(2) About Switching Percussion Sets
On the TD-8/6, percussion sets are set for each pattern or song, and cannot
be set for individual drum kits.
Additionally, each time you select a pattern or a song, the percussion set
changes into the one for that pattern or song. Therefore, it is necessary to
select the percussion set once again after playing back a pattern or a song.
There are three ways to select a percussion set.
• Select a percussion set in the TD-8/6 sequencer’s part settings screen.
(“Making the Setting for the Percussion Set” in the TD-8 Owner’s
Manual (p. 104); “Choosing Percussion Set and Instruments” in the
TD-6 Owner’s Manual (p. 89))
• Set a percussion set for a blank TD-8/6 pattern or song percussion
part, then select the pattern or song. (“Using the TD-8 As a Sound
Module” in the TD-8 Owner’s Manual (p. 156), “Using the TD-6 As a
Sound Module” in the TD-6 Owner’s Manual (p. 107))
• Connect a pad or foot switch to the TMC-6 and transmit a Program
Change with the MIDI channel and program number for the TD-8/6
percussion set.
For more on setting the TMC-6’s foot switch, refer to "Connecting a
Foot Switch" (p. 20); for more on setting Program Changes, refer to the
"Parameter List" (p. 24).
For more on the TD-8/6 percussion set program numbers, refer to the
“Preset Percussion Set List” in the TD-8/6 Owner’s Manual.
(3) Limitations of Drum Kits Played
When playing the TD-8 with the TMC-6’s pads, if you select a User
percussion set, then you can select the instrument you want to play from the
entire group of drum instruments, just as you can with the TD-10 (“Making
the Settings for the Percussion Set” in the TD-8 Owner’s Manual (p. 104)).
The TD-6 has no User percussion sets, so you can only play the drum
instruments set in the TD-6’s Preset percussion sets with the TMC-6’s pads.
(4) Choke Play
When playing the TD-8/6’s percussion sets with the TMC-6’s pads, you
cannot perform the choke play.
The TD-8/6’s instruments
can only be played using
Note Numbers 18–96.
In the TD-8/6 sequencer’s
Part settings screen, when
a Program Change is
received, the name of the
percussion set won’t
change, due to the
specifications of the sound
generator. However,
internally, the switch to
the different percussion set
will actually have been
made.
While setting the
instruments of TD-8
percussion set, you cannot
move the cursor by
striking pads.
