INTERNAL:
The TD-20’s tempo setting will be used for playback/
recording. When shipped from the factory, this setting is
selected.
EXTERNAL:
The TD-20’s sequencer will operate in accordance with
tempo data (MIDI Clock) from the external device.
AUTO:
This is a convenient setting that combines features of both
the INTERNAL and EXTERNAL settings. When no
synchronization signal is being received, the TD-20’s
tempo setting will be used for playback/recording. When
a synchronization signal is being received from an
external device, the TD-20 will sync to that signal.
REMOTE:
The TD-20 will obey start/pause/stop messages from an
external device, but will playback according to its own
tempo setting.
Synchronizing to the playback of an
external sequencer
In this case, the TD-20 will be the slave and an external
sequencer will be master.
1.
Connect the TD-20’s MIDI IN connector with a
MIDI cable to the MIDI OUT connector of the
external sequencer.
2.
Set Sync Mode to “EXTERNAL.”
