Identity reply and Data Set 1 (DT1) are the only System Exclusive messages transmitted by
TD-8.
When an appropriate Identity Request or Data Request 1 (RQ1) message is received, the
requested internal data will be transmitted.

* The amount of data that can be transmitted at once time will depend on the type of data,
and data must be requested using a specific starting address and size. Refer to the
Address and Size listed in “Parameter Address Map” (p. 208).
* Data larger than 128 bytes must be divided into packets of 128 bytes or less. If “Data Set
1” is transmitted successively, there must be an interval of at least 40 ms between
packets.
* Regarding the checksum please refer to p. 212.

■ Channel Voice Messages
* The following Channel Voice messages can be received on channels for which the PART
RX SW (hold down [SHIFT] and press [MIXER]) is set to “ON”.
● Note Off
Status 2nd byte 3rd byte
8nH kkH vvH
9nH kkH 00H
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
kk = note number: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
vv = note off velocity: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
* In the rhythm part (ch.10), ignored this message.
* The Velocity Values of Note Off message are ignored.
● Note On
Status 2nd byte 3rd byte
9nH kkH vvH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
kk = note number: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
vv = note on velocity: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
● Control Change

mm, ll = The value of the parameter specified by RPN.
mm = upper byte (MSB), ll = lower byte (LSB)
* In the rhythm part (ch.10), ignored this message.
On the GM mode of TD-8, RPN can be used to modify the following parameters.
