TS-10 Musician’s Manual Section 10 — Understanding the Sequencer

receiving unit is playing. While playing the TS-10 Keyboard, adjust the program number until

the external instrument is playing the sound you want.

From now on, whenever you select that sequence, or when it plays as a step in a song, this

track will send out this program change on its selected MIDI channel.

Note: When sequencing, you should always select the sounds for remote MIDI devices from the TS-10

as described above, and not from the remote MIDI device itself. This assures that the track has

the proper program number for that instrument in each sequence.

Recording MIDI Tracks

Once everything is set up, you can proceed with recording MIDI tracks exactly as you would for

tracks with local or both status. Tracks that are sent out MIDI are treated the same as internal

tracks in terms of recording, overdubbing, punching in, editing, etc. Follow the same steps

outlined earlier in this section for recording the first track and then for additional tracks.

For each successive track you record, the procedure will follow the same lines:

1) Define the MIDI configuration of the track on the Track MIDI page

2) Record the track

3) Either keep or reject the new track from the Audition page

MIDI tracks can be selected and stacked from the Tracks pages, and can be muted or soloed from

the Mix/Pan page, the same as any other tracks. Performance/Track parameters such as Mix,

Key Zone and Transpose all apply to MIDI tracks just as with local tracks.

Most often you will be recording sequences and songs which contain some MIDI tracks and some

local tracks. When this is the case, be sure that you assign local status (as opposed to both local

and MIDI) to the tracks that you want to play only on the TS-10. This will avoid accidentally

sending unintended MIDI data to an external instrument.

Additional Sequencer Functions

Recording Controllers into Sequencer Tracks

When recording sequencer tracks, the TS-10 will record all changes to controllers such as the

pitch and mod wheels, pressure, foot pedal, patch selects, sustain, sostenuto, effect, foot switch,

etc.

There are other, less obvious, controllers that will be recorded into the track if they are changed

while the track is being recorded — The Pan, Attack, Release, Brightness, Timbre, XCTRL, and

Rate Track parameters. When the sequencer is in Record or Overdub mode, if you go to any of

these Track Parameter pages and change the value for the current track, the changes will be

recorded. When you play back the track, you will notice that the screen is updated with the new

value.

Tip: You can use the Controllers On/Off and the Velocity range parameters (found in the Track

Parameters section on the front panel) as filters on sequence playback. For instance, you could

audition the track with the Pitch Bend removed (if PBEND is set to OFF).

Changing a Sound within a Sequence or Song Track (Recording Program

Changes)

The TS-10 can change track sounds in a sequence or song, allowing you to change the sound that

is playing on the track as the track plays. There are two ways to do this. Both methods will have

the same effect, but the first is best suited for local tracks, the second for MIDI tracks.
