You can save the TD-6’s drum kits, songs, general settings,
and more to an external MIDI sequencer.

use the external sequencer as you would when recording
musical data, and perform the following steps on the TD-6 as
shown in the following diagram.

Bulk Dump is one kind of System Exclusive message. Be sure
to use an external MIDI sequencer that is capable of recording
System Exclusive messages. In addition, confirm that the
sequencer is not set to “Do not receive System Exclusive
messages.”

Setting the Device ID (SETUP/MIDI COMMON/DeviceID; p.
101) makes operation more convenient when multiple TD-6’s
are connected.

devices, be sure to read the owner’s manuals for the devices
