I just bought a new Ketron SD2 sound module this week to add to my Roland RD700SX stage piano.I use it at home.I have a Roland KC350amp,a Tascam DP03 8 track digital recorder.
I have connected up the SD2 to the piano with one midi cable connected to midi in on the SD2,that connects to the piano via midi out.I also added an RCA lead from L&R on the back of the SD2 to the amp.I wasnt familiar with that one.The SD2 doesnt have a midi out it only has a midi in and a midi thru.
The next step is getting the piano to play the sounds.I bring up the external zone on the screen just as its shown in the 1st diagram on page 61 of the Roland Rd700SX handbook:
http://www.roland.com/support/article/?q=manuals&p=RD-700SX
There are 3 chapters on midi to piano in the book.
From this point on the book doesnt make sense.
Here's the Ketron Handbook download:
http://www.ketron.com/pdf/SD2 Manual English.pdf
The LED light on the SD2 does work.When I press the buttons on the piano to change sounds the LED light flickers accordingly.I've only got 1 piano sound working.
yes,the volume on the piano is turned off and the volume on the SD2 is turned up.I need to get the piano to play the sounds.
I've contacted the shop I bought the module from.They are looking into it.I've contacted Roland.They were on the wrong direction.So here I am.I havent found any youtube video and I havent found any website that can offer instructions.
Is anyone here familiar with the RD700 series piano AND connecting a sound module? Could really use some help here.Thanks.
