Strike the pad you wish to set.
5
Select the note number (0–127) by using NOTE # in the MIDI parameter
group.
6
If you wish to make settings for other pads, repeat steps 4–5.
7
Press [EDIT] to return to the Play mode.
If you have specied the same Note Number for two or more pads, each pad will transmit the same
Note Number. However, if a note message of that number is received, only one Instrument assigned
will sound.
MEMO
Remember that three note numbers are assigned to each Hi-Hat Cymbal for pedal control sound
(PEDAL_HH 1–PEDAL_HH 17). If even one of these three note numbers coincides with a Note Number
assigned to another pad, it will sound also. For example, if Note Number 38 has been assigned to the
SNARE 1 sound for pad number 1, and Note Number 42 has been assigned to the PEDAL_HH 1 sound
for Pad number 2, the closed PEDAL_HH 1 sound will also be heard.
MEMO
Now when the specied Note Number is received from the external device, you will be
able to check the sound.
By switching the Layer on/o, the way of note message processing will be changed;
Layer O: Each of the Note Numbers set to pad banks A and B are transmitted when received.
Layer On: When received, the Note Number in pad bank B is ignored, while the Note Number in pad
bank A is played.
MEMO
Using External MIDI Devices to Play the Internal Sound Generator
1
Set the MIDI Channel for the external MIDI device to match the MIDI
Channel of the SPD-20X. If you intended to send Program Change and
Control Change from an external MIDI device, set them to channel 10.
2
If necessary, use PATCH/VALUE [-] or [+] to select a Patch.
3
When you play the external MIDI device, the SPD-20X will sound.
When a note message is received from the external MIDI device, the Instrument selected for the
pad set to the corresponding Note Number in the current patch will sound.
If a Program Change message is received on the Channel 10, the corresponding Patch (1–99) will be
selected. (Only in the Play mode.) The SPD-20X will not respond to incoming Program Numbers 100–
128 for patch changes.
