Using Program Change Messages to Recall Scenes
When the VM200 receives a MIDI Program Change, it can recall a
scene from Scene Memory. (Which scene it recalls is determined by
the Program Change Assignment Table. For more information, see
page 210.)
Similarly, when you recall a scene on the VM200, it can transmit a
Program Change message that will recall a scene on another VM200.
Alternatively, the Program Change message can be recorded to a
MIDI sequencer and later used to recall a particular scene automati-
cally.
Scene Memories 0 through 99 and Preset Scenes P0, P1, and P2 are
initially assigned to Program Changes 1 through 128. However, you
can edit these assignments using the
3:PGM. TABLE2 function page,
which you can access by pressing the [MIDI] function key.
These assignments control both transmission (TX) and reception
(RX). For example, when the VM200 receives Program Change 07
from an external MIDI device, it will recall Scene 07. Inversely, when
Scene 07 is recalled, the VM200 will transmit Program Change 07.
Follow these steps to set up the VM200 to receive and transmit MIDI
Program Change messages:
1.
Press the [MIDI] key.
The VM200 displays the 1:MIDI TX&RX function page.
2.
Set the VM200 and the external MIDI device to the same
MIDI channel.
The external MIDI device that receives MIDI messages from the
VM200 should be set to the MIDI Channel specified by the TX CH
parameter.
The RX CH parameter of the VM200 should be set to the same
MIDI Channel as the device transmitting MIDI messages.
3. Set the TX CH and/or RX CH parameters to ON.
Use the EQ/LO and EQ/LO-MID Gain rotary controls. Refer to
the illustration below.
Program Change TX and RX are “ON.”
