frequency ranges, allowing their balance to be adjusted. The

usable with instruments assigned to the AUX1, 2 jacks), and
a 3-band equalizer for the total sound of the TD-10.

instruments to communicate. Virtually all electronic musical
instruments sold today support MIDI, allowing those instru-

TD-10 can also play external sound modules or samplers as
well via MIDI.

These connectors are used to expand the TD-10’s functionali-
ty, such as synchronizing (the tempo) with other devices, to
record performances, and to store data. Use a MIDI cable to
connect other MIDI-compatible instruments or devices to the
TD-10. MIDI connectors are used ONLY if you are using an
external MIDI device.
