Chapter 9. Settings for the Entire TD-12 [SETUP]
 
Chapter  9 
[SETUP]
 
Local Control
 
This is required when you want to trigger sounds in an 
external sound module and/or record your performance on 
an external MIDI sequencer, and NOT use the TD-12’s internal 
sounds. If that is your need, then turn Local Control to “OFF.” 
The trigger signals from the pads go directly to the MIDI 
OUT/THRU connector.
The TD-12’s default mode is with Local Control “ON.”
 
fig.LocalCtrl.e
 
If you make connections and record as shown, with a setting 
of Local Control “ON,” duplicate notes will be re-transmitted 
to the TD-12 and will not be played correctly.
 
ON (DRUM):
 
The performance data from the pad is sent to the drum 
kit part. Normally set to this.
 
ON (PERC):
 
The performance data from the pad is sent to the 
percussion part and drum kits cannot be played. Select 
this only when you record the percussion part with pads.
 
When Local Control is set to “ON (PERC),” the sound 
does not change if you switch drum kits because drum 
kits cannot be played with pads.
 
Device ID
 
The setting described here is necessary only when you wish to 
transmit separate data to two or more TD-12 units at the same 
time. Do not change this setting in any other case. (At the 
factory settings, the device ID is set to “17.”)
 
* If you lose track of the Device ID setting that was used when 
saving data via a bulk dump, it will no longer be possible to 
reload the bulk data that was saved.
 
Example:
 
Suppose that when data was saved via bulk dump (p. 75), the 
TD-12’s Device ID was set to “17.” When re-transmitting this 
data back to the TD-12, it won’t receive if the Device ID is set 
to something other than “17.”

PedalBend CC Max
 
This setting specifies the range of Control Change 
messages used in the Pitch Control function (p. 38). No 
change to the setting is necessary when performing or 
recording with the TD-12 and pads.
 
The Pitch Control function uses the same Control Change 
message as the hi-hat open/close function (factory setting: 
“FOOT (4)”). As set at the factory, Pitch Control uses values 
ranging from 0 to 90 to change the pitch. When a value of 90 is 
received, the pitch changes up to the pitch set in Pedal Bend 
Range. Set PedalBend CC Max to 127 only if you wish to use 
an external MIDI device to change the pitch using values 
ranging from 0 to 127.
 
* There is no need to change the factory settings when recording 
TD-12 performances to an external MIDI device and playing 
back such performances using the external MIDI device.
* When set to “127,” the change in pitch stops at the pitch set in 
Pedal Bend Range, even if you continue to press the hi-hat 
control pedal down completely.
