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE

  • The module contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move the Titan 20 further away from the affected equipment.

SERVICE AND MODIFICATION

  • There are no user serviceable parts in the drum module.
  • Do not attempt to open the sound module or make any change in the circuits or parts of the unit. This would void the warranty.

ASSEMBLING YOUR KIT

STEP 1 – DRUM RACK
The Drum rack will be partially assembled in the box.
Remove the drum rack components from the box. The rack is in three components:
One component is shaped like an “h”, and the two vertical posts have feet on the bottom. This is the right side of the rack. The taller post should be on the inside edge.
The second component looks the same, but it has an additional arm attached. This is the left side of the rack. Again, the tall post (with two arms attached) faces the inside of the rack.
Finally, there is one long bar with three clamps attached. This is the center of the rack, and it joins the other two together.
Insert the long bar between the two other components. The clamps on this bar should face away from the drummer. Tighten the connecting clamps until the rack is stable.

STEP 2 – ATTACH CYMBAL ARMS
Insert each cymbal arm into the rack clamp. Insert (Long) hi-hat arm on the left-side rack arm’s cymbal clamp. Slide the hi-hat arm through the plastic sleeve to adjust the height.

STEP 3 – ATTACH CYMBAL PADS
Place the cymbal pads on the tilter assemblies. Put the felt on next, then screw down the cymbal nut to attach.

STEP 4 – ATTACH DRUM MODULE
Loosen the wing screw on the module mount located on the crossbar. Place the drum module into the drum clamp. Tighten the wing screw to secure the module.

STEP 5 – POSITION PEDALS & ATTACH DRUM PADS
Place the hi-hat pedal on the floor and to the left, as illustrated below. Place the bass pedal on the floor in the center of the rack as illustrated.
Loosen the wing screws on the drum mount clamps then place the tom pads into the mounts and tighten the wing screws.
Place the L-rod into the clamp on the short arm. Insert this L-rod into the snare drum pad and tighten the wing nut on the bottom.SIMMONS-TITAN-20
-Electronic-Drum-Kit-11 STEP 6 – CONNECT MODULE TO THE PADS
Using the provided cables, connect the ¼” jacks to the corresponding drum pads, cymbal pads and kick pad.
(Cables are marked accordingly, see diagram on next page). The 25-pin connection will attach to the port on the bottom of the sound module. Use the included hook-and-loop cable strips to retain cables to the rack.

NOTE: The voice of the hi-hat pad is controlled by the hi-hat pedal. Similar to a real drum kit, the hi-hat pad functions as an ‘open hi-hat’ when the pedal is released. When the pedal is pressed down, it functions as a ‘closed hi-hat’.

CONNECTIONS

CONNECTING THE PADS

CAUTION!
To prevent electric shock and damage to the device, make sure the power is switched OFF on the sound module and all related devices before making any connection.

PRACTICE MODE
Press and hold SONG to enter Practice Mode. Practice mode has the goal of making you a more accurate drummer. It plays backing tracks while you play along while measuring your timing accuracy on the quarter note (usually kick and snare.)
When in Practice Mode, the LED display shows an indication of whether you are playing on, before, or after the beat. See the guide below.
If your playing is slightly late (behind the beat) you might see “- ]-“ in the display. If your playing was ahead of the beat (early), you might see “-[ -“. The display is only active for the quarter note downbeat on kick and snare. If you are 100% accurate for that quarter-note beat timing, you will see “-[ ]-“ in the display each time. Playing at 99% might show indicators to the left, and 101% would show indicators to the right.
As the difficulty moves up, you need to be even more accurate. Perhaps 99.5% accuracy would be enough to register “slightly early” instead of “on time.”

SIMMONS-TITAN-20-Electronic-Drum-Kit-31

To use Practice Mode:

  1. Press and hold the SONG button to enter practice mode. The display will briefly read “Pct.”
  2. Press + or – to select one of the Practice songs: P01, P02, or P03. Press Edit to change other settings.
  3. Press Play. There will be a 1-bar intro that plays the click. Then the accompaniment song begins and it starts listening for your playing. Practice Mode listens only on the quarter note beat. Each beat is scored using the Practice Meter described above.
  4. When finished, press the Play button again. The final percentage score is shown on the display: “92” means 92% accurate.

When in Practice Mode, press EDIT to select and then edit one of the following settings:

“dIf”: Difficulty
This setting decreases the timing range that is acceptable for being played “on time.” 1 is the easiest mode where 3 is the most difficult. You need to be very precise to get 100% accuracy in difficulty level 3.

“tps”: Tempo Shift
When this is switched on, the tempo will accelerate in the fourth bar of the cycle, then the tempo will be +5 bpm for the next three bars. Then it will accelerate again, landing on another tempo that is +5 bpm for the next three bars. The cycle goes: regular tempo, +5, +5, -5, -5 (regular tempo), -5, -5, +5, then repeats.
“typ”: Type

There are 6 practice modes:

  1. Click: Play along with the band and the click.
  2. No Clik: Play along with the band but no click
  3. NoClik3/1: Play along with the song. The click will play for three bars, then the click and band will be silent for one bar. (See figure below)
  4. NoClik1/1: The click will play for one bar, then the click and band will be silent for one bar
  5. NoClik1/3B: The backing track and click will play for one bar, then the click and band will be silent for one bar. On bar three, only the bass part will come back. Then it will be silent for one more bar, then repeat to the beginning.
  6. NoClik1/3: The band and click play for 1 bar. Then there are three bars of silence, then it repeats.

Press the Mix button in practice mode to change the balance between your drums and the “band” backing you up. The works the same as Song mode, see previous section for details.

SIMMONS-TITAN-20-Electronic-Drum-Kit-32

SETUP MODE
The Setup mode is for functions of the module that are common to each kit such as trigger setup for the pads and MIDI settings.

  1. Press the SETUP button until you see the parameter you wish to change. See below for a list of parameters and their definition.
  2. Strike the drum pad you want to edit to view the setting currently assigned
  3. Press the [ – ] / [ + ] buttons to change the parameter setting.

If you want to return to factory settings, perform a Factory Reset on your drum module. (See page 20)

SETUP PARAMETER DEFINITIONS

“thr”: Threshold
This setting allows a trigger signal to be received only when the pad is struck harder than a specified force. This can be used to prevent a pad from sounding in response to peripheral vibrations from another pad.

“Cur”: Trigger Curve
This setting allows you to control the relation between the velocity (striking force) and changes in volume (the dynamic curve.) Adjust this curve until the response feels as natural as possible. If you feel like you need to hit the pads too hard to make a sound, try setting the curve to “Esy” (easy). The values are: “nor” = normal, “dyn” = dynamic, “Esy” = easy,
“Fid” = fixed.

“r-C”: Retrigger Cancel
Retrigger Cancel prevents retriggering from occurring. Although setting this to a high value prevents retriggering, it then becomes easy for sounds to be omitted when the drums is played fast (like during a drum roll). Set this to
the lowest value possible while still ensuring there are no repeated hits or double-triggers.

“tAL”: Pad Crosstalk
When two pads are mounted on the same stand, the vibration produced by hitting one pad may trigger the sound from another pad unintentionally, this is called crosstalk. You can avoid this problem by adjusting Crosstalk on the pad that is sounding inadvertently. If the value is set too high, then when two pads are played simultaneously, the one that is struck less forcefully will not sound. Setting the value too low may result in crosstalk.

“SEn”: Pad Sensitivity
This control changes the input level of the trigger. Turn this level lower, and it will take more force to play the drum at its highest dynamic. Turn it higher, and it will take less force to play the highest dynamic.

“not”: MIDI Note
When using the Titan 20 with MIDI synths or software, each pad you hit sends a MIDI note message. The default MIDI note numbers are shown in the chart to the right. However, you may have software with a different arrangement of MIDI notes. To change the note number the module sends when you play a pad, select this parameter, hit a pad, then use the + and – buttons to change the new note number.

“LoC”: MIDI Local Control.
If this parameter is changed to off, playing the pads won’t trigger sounds in the module. Only the MIDI input triggers these sounds. This may be useful if recording the kit using DAW software, so that sounds aren’t triggered twice.

“bLE”: Bluetooth Enable
The default is On. The Titan 20 will be available for Bluetooth Audio or MIDI connections from any device. To disable this, set Bluetooth Enable to Off.

SETUP MODE

FACTORY RESET
There may be occasions where you want the module to return to the factory settings. This function will return the module back to factory setup.

  1. Power off the module.
  2. Press and hold the – and + buttons while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button. The module display will read “rSt” during startup.

BLUETOOTH
The Titan 20 works with both Bluetooth MIDI and Audio. Bluetooth MIDI is often used for apps, like the Simmons app for iOS. Bluetooth Audio allows you to play music from your phone or tablet into the Titan 20, and that sound will come through the line outputs and headphone outputs. The Titan 20 module is always listening for a Bluetooth connection, simply use your phone or tablet to connect. When a Bluetooth connection is active, the Bluetooth LED on the front panel will turn on. Bluetooth can be disabled in the module. (See page 19)
NOTE: Because the low bandwidth in Bluetooth, you can only use Bluetooth Audio or Bluetooth MIDI – not both at once. If you need both MIDI and Audio connections, you need to use a USB connection with your device.

BLUETOOTH WIRELESS MIDI
The Titan 20 includes Bluetooth wireless MIDI for connection to apps like the Simmons App for iOS. To connect the drum module to your tablet or smartphone, open the Bluetooth MIDI settings in your app and select the Titan 20 MIDI. The front-panel Bluetooth LED should light up.

BLUETOOTH WIRELESS AUDIO
The Titan 20 can also operate as a Bluetooth Audio receiver. To send sound through the module’s line out and headphone out, simply choose the Titan 20 device from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. Again, the Bluetooth LED on the front panel will light when a Bluetooth connection is active.
NOTE: The Titan 20 can’t act as a Bluetooth Audio Trans-mitter to Bluetooth wireless speakers or headphones. The reason is that the latency delay is too long on headphones like these, so you would hear a noticeable delay between hitting the pad and hearing a sound.
