How to set a Roland SPD6 to my DTXPRESS?

How to set a Roland SPD6 to my DTXPRESS?

2006-11-10 by akadien33

I have a Roland SPD6 that I wish to use as extra triggers for my
DTXPRESS.  Besides the MIDI cable, I have no clue on how to set it up,
can anyone help me out?
ThanX
Fred

hi. i have a malletKat midi'd into a dtxpress II, so this might work. assuming you've 
hooked the midi cables up correctly (out from the spd6, in to the dtxpress), then set the 
dtxpress to send on midi channel 10. any other channel will get you gm midi sounds 
(pianos, etc.) set the spd6 to receive on midi channel ten. that should get you percussion 
sounds. then assign sounds you want to hear to the midi note numbers (0-127, c-2 to 
G8). then assign a midi note number to each pad on the spd6. voila. again, i have no 
experience with the spd6 so you'll have to figure out how to assign different sounds to 
different pads. but i have a malletKAT and a PTX-8 midi'd into my dtxpressII and this 
method works fine.

cheers,

P,
Thanks for your response. How do you configure your DTXpress module so that your malletKat "talks" to your module? That's where I'm a bit confuse.
