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.
Anchor the power cord, using the cord hook (see diagram). This prevents the plug from being pulled out accidently, and
reduces stress to the jack itself.

Make sure the volume controls on the HandSonic 10, and any connected devices are set to “0.” Then turn
on the device connected to the MIX IN Jack. Turn on the HandSonic 10’s power switch. As there is a built-in
protection circuit, it will take a few seconds before you see the kit name appear in the display. Until that
time, Do NOT touch any pad, or use the D BEAM. Turn on the device connected to the output jacks. Then
adjust the respective volume settings.
When turning the HandSonic off, turn down all respective volumes before turning off the power.

Basic Editing
In order to understand the possibilities of the various editing functions, there are a few basic points you must
take into consideration. These will help save you time, and avoid frustration whether this is your first
electronic musical instrument or not. Any changes you make are automatically registered as there is no
“write” function. Taking that into consideration, we recommend that you explore the editing process first by
using one of the 5 preset kits shown here. The reason we suggest this is because these kits are pre-set. You
can edit them temporarily, but once you change the kit, they automatically return to their factory settings.

tempo will increase 1 BPM on every beat.
While the metronome is playing, you’ll also notice in the left side of the display, 90→200.
This is showing you the MINIMUM TEMPO and MAXIMUM TEMPO. This means that the metronome will
start playing at 90 BPM, increase to 200 BPM, and then go back down to 90 BPM.
You can adjust this by pressing the [ ] once, where you will see <Min Tempo> in the display. Use the [+]/
[-] buttons or the Control knob to set your desired tempo. Push the [ ] once more and you see <Max
Tempo>.
Also, while the metronome is playing, you can set the Max Tempo by pushing the [-], and you will see <set

BPM.
Tap Tempo
1. Press the [COACH] button and use the [ ] cursor until you see
<TAP TEMPO>.
Here, you can tap any pad, or external trigger to set the Tempo.
This is useful as a training exercise, because as you tap the pads, you can see the tempo indicated in the
display. Very good for tempo training.
You can adjust the tempo(min tempo) when any of the coach mode functions appears in the display, or while
the metronome is running with the Control knob or using the [+]/[-] buttons. (except for Auto Up/Down)

HEAR A SOUND?
For info on the Control Knob functions, see page 8. For
info on UNDO, see page 23. For info on recalling any
KIT’s original factory settings, see page 27.
Depending on the EFFECT assigned to a specific kit, and
the length or decay, of the last sound played, this may
occur. If you play a cymbal sound, and then change the kit
while you can still hear that sound, then the effects
assigned to the new kit will be applied to that last sound.

When using foot switches, if you hear the sound when you
release your foot from it, this means you need to switch the
