Program Change Formats
Preliminary - Subject to Change 10-7
Pan
This offsets the pan position of the current program as set on the OUTPUT page in the Program
Editor. A value of 0 is maximum offset to the left, 64 is no offset, and 127 is maximum offset to
the right. Changing the value of this parameter is like inserting a MIDI pan message. MIDI Pan
(MIDI 10) messages will change the value of this parameter, unless the PanLock parameter
(described below) is set to On.
If the Mode parameter on the OUTPUT page in the Program Editor is set to Fixed, changing the
value of Pan on the CHANNELS page in MIDI mode has no effect.
Volume
This sets the volume for any program assigned to the currently selected channel. A value of 0 is
silence, and a value of 127 is full volume. The value of this parameter will change in response to
MIDI Volume (MIDI 07) messages, unless the VolLock parameter (described below) is set to On.
Program Lock, Pan Lock, Volume Lock
When the parameter locks are set to On, the three parameters they control do not respond to
their respective MIDI controller messages. In that case, you could change the Program, Pan, and
Volume settings from the front panel, but not via MIDI.
Program Change Formats
The PC3 can store more programs than the MIDI program change specification can handle
(MIDI lets you send program change numbers from 0 to 127 or 1 to 128 only). So we’ve designed
a system that makes program selection more flexible. This is true whether you’re selecting
programs from the PC3’s front panel, or via MIDI.
The PC3 gives you thousands of program change numbers to work with. These are organized
into ten banks of 128 each (the memory banks). A program’s object ID is its program change
number, as discussed in Chapter 5. This makes it easy to keep track of your programs. The PC3
can use several different formats for interpreting program change commands. The value for the
ProgChgMode parameter on the RECEIVE page determines which format is used, and the one
you should select depends on your MIDI system.
If you expect you’ll always change programs from your PC3’s front panel, selecting programs is
as simple as entering the program change number (the program’s object ID) on the
alphanumeric pad, and pressing Enter. Even program numbers above the usual MIDI limit of
127 can be selected this way.
Program Change Type For Use With:
Extended Bank changes and Program changes. A bank has 128 ids. Note
that our system will recognize 16 banks, from 0 to 15. (2048 ids).
This is for connecting a PC2 or a generic MIDI device as a controller
device.
K2600 Bank changes and Program changes. A bank has 100 ids. Our
system will recognize in this case 21 banks, from 0 to 20. For
example, with MIDI out from a K2600 into the MIDI in of a PC3, if
you scroll or enter a number in the K2600 you will see the same
numbers in the K2600 and in the PC3 if the programs exist.
