Roland owner manual Using the TD-6V As a General Midi Sound Module

Using the TD-6V As a General MIDI Sound Module

The TD-6V features GM mode, allowing it to play back GM scores (music data for GM sound generators) from an External Sequencer. The TD-6V has a function that lets you mute only the drum sounds in GM mode, making this a very useful feature. For details, refer to “Switch to the GM (General MIDI) Mode (GM Mode)” (p. 99) and “MIDI Messages Stop Function for Specific Parts in GM (General MIDI) Mode (GM PART)” (p. 102).

The TD-6V can also be used as a sound module along with MIDI keyboards and MIDI sequencers (p. 107).

When Using the TD-6V as a GM Sound Module (p. 99)

•The TD-6V functions as a 16-part multi-timbre sound module.

•The internal sequencer is disabled.

•Drum kit parts cannot be played using MIDI messages sent from an external device. They can be played only by playing pads connected to the TD-6V.
