Changes Are Not Transmitted (Tx PC Sw)
The TD-6 sends a Program Change message to external
devices when the drums kit is switched. If this is “OFF”,
Program Changes will not be transmitted.
The TD-6’s drum kit program numbers are always the same as
the drum kit numbers; this relationship is fixed, and cannot be
changed.
The settings screen does not appear in GM mode.

MIDI Channel Settings for a
Part (MIDI PART)
For each part, you can specify the channel on which the TD-6
will receive and transmit MIDI messages.
At a setting of “1” through “16,” MIDI messages will be
transmitted and received on that channel. When set to “OFF,”
MIDI messages for that part are not transmitted.
Drum kit parts and percussion parts can be overlaid and set to
“CH 10.” Make the “CH10Priorty (Channel 10 Priority)”
setting to determine whether the drum kit part instrument or
percussion part instrument is to be sounded when MIDI
messages are received (SETUP/MIDI COMMON/
CH10Priorty; p. 99).
In GM mode (p. 100), the part’s channel is predetermined, and
thus cannot be changed.
