Nope...

Thru is just plain thru and not a combined thru/out jack.

as jesper says its a midi thru only
the mtx 9 ws designed back in the day as addon for the sds9 to digitise the toms (or in my case add another 3 things to hit on the kit) reading the two manuals sds9 and mtx together made sense (although i  never really got my head around the sde when i had one in the rack)
it's really nothing more than a voice expander

  Hi Drummers !

  Can anyone tell me if the MTX9 can output midi info when you hit some 
  pads, so you can use it as a basic 3 channel trigger to midi unit ?

  I can't seem to get any output from the midi thru connector at the 
  back (I don't have a manual).

  If it's possible, what buttons should you press on the front panel ?

  (I guess it's a combination of program, select and channel ?)

  Thanks Dudes !

I might have to buy a Roland TD3 then.

Thanks both.
