How to Set Up the SPD-20 for Sequencing
If you wish to record and playback an SPD-20 performance on a MIDI sequencer or
computer, make the following settings. (these are the factory settings.)
• For each pad you wish to use, set TX CH (p. 61) to the same channel as the Basic Channel.
• For each pad you wish to use, set Note # (p. 62) for the pads so that they don’t overlap.
• For each pad you wish to use, set CURVE (p. 64) to “Lnr”.
• For each pad you wish to use, set SENS (p. 64) to 8.
If you wish to record and playback Patch changes made during a performance, you will
need to make the following settings as well.
• For only one pad, set a Program Number that matches the Patch number (p. 65).
If you wish to record and playback the pedal controller hi-hat sound (H01–H17) layered
with another instrument, following setting will be necessary.
• Assign a hi-hat cymbal for pedal control instrument (H01–H17) to pad bank A.
If you assign these instruments to pad bank B, recording will be correct, but since the SPD-20 ignores
incoming note messages for pad bank B, the Pedal hi-hat will not be heard during playback.
