Quick Access Mode
In Quick Access mode, you can select programs or setups with a single press of an alphanumeric
button (or with other data entry methods). The PC3 offers a number of ways to quickly make
selections while performing, but only Quick Access mode lets you store programs and setups
together fro instant access.
Using Quick Access mode involves selecting Quick Access banks from the list of factory preset
or user-programmed banks. You can use the bank selection shortcut to do this: press the +/– or
Clear
button on the alphanumeric pad, and you’ll be prompted to enter a bank number. Type
the desired number on the alphanumeric pad, then press Enter. The bank is selected, and you
return to the Quick Access mode page. Or use the Chan/Layer buttons to scroll through the QA
banks.
Each bank contains ten memory slots, or entries, where you can store programs or setups in any
combination. Any program or setup in the currently selected bank can be selected with the
numeric buttons 0 through 9.
The ROM (factory preset) QA banks are organized into useful groupings of sounds that we
think you’ll find convenient.
You can store 20 Quick Access banks in each memory bank. Press both Chan/Layer buttons
simultaneously to quickly move between memory banks.
The MIDI Program Change commands that the PC3 sends when in Quick Access mode can
differ from those in Program or Setup mode. This depends on the setting you have for the
PChgType parameter in MIDI mode. If the setting is Extended or Kurzweil, the Program
Change commands sent are the same as in Program or Setup mode. If the setting is
QA Extended
or QA Kurzweil, the PC3 sends Program Change commands that correspond to
the current Quick Access bank and the entry you select, not the actual program number of the
entry.
