Use the buttons of the PROGRAM CHANGE
MODE field to select the program change
transmission/reception mode.

You can select one of the following two program
change transmission/reception modes.

Multi mode (when the MULTI button is on)

Program changes of all MIDI channels will be trans-
mitted and received. (The transmit/receive channel
specified in the MIDI SETUP popup window will be
ignored.)
When a program change is received, the event
assigned to the corresponding MIDI channel and pro-
gram number in the list will be executed.
When you execute the specified event on the LS9, the
program change of the corresponding MIDI channel
and program number in the list will be transmitted.

Single mode (when the SINGLE button is on)

Only program changes of the transmit (Tx) and
receive (Rx) channels specified in the MIDI SETUP
popup window will be transmitted and received.
When a program change on the Rx channel is
received, the event assigned to that program number of
the corresponding channel in the list will be executed.
When you execute a specific event on the LS9, the
program change of the corresponding program number
will be transmitted on the Tx channel shown in the list.
(If an event is assigned to more than one program
number on the same channel, the lowest-numbered
program number will be transmitted.)

If you turn on the OMNI button / BANK button in Sin-
gle mode, operation will change as follows.

When the OMNI button is on

Program changes of all MIDI channels will be
received. However, regardless of the MIDI channel
that is received, the event assigned to the corre-
sponding program number of the Rx channel will
be executed.
Turning on the OMNI button will not change the
operation for program change transmission.

When the BANK button is on

The CH indication in the list will change to BANK
(bank number), and bank select (control change
#0, #32) + program change messages can be trans-
mitted and received. This is convenient when you
want to control more than 128 events on a single
MIDI channel.

When bank select and then program change messages
(in that order) are received on the Rx channel, the
event assigned to that bank number and program num-
ber in the list will be executed.
When you execute a specific event on the LS9, bank
select + program change messages for the bank num-
ber and program number assigned to that event will be
transmitted on the Tx channel. (If the same event is
assigned more than once in the list, the lowest-num-
bered bank number and program number will be trans-
mitted.)

Use the buttons of the PROGRAM CHANGE
field to turn transmission and reception on/
off, and make settings for echo output.

This field includes the following items.

Tx button

Switches program change transmission on/off.

Rx button

Switches program change reception on/off.

ECHO button

This selects whether incoming program changes are
echoed-out from the transmission port.

• The settings of the OMNI and BANK buttons are ignored in

Multi mode.

• If the BANK button is on and only a program change on an

applicable MIDI channel is received, the last-selected bank
number will be used.

NOTE

• If the BANK button is on, the OMNI button can also be turned

on at the same time. In this case, bank select + program
change messages of all MIDI channels will be received.
