Rear panel
1. SD card slot
You can insert an SD card in this slot.
Refer to p.14 for details on inserting, removing, and
handling media.
2. USB B connector (for connecting to a
computer)
You can connect your computer to this connector.
Using a single USB cable, your TR can send and receive
MIDI information to and from a computer . This elimi-
nates the need for a MIDI interface and the associated
cables. (
☞PG p.233)
What is USB?
USB stands for Universal Serial Bus, and is an interface
for transferring data between a computer, a keyboard
and/or peripheral devices.
The USB connector of the TR is only able to trans-
mit and receive MIDI data.
3. [POWER] switch
This switch turns the power on/off (☞p.18).
4. AC power supply connector (~AC9V)
Connect this to the included AC/AC power supply.
After connecting the power supply cable to TR, con-
nect the other end to an AC outlet (
☞p.12).
5. AUDIO OUTPUT
Connect these outputs to the input jacks of your amp
or mixer. In addition to the L/MONO and R main ste-
reo audio outputs, TR provides two individual audio
outputs. The sound from each oscillator, drum, tim-
bre/track, or insertion effect can be freely routed to
any output (
☞p.112–).
