moved back to the BANK parameter if necessary by
pressing the MEMORY (◄) key.
• Program Change Table Edit
When this function is called the LCD will appear as shown

number is to be assigned. The range of available
program change numbers is from 1 to 128.
© Move the underline cursor to the MEM parameter by
pressing the PARAM (►) key. Use the Aand Tkeys to
select the memory location number containing the

by pressing the MEMORY (Ml) key and repeat the
above steps to assign as many program change
numbers as necessary.
NOTE; The program number/memory number
assignments made are stored in the BANK

assignments for a different BANK, return to the
MIDI SETUP display, select the desired BANK,
then program the required assignments.
NOTE: Although the BANKA, B, and Cprogram change
tables are retained in memory even when the
power is off, the BANK D program change table is
automatically initialized whenever the FX500
power switch is turned on (PGM number = MEM
number). Make sure you program PGM/MEM
assignments you want to keep in BANK A, B, or
C.

Change 2 Table Edit
The FX500 allows two MIDI "controllers" to be assigned for
remote real-time control of effect parameters. "MIDI
controller" actually refers to a MIDI CONTROL CHANGE
number between 0 and 127. Some of these numbers are
assigned to specific controllers — modulation wheel, data
entry, etc — and a MIDI device such as a keyboard or
MFC1 MIDI Foot Controller that has the any of these
controllers will transmit the corresponding MIDI control
change data when the controllers are operated. You could,
for example, assign an FC7 connected to an MFC1 to
control the FX500 reverb time.
