play shown above and press the [SAVE/ENT] button.
The display shown below will appear.3-2.  Channel 10 Program Change/Channel Event Receive
This enables or disables the DTXPRESS II to receive program
change messages/channel events through MIDI channel 10. Pro-
gram change messages received or transmitted through channel
10 can be used to switch DTXPRESS II drum kits.
It is necessary to set the receive parameter to “on” in this display
in order to switch the DTXPRESS II’s drum kits from a song or an
external MIDI device.
3.Press the [SAVE/ENT] or [VALUE+] button, the bulk dump
will be carried out.
* Press [VALUE-] to cancel the bulk dump.
When the operation is complete, the LCD will display “Com-
plete” as shown below.

Receiving Bulk Data
DTXPRESS II data stored in an external device can be sent
back to the DTXPRESS II’s MIDI IN/TO HOST jack using
Bulk Data Receive.
1.After reading the [Connecting a MIDI Device] (Basic
Guide : P. 12) or  the [Connecting a Computer] (Ba-
sic Guide : P. 26) section,  connect the MIDI device
or computer to the MIDI OUT jack/TO HOST jack on
the DTXPRESS II. Set the HOST SELECT switch.
2.With the sequencer (song, metronome) stopped,
send bulk data from the external device.
3.When the DTXPRESS II starts receiving data, the
following screen will appear on the LCD.
4.When the DTXPRESS II has completed receiving
all the data, the following screen will appear on the
LCD for a few seconds, then the screen will return to
the original display (before receiving bulk data).
* Before receiving bulk data, it is necessary to match the de-
vice numbers (P. 32 [3-6]) of the DTXPRESS II and the
external device. It is also necessary to enable the
DTXPRESS II to receive exclusive messages (P. 31 [3-3]).

Utility Mode
3-4.  Program Change Table
Use this function to create a program change table (a list of pro-
gram change numbers that correspond to drum kits).
A program change message received internally from the
DTXPRESS II or through channel 10 from an external MIDI de-
vice will select, according to the program change table, the drum
kit corresponding to the kit number in the DTXPRESS II.
3-6.  Device Number, Local Control
Sets the MIDI device number and local control.
q No (Program Change Number)
Sets the program change number (1-128).
When the program change number set in this parameter is received,
the corresponding drum kit number that is set in the following
“kit” parameter will be selected.
w kit (Drum Kit Number)
Sets the drum kit number (1-80).
If this parameter is set to “none” the DTXPRESS II will not re-
spond, even when a program change message is received.
* When the drum kit is changed with the DTXPRESS II, the pro-
gram change set in this function will be transmitted through MIDI
channel 10. However, when a program change number is not
assigned, it will not transmit.
* When the following [3-5. MIDI Mode] is set to GM, receiving
program changes will be limited.
3-5.  MIDI Mode
This sub-group contains settings related to the MIDI IN jack and
TO HOST input jack that affect tone generator events.

UT MIDI SETUP
MIDI Mode=native
qq DevNo (Device Number)
Sets the MIDI device number (1-16).
Bulk dumps will be transmitted with this device number.
Only data corresponding to this device number will be recognized
when received.
If this is set to “AL”, the device number will be “1” for transmit-
ting data and data will be received from all device numbers.
w Locl (Local Control)
Switches Local Control ON or OFF.
off: MIDI signals triggered by the connected pads is disconnected
from the DTXPRESS II’s tone generator, there will be no
sound produced by the DTXPRESS II’s tone generator. The
DTXPRESS II will transmit MIDI signals from the MIDI
OUT jack and TO HOST jack.
on: Normal operation. MIDI signals will be transmitted to the
DTXPRESS II’s tone generator as well as the MIDI OUT
and TO HOST jacks.
3-7.  MIDI Merge
Sets the MIDI Merge function ON or OFF. When this function is
ON, data received from an external MIDI device connected to the
MIDI IN jack will be mixed with internal MIDI data from the
DTXPRESS II and transmitted from the DTXPRESS II’s MIDI
OUT jack.
q Merge Output (Merge Out)
on: Sends signals to the MIDI OUT jack.
off: Does not send signal to the MIDI OUT jack (internal opera-
tion only). Normal operation.
Connecting the MIDI IN/OUT jacks on a single de-
vice and setting MIDI Merge to “on” will result in a
signal loop that may cause notes to sound (play) con-
tinuously.

off: Does not send data to the MIDI OUT jack and TO HOST
jack.
* This setting does not affect internal operating data for the hi-hat
controller.
3-10.  Host Thru Port
This enables the DTXPRESS II to transmit multi-port type mes-
sages received from the TO HOST jack. Only messages corre-
sponding to the set port number will be sent via MIDI.
