12 - MIDI control of the TM-D1000

Snapshot changes may be carried out from a MIDI 
controller as Program Change messages.

In addition, the two effect units and the four channel 
dynamic processor components of the TM-D1000 
may also be set up to respond to Program Change 
messages, each on their own channel, if desired.

12.1Setting Program Change 

receive channels

1

Press and hold down the

.

For components other then the 

Mixer

, the 

MIDI channel is used for Control Change and 
Program Change messages. The channels set for 
the 

Mixer

 component refer only to Program 

Change messages, not to Control Change mes-
sages. 

Note that there is no Omni setting—a component 
may respond to messages on one channel only or 
none at all.

12.2Enabling and disabling 

parameter changes

Parameter changes of the TM-D1000 can be trans-
mitted over MIDI from a sequencer or sequencing 
program, and used to control the settings. These 
parameter changes may be disabled when either the 
REC and/or the MIX user mode is selected:

1

Press and hold down the 

ENTER

 key, and 

press the 

OPTION

 key.

2

Turn the 

DATA ENTRY

 knob until the bottom 

line of the display shows 

MIDI

, and press 

ENTER

.

3

Turn the 

DATA ENTRY

 knob until the bottom 

line of the display shows 

Control

, and press 

ENTER

4

Use the 

DATA ENTRY

 knob to change 

between 

Yes

 and 

No

. Press 

ENTER

 to con-

firm your selection.

Remember that a setting of 

Yes

 means that the 

Control Change is disabled for this mode.

12.3Recording parameter changes

Parameter changes may be recorded in real time from 
mix moves on the TM-D1000, or produced from any 
other MIDI controller, and edited before being 
replayed by a sequencer.

The MIDI channels used for Control Change mes-
sages are different from those used for Program 
Change messages. Input channels 1 through 16 use 
MIDI channels 1 through 16 respectively. In addi-
tion, channels 9 through 16 “double up” in the fol-
lowing way:

A brief summary of the controller numbers assigned 
to each channel is given here (more details are avail-
able in the Reference Manual):
