Chapter [PLAY]

The TD-20’s tempo setting will be used for playback/

INTERNAL:

 

 

 

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.”

3.Begin playback on the external sequencer.

Synchronized playback will begin.
