Using the TD-07 with a Computer or Smartphone App
Using the TD-07 with Computer Software
If the TD-07 is connected to your computer via a USB cable (commercially available), you can transmit and receive MIDI and 
audio data.
*  A USB cable is not included. Use a USB2.0 Hi-Speed cable.
In order to transmit and receive audio as USB AUDIO, you 
must install the USB driver.
The USB driver is software that transfers data between the 
TD-07 and the software such as DAW on your computer.

Specifying the USB Driver
Here’s how to switch between the TD-07’s dedicated USB 
driver and the driver provided by your operating system.
Reference
In “Making System Settings” (p. 24), refer to “USBDrv” and 
make the appropriate settings.
Using the TD-07 with a Smartphone App
You can connect the TD-07 with an app on your smartphone that supports Bluetooth MIDI (such as GarageBand).
As an example, we explain how to make settings for an iPhone.

this, temporarily cancel the device registration, and 
perform the procedure again from step 1.
5. Start the app on your smartphone.
