There are many possibilities when using MIDI, such as:
1. Use an external sequencer to save/load
drum kits, pattern data etc.
2. Use the pads to play external instruments
As the TD-10 is a pad-to-MIDI interface, using external mod-
ules, samplers etc. can expand your potential (p. 122).
3. When using an external sequencer, the TD-
10 is a powerful drum sound module espe-
cially when accessing the Percussion group
for an even wider variety of instruments
(p. 126).
Saving/Loading data
to/from an external
device (Bulk Dump)
■ Saving data
To save data, use the external sequencer as you would when
recording musical data, and perform the following steps on
the TD-10 as shown in the following diagram. Use a MIDI
cable to connect the TD-10’s MIDI OUT jack to the MIDI IN
jack of the external sequencer.
