Chapter 8 Features Using MIDI and Setting Examples

About Transmitting/Receiving

Program Changes

Drum Kit

The drum kit program numbers are always the same as the

drum kit numbers; this relationship is fixed, and cannot be

changed.

Percussion Set

Percussion set program numbers are predetermined. Refer to

the “Preset Percussion Set List” (p. 124).

Backing Part (Part 1–4) Instruments

The instrument program numbers, and controller numbers 0

and 32 are fixed. Refer to the “Backing Instrument List” (p.

126).

If tone changes are made on an external MIDI device, the TD-

6’s instruments are switched, but the change is not recorded

by the sequencer.

Triggering an External Sound

Device by Playing the TD-6

This sets the TD-6 so that the external MIDI sound module is

sounded when the pads are struck.

With this setting, both the TD-6 and the external sound

module can play simultaneously.

1. Use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT

connector of the TD-6 to the MIDI IN connector

of the external MIDI device.

2. Match the MIDI channel to be used for

transmitting data from the TD-6 and the MIDI

channel that the external MIDI device will use

for receiving the data.

(SETUP/MIDI PART/CH; p. 102)

3. Specify the note number to be transmitted from

each pad. (KIT/CONTROL/Note No.; p. 66)

Set this to the note number of the sound that you wish to

play on the external MIDI sound module or sampler.

4. Set the MIDI Gate Time.

(KIT/CONTROL/Gate Time; p. 67)

You can use different pad note number and gate time

settings in each drum kit.
