parameter. Selection of another Mix in the same bank will send a
Program change command which matches the Mix number.
In Mix Program Select Mode (where you choose the Programs within
the Mix), changing the Bank of any Program within the Mix will not
send a Bank Select command. Selecting a new Program within the Mix
will not send a Program change command.
Transmitting MIDI Volume and Panning
Each channel in a Mix can transmit its volume and panning settings via
MIDI. For each channel on which you wish to transmit this data, MIDI
Out must be set to ON and MIDI Input and Keyboard must be set to
OFF. Also, the Keyboard mode must be NORMAL and the MIDI
Program Select parameter must be set to ON (Global Mode, pages 6 and
14).
If a channel is set up this way:
• Whenever a Mix is recalled (via the front panel or via MIDI), volume
and panning information will be transmitted for that channel;
• Whenever that Channel’s “Level” parameter is edited, volume
information will be transmitted as Controller #7 on that channel;
• Whenever that Channel’s “Pan” parameter is edited, panning
information will be transmitted as Controller #10 on that channel.
However, panning information will not be sent if the channel's "Pan"
parameter is set to PROG.
The seven pan positions in a Mix send the following controller #10
values:
Mix Pan value CC#10 value
3> 127
2> 107
1> 85
< > 64
<1 43
<2 21
<3 0
Conversely, if you want to change the panning of a QS Program via
MIDI, here is what you'll get if you transmit a given Controller #10
value:
CC#10 value Mix Pan value Placement
0-20 <3 hard left
21-42 <2 mid left
43-63 <1 soft left
64-84 < > center
85-106 1> soft right
107-126 2> mid right
127 3> hard right
