PCM 80 User Guide
Some synthesizers and controllers cannot send the full range of MIDI program
change messages (1-128). Others may appear to be able to send only 32, but
actually have a bank mode that does let you send all 128 program change
messages. Also, be aware that some MIDI devices use a program numbering
system that uses 0-127 instead of 1-128. If in doubt, see the manual for your
controller.
You can choose to have the PCM 80 send MIDI Controller messages whenever
you turn ADJUST (the soft knob in Program Banks or Register Banks modes),
or to activate analog controllers connected to the rear panel Footswitch or Foot
Controller jacks. This makes it possible to record real-time control of PCM 80
effects with a MIDI sequencer — A simple but quite powerful way to automate
effects.
To send MIDI data from these controllers, first set Control mode 3.2 (Transmit)
to the desired MIDI Channel. (The default is Channel 1.)
Controller quirks
When a PCM 80 controller is assigned to a MIDI Controller, the PCM 80 will
respond to incoming controller messages as though its own controller were
moved. In other words, if FootSw1 is assigned to Sustain, the PCM 80 will
respond to incoming Sustain messages as though FootSw1 had been activated.

Controllers. Press Load/

Sw1, Foot Sw2 or ADJUST. Turn ADJUST to assign the MIDI Controller data
to be sent when the displayed controller is activated. (The default assignment is
None.).
