Using the Behringer TD - 3 - BK is a breeze. First, turn it on and start exploring the 11 controls and 28 switches to get a feel for adjusting the parameters. If you want to create a sequence, use the 16 - step sequencer. You can choose from 7 tracks and set up 250 user patterns on each track. For adding some edge to your sound, activate the Distortion circuit. When using the arpeggiator, pick different patterns to get various sound effects. As for combining multiple synthesizers, use the 16 - voice Poly Chain. Remember to handle the instrument gently. Keep it away from moisture and extreme temperatures. Regularly check the connections of MIDI and USB cables. If you're not using it for a long time, store it in a dry and safe place. This way, your synthesizer will serve you well for a long time.
