INTRODUCTION
The DT-01 is a programmer specially designed for the D-50, D-550 and
D-05. Using the Programmer, a sound on the D-50 can be much more
easily and quickly edited or even synthesized from scratch. The MIDI
Exclusive messages (specific messages used by individual manufacturer)
sent from the DT-01 does the editing and synthesizing.
Therefore, the DT-01 cannot control the synthesizers other than the D-
50 , D-550 and D-05.

Intended use
The DT-01 is intended to create new sounds for your synthesizer, It is
possible to play your D50 over midi when the DT-01 is attached.
However this is not recommended and can result in unreliable data or
‘sticky notes’
Box content
Please ensure that your DT-01 includes the following:
•DT-01 Programmer

MIDI Connections IN / OUT / THRU
The messages fed into the MIDI IN of the DT-01 is mixed with the sound
editing messages created in the DT-01, and the mixed message
is sent through MIDI OUT. The MIDI THRU sends out the exact copy of
the messages fed into MIDI IN,
