Hi-Hat Control Pedal Data
Reduction (Pedal Data Thin)
This function allows you to prevent an excessive amount of
data from being transmitted from the pedal to the internal
sequencer or via the MIDI OUT.
When you want to make smooth changes in the pitch control
with the Hi-Hat control Pedal, set this to "1" or "OFF."
The settings screen does not appear in GM mode.

OFF:
Data sent from the pedal is not reduced.
1:
This reduces the data sent from the pedal. Usually, "1" is
selected.

This reduces the data sent from the pedal. This setting results
in even less data than when "1" is selected.
Chapter 7 Making the MIDI Settings (SETUP/MIDI, BULK DUMP)
Switch to the GM (General MIDI)
Mode (GM Mode)
The TD-6V features a GM mode—a convenient way to play
back GM score data (music files for General MIDI sound
module).
For more on the GM system, refer to p. 13.
To ensure proper playback of GM scores, set the TD-6V to GM
mode.
Setting this to "ON" initializes the TD-6V's internal sound
generator for use with GM, while the GM System percussion
set (Standard Set) is assigned to Part 10, and Piano 1 is
assigned to all other parts.
The TD-6V switches to GM mode at the following times.
• When Switching to GM Mode
• When it receives a GM System On message from an
external MIDI device
• When the TD-6V has received a GM System On message
as the result of playing back a song containing a GM
System On message on an external MIDI device
To mute the performance of a specific part in GM mode, you
can make the appropriate setting for "GM PART" (SETUP/
GM PART/Part Rx Sw; p. 102).
• You cannot use the TD-6V to make changes to the part
settings. Change the setting by sending the Control
Change Bank Select (CC0#, CC32#) and Program Change
(PC) from the external MIDI device.
• When the power is turned on, "GM Mode" is ordinarily
set to "OFF."
• Drum kit parts cannot be played using MIDI messages
sent from an external device. They can be played only by
playing pads connected to the TD-6V.
• Sequencers cannot be used in GM mode. The [SONG],
[PLAY ], [STOP
MUTE] buttons are disabled. Also, [SHIFT] + [CLICK
(TEMPO)] cannot be used.
• Some parameters cannot be set in GM mode. For more
detailed information, refer to "Parameter List" (p. 130).
• Program changes in GM mode are predetermined, and
thus cannot be changed. Use the program changes in the
"Preset Percussion Set List" (p. 124) and "Backing
Instrument List" (p. 126).
• The pan of the percussion set is based on how the set
sounds from where the drums are played. Be aware that
the panning recommended with General MIDI is
reversed.
