It's possible to assign instruments in the TD-50 to any of the Direct Outputs. This can be convenient when wanting to control the volume levels individually in an external mixer for live or recording purposes. From the factory, the outputs are already conveniently preassigned. Here are the steps if you'd like to customize the assignments:
1. Press the SETUP button.
2. Press F1 (OUTPUT).
3. Press F2 (DIRECT).
4. Hit the pad, or press the cursor buttons to highlight the trigger input that you want to assign.
5. Turn the dial to to choose the desired output destination.
6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for the other pads as desired.
7. Press EXIT when you're finished. The new settings are saved automatically.
