MIDI Settings
This is required when you want to trigger sounds in an
external sound module and/or record your performance on
an external MIDI sequencer, and NOT use the TD-3’s internal
sounds. If that is your need, then turn Local Control to “OFF.”
The trigger signals from the pads go directly to the MIDI OUT.
See diagram below.
The TD-3’s default mode is with Local Control “ON.”
fig.midi-004.e
If you make connections and record as shown, with a
setting of Local Control On, MIDI note “feedback” will
occur and the TD-3 will not sound right.
1.
Hold down [INST] and turn the TD-3’s power on.
“Local Control oFF” appears in the scroll display, and
Local Control is switched off.
Hitting the pads creates no sound from the TD-3.
(the trigger indicators do light up.)
2.
If you turn the power off, Local Control will be
set to ON when the power is turned on again.
The pads function normally, triggering the TD-3’s
internal sounds.
* Local Control is always switched on when the power is turned
on without [INST] being pressed.
You can save all of the TD-3’s drum kits, general settings, and
more to an external MIDI sequencer.
Use the external sequencer as you would when recording
musical data, following steps on the TD-3 as shown below.
1.
Connect the TD-3’s MIDI OUT connector with a
MIDI cable to the MIDI IN connector of the
external sequencer.

2.
While holding down [DRUM KIT], turn the TD-
3’s power on.
“bulk duMP” appears in the scroll display, then “ ”
is displayed, and [DRUM KIT] flashes.
3.
Press [+] or [-] to select the content to be saved.
