What is “ELCajon Mic Processor”

The Roland EC-10M ELCajon Mic Processor is a new concept in percussion sound modules; it uses

Roland’s proprietarily developed mic sensor and sound-generating technology to pick up and

amplify the acoustic sound of your cajon, and allows you to layer electronic sounds onto it.

Main features

5 While taking advantage of the resonance of the cajon’s original

sound, you can additionally layer a wide variety of electronic sounds.

5 You can switch between two dierent electronic sounds according

to the pitch of the sound that enters the mic.

5 You can use a simple loop play function to perform along with a

rhythm pattern played by electronic sounds.

5 A high-performance clip-type condenser mic that can be installed

directly on the cajon is included.

5 The volume balance between the mic sound and the electronic

sound can be adjusted by the performer.

5 Compressor and enhancer eects specically for the mic are

provided, improving the loudness and denition of the sound.

Panel Descriptions

Top panel

9 MIC

A [COMPRESSOR] knob

Adjusts the loudness of the mic.

Moving the knob toward the

right increases the loudness and

strengthens the attack.

B [VOLUME] knob

Adjusts the volume of the mic.

C PEAK indicator

This indicator is lit when the mic input level reaches the peak. Adjust the mic gain so that the

PEAK indicator does not light.

9 ELECTRONIC

D [THRESHOLD] knob

Species the input level that triggers the electronic layer sound. Turning the knob toward the

right increases the strike strength that is needed to trigger the electronic layer sound.

E [VOLUME] knob

Adjusts the volume of the electronic layer sound.

F [TRIGGER] indicator

This is it lit when the electronic layer sound is produced.

G [KIT No.] indicator

Indicates the selected kit number (1–9, 0, A–F).

H [POWER] switch

Turns the power on/o.

Long-press this switch to turn the power o.

I [MODE SELECT] button

Switches the mode of the foot buttons [A] J / [B] K.

Mode Button status Explanation

Kit shift mode (the

setting when you turn

on the power)

Unlit Use the foot buttons [A] / [B] to switch kits.

Pad mode Lit Play pad [A] / pad [B].

Loop mode Blinking The loop function is used. For details, refer to “About the Loop

function”.

Side panel (Right)

A MIC/MIX OUTPUT jack

If a cable is connected to the ELECTRONIC

jack, the sound of the mic is output by

itself from this jack

If a cable is not connected to the

ELECTRONIC jack, the sound of the mic

and the sound of the electronic layer are

output from this jack.

B ELECTRONIC OUTPUT jack

The electronic layer sounds are output from this jack.

C DC IN jack

Connect the included AC adaptor here.

* We recommend that you keep batteries installed in the unit even though you’ll be powering

it with the AC adaptor. That way, you’ll be able to continue a performance even if the cord of

the AC adaptor gets accidentally disconnected from the unit.

* To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn o all

the units before making any connections.

Side panel (Left)

A TRIGGER IN jack (PAD A/B)

Connect an external kick trigger pad (sold

separately: KD-7, KT-9, KT-10) to this jack.

You can play the two dierent electronic

layer sounds assigned to pad [A] and pad

[B].

* You can use a stereo split cable (sold

separately: PCS-31L) to connect up to two

kick trigger pads to this unit.

B MIC IN jack

Connect the included clip mic to this jack.

C [MIC GAIN] knob

Adjusts the gain of the mic.

D [ENHANCE ON/OFF] switch

Switches the enhance eect that is applied to the sound of the mic. If this is on, the mic sound

is given greater denition. This is eective when you want a crisper sound.

Bottom panel

A Battery case

The EC-10M operates using

batteries or the included AC adaptor.

If using the unit on batteries, install

four AAA batteries, taking care to

orient the batteries correctly.

* 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.

* The battery life is approximately

5 hours for typical performance

use. When the batteries run low,

“L” blinks in the KIT No. indicator.

Replace the battery as soon as

possible.

* If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and uid 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” (leaet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY”).

B Block diagram

This diagram shows the signal ow of the EC-10M.

Clip mic

A Clip open/close knob

Opens/closes the clip.

B Cable hook

Secures the cable of the clip mic.

Use

1. Connect the EC-10M to your amp or PA mixer.

2. Connect the included clip mic to the MIC IN jack.

3. Attach the clip mic to your cajon.

As shown in the illustration,

clip the mic onto the bottom

(6 o’clock position) of the

sound hole located on the

back of the cajon, so that the

mic is inside (with the Roland

logo facing outward). Use the

cable hook to manage the

cable so that it does not strike

the cajon.

* Depending on the shape

of the sound hole, it might

not be possible to attach

the mic at the 6 o’clock position; if so, it is ok to attach the mic at some other position

(such as 9 o’clock).

4. Place the EC-10M by your foot.

Place the EC-10M where you can control it with one

foot.

5. Turn on the power.

* Before turning the unit on/o, always be sure to turn

the volume down. Even with the volume turned down,

you might hear some sound when switching the unit

on/o. However, this is normal and does not indicate a

malfunction.

6. Use the [MIC GAIN] knob to adjust the mic gain.

Start with the gain at the maximum setting, and

gradually lower it until the PEAK indicator does not

light when you strike the cajon strongly.

* If the sound of the mic seems to be distorted, lower the

[MIC GAIN] knob.

7. Use the [VOLUME] knobs (MIC, ELECTRONIC) to adjust the volume..

If you want to emphasize the sound of the cajon itself, it

is eective to lower the ELECTRONIC volume and raise

the MIC volume.

8. Use the [THRESHOLD] knob to adjust the sensitivity at which the electronic layer sound is

triggered.

If this setting is low, the electronic layer sound is

triggered even by a soft strike. As this setting is raised,

the electronic layer sound is triggered only by a strong

strike.

* If the electronic sound is inadvertently triggered by

other sounds picked up by the mic when you’re not playing the cajon, raise the threshold

setting so that only the sound is triggered only when you want it to be triggered.

9. Use foot buttons [A] / [B] to switch kits.

For details on each kit, refer to “Kit List”.

About the Loop function

The EC-10M lets you record a phrase of electronic layer sounds and play it back immediately as

a loop. This lets you perform on the cajon accompanied by the playback of the electronic layer

sound loop (shaker, tambourine, bass drum, or other sound eect).

Here’s how to record and play back.

1. Select the kit containing the electronic sound that you want to record.

2. While playing the cajon or the kick trigger, adjust the volume balance of the electronic

layer sound.

3. Use the [MODE SELECT] button to select loop mode.

4. Press the foot button [A] to delete any previously recorded content.

5. Press the foot button [B] to enter the record-standby state.

The foot button [B] is lit red.

6. When you start performing, recording starts automatically.

During recording, the foot button [B] blinks red.

7. At the moment that you want recording to end, press the foot button [B].

The performance data from when you start recording until you press the foot button [B] is

automatically played back as a loop. If recorded performance data exists, the foot button [B] is

lit green.

8. To stop playback, press the foot button [B] once again.

* You can’t perform electronic layer sounds during loop playback. You can perform only using

the cajon itself and the sound of the mic.

Performance Advice

5 If you want to emphasize the attack of the mic sound, adjust the compressor setting upward.

5 Placing muting material inside the cajon will reduce unwanted resonance, allowing you to

produce a sharper and tighter sound.

5 The way in which the EC-10M’s electronic layer sounds (high/low) are dierentiated will

vary depending on the character of the sound that enters the mic. If you want to accurately

reproduce these distinctions, you’ll need to be aware of which area of your cajon must be

struck to produce dierent sounds.

5 You can’t perform the electronic layer sounds while using loop playback. You can only perform

using the sound of the cajon itself and the sound of the mic.
