Local Control
This is required when you want to trigger sounds in an
external sound module and/or record your performance on
an external MIDI sequencer, and NOT use the TD-20's internal
sounds. If that is your need, then turn Local Control to "OFF."
The trigger signals from the pads go directly to the MIDI
OUT/THRU connector.
The TD-20's default mode is with Local Control "ON."

Internal Sound Generator
If you make connections and record as shown, with a setting
of Local Control "ON," duplicate notes will be re-transmitted
to the TD-20 and will not be played correctly.
ON (DRUM):
The performance data from the pad is sent to the drum
kit part. Normally set to this.
ON (PERC):
The performance data from the pad is sent to the
percussion part and drum kits cannot be played. Select
this only when you record the percussion part with pads.
When Local Control is set to "ON (PERC)," the sound
does not change if you switch drum kits because drum
kits cannot be played with pads.

Chapter 10. Settings for the Entire TD-20 [SETUP]
Device ID
The setting described here is necessary only when you wish to
transmit separate data to two or more TD-20 units at the same
time. Do not change this setting in any other case. (At the
factory settings, the device ID is set to "17.")
If you lose track of the Device ID setting that was used
when saving data via a bulk dump, it will no longer be
possible to reload the bulk data that was saved.
Example:
Suppose that when data was saved via bulk dump (p. 77), the
TD-20's Device ID was set to "17." When re-transmitting this
data back to the TD-20, it won't receive if the Device ID is set
to something other than "17."

V-LINK MIDI Ch (V-LINK MIDI Channel)
When V-LINK function (p. 84) is on, the performance data
recorded in the backing part of the sequencer is transmitted on
this channel.
* At the factory settings, this is set to "CH16."
V-LINK Device ID
Set this ID to match the device ID number of the Edirol DV-
7PR which is controlled by the TD-20. If this is set to "128,"
you can control the Edirol DV-7PR regardless of the device ID
number of it.
* At the factory settings, this is set to "128."
