Common TR 1000 Questions
How do I sync the TR-1000 to my DAW via MIDI?
Connect the TR-1000's MIDI out to your audio interface's MIDI in. In your DAW, select the TR-1000 as the MIDI clock source or destination, ensuring you set the TR-1000 to external sync mode via the Global settings menu.
How do I save a custom drum kit or pattern on the TR-1000?
To save a drum kit, navigate to the Kit Edit mode, make your adjustments, and then hold SHIFT + the desired memory location button (1-128). For patterns, go into Pattern Edit mode and similarly hold SHIFT + a memory location to save.
The TR-1000 isn't making any sound, even though the sequence is running. What could be the problem?
First, check the master volume knob and headphone output volume. If that's not the issue, ensure that the instrument level for each individual sound in the pattern is properly set within the Sequencer Mode.
How do the 'Probability' and 'Flam' parameters work on the TR-1000's sequencer?
The 'Probability' parameter determines the chance a step will trigger its assigned sound, allowing for variations. 'Flam' creates a short delay between two consecutive notes on a single step, controlled by the dedicated 'Flam Time' parameter.
How do I create fills or variations in the TR-1000's pattern sequencer?
Use the 'Fill' mode, accessible via the Mode button. Here you can record a short fill pattern that can be triggered manually or programmed to automatically trigger after a set number of measures in your main pattern.
