A VARIATION
ON
SYSTEM
1
:
TX816
PULS
2
DXS
DX7
#2
OUT
5-3-5—
nmrs-
31.
This
is
also a
TX81
6- plus-two -keyborad
setup,
and
is
suitable for
the keyboardist
who
wishes
to play
2 DXs, perhaps
as part of
two
different
keyboard
stacks.
With
this variation
you merely
add 3 more
MODI
cables connected as follows
(all
connections
made
on
the
rear
panels of the
modules):
Module
1
MIDI
THRU
to
module 2 MIDI
IN
Module
2
MIDI
THRU
to
module
3
MIDI
IN
Module
3
MIDI
THRU
to
module 4 MIDI
IN
Modules
1
to
4
are
switched
to
INDIVIDUAL
The MIDI
OUT
terminals of
DX7
no.1
and
DX7
no.2
are
connected
to
module
1's
INDIVIDUAL MIDI
IN
and
the
COMMON
MIDI
IN
respectively.
The MIDI
control signal
from
DX7
no.1 controls
module
1,
and
is
also
passed
THRU
to control
module
2,
from
where
it
is
passed
THRU
to control
module
3,
from
where
it is
passed
THRU
to control
module
4.
In this
way DAX7
no.l palys
modules
1
thru
4,
while
DX7
no.2
plays
modules
5
thru
8.
You
can
of course,
choose
different
numbers
of
modules
to
be
controlled
by each
keyborad.
You
could,
in fact,
"daisy chain"
all
eight
modules
together
in
the
same manner
as
we
just
connected modules
1
thru
4.
Then
switching
all
eight
modules
to
INDIVIDUAL
allows
them
all
to
be
controlled
by
DX7
no.1
and
switching
them
to
COMMON
allow them
to
be
controlled
by
DX7
no.2.
If
you
did
choose
to
use
a
KX1
instead of
one
of
the DX7's,
this
would mean
that
you could
control
the
total
power
of
the
TX816
while
sitting at
a
"conventional" keyborad,
or
while
leaping
around the stage with the lightweight KX1 remote
keyboard!
It
is
also
easy
to control the
TX816
with even
more
than
two
keyborads, by con-
necting
them
to
the
INDIVIDUAL
MIDI
IN terminals
on
the
rear
panesl
of
the
39
