SYSTEM EXAMPLES
The
TX816
is
an enormously
potent
digital
music
device.
Using
it
as the center of
a
complex
system,
or
simply
controlling
it
with
a single
MIDI
keyboard,
you
will
discover
many new ways
of using
its
sophisticated
features.
We
offer
these system examples
as indications of the
TX81
6's vast potential,
which
will
expand
as
more MIDI
devices
become
available.
NOTE:
If
a
M
IDI
device
is
connected
to
the
TX81
6's
COMMON M
I
DUN,
the
modules must
be switched
to
"COM
MON,
if it
is
connected
a
TF1's
INDIVIDUAL
MIDI
IN,
that
module must
be switcahed
to
"INDIVIDUAL".

1.
The
Basic
System
(see the
SETTING UP
chapter)
is
ideal for editing
and
THE BASIC SYSTEM:
controlling the
TX816
with
a
DX7. With
the
DX7
in
the
SYS
INFO
UNAVAIL
FURTHER
OPTIONS
mode,
it
can be used
to
change
the voices
in
the
TX816
(e.g.,
selecting
DX7
voice
23
will call
up
voice
23 form
the
internal
memory
of
the tX81
6).
However,
with the
DX7
in
SYS
INFO AVAIL
it
will
send
its
own
voice data
to
the
TX81
Edit Buffer,
and
the
LED
Display
will
show
{Cu\
(Current Voice).
In this
way,
you
have
32 more
voices
available.
In fact,
you can have
unlimited voices stored
in
RAM
cartridges,
and
"play"
them
through
theTXSI
6 by
pressing
CARTRI DGE
MEMORY
prior to selecting a voice.
