Settings for Playing the DR-
770 Instruments
If you wish to play the DR-770’s instruments from an
external MIDI device, you must specify the instrument that
will be played by each incoming note number. You can
specify a note number for each instrument of the drum kit.
NOTE
The preset drum kits (1–64) can be modified temporarily, but they will
return to their original settings when you select another drum kit.
1.
Press [DRUM KIT] to make “DRUM KIT” blink.
2.
Use [VALUE*] to select the user drum kit for which you
will specify note numbers.
3.
After selecting the drum kit, press [DRUM KIT] once
again.
4.

instruments of pad bank A will take priority, and the instrument
assigned to the lowest-numbered pad will sound.

here will be transmitted. However, it is not possible to transmit note
