Controlling the SD-80 via MIDI
■
Switching sounds
You can switch the sound (instrument) for each of the SD-80’s parts by transmitting MIDI messages from
sequencer software running on your computer.
Sounds are specified by their
Variation number
and
Instrument number
, but the way in which these
numbers are displayed may differ depending on your software. On the SD-80, variation numbers start
from 0, and instrument numbers start from 1.
The variation number corresponds to the MIDI bank number, and the instrument number corresponds to
the MIDI program number.

How to read the instrument list
The sounds (instruments) built into the SD-80 are listed in the instrument list provided for each sound
generator mode.
"Instrument list (GM2 / Native mode)"
"Instrument list (XGlite mode)"
Two numbers are used to specify a sound; the
Instrument number
and the
Variation number
. Sounds
whose variation number is 000 are “
capita
l” sounds, and sounds whose variation number is other than
000 are “
variation
” sounds.
Each instrument list shows the
instrument number
,
variation number
, and the
name of the sound
.
