Section 5
Playing drum and bass patterns on external MIDI sound module
When you play back drum and bass patterns, rhythm
arrangements, and the like, the BR-1600CD will use its
internal drum and bass sounds to reproduce the
programmed performance. However, if you want to use
drum and bass sounds other than those stored internally,
you can transmit performance data via the MIDI OUT port to
have the performance played on a different MIDI sound
module. In this way, you can play back drum and bass
patterns using your favorite sounds.
1.
Using a MIDI cable, connect the BR-1600CD to the MIDI
sound module as shown in the following diagram.
fig.50-01
2.
Press [UTILITY].
The Utility Menu screen will appear.
fig.12-12d
3.
Move the cursor to the MIDI icon and press [ENTER/YES].
Alternatively, you can press [F4] (MIDI) if the MIDI icon
is currently displayed.
The MIDI screen will appear.
fig.50-03d
4.
Move the cursor to “Drums Note Channel” and set a
suitable MIDI channel using the TIME/VALUE dial.
OFF: Note messages will not be transmitted
for drums.
1 through 16: Note messages for drums will be
transmitted on the selected MIDI
channel.
5.
Move the cursor to “Bass Note Channel” and set a
suitable MIDI channel using the TIME/VALUE dial.
OFF: Note messages will not be transmitted
for bass.
1 through 16: Note messages for bass will be
transmitted on the selected MIDI channel.
6.
When the required settings have been made, press
[EXIT/NO] several times to return to the top screen.
7.
Play the rhythm guide performance.
The rhythm and bass patterns will now both be played
by the MIDI sound module.
If necessary, adjust the volume of the performances on
the MIDI sound module.

The MIDI channel selected here must be the same as
that selected on the MIDI sound module. In the case
of GS sound module, GM sound module, and BOSS
rhythm machines, it is common for channel 10 to be
selected for drum data; accordingly, MIDI channel
10 should probably be selected at this time. For
details regarding the selection of MIDI channels on
the MIDI sound module, refer to the corresponding
user’s manual.
The MIDI channel selected here must be the same as
that selected on the MIDI sound module. In the case
of GS and GM sound module, it is common for
channel 2 to be selected for bass data; accordingly,
MIDI channel 2 should probably be selected at this
time. For details regarding the selection of MIDI
channels on the MIDI sound module, refer to the
corresponding user’s manual.
