Roland SC-88 Pro - Manual (Page 43)

● Using MIDI messages to select Patches
Normally when a MIDI program change message is received, the Instrument of a Part
will change. However if you set the MIDI channel for the Patch, the Patch will change
when a program change message is received (p.131).
With the Patch MIDI CH settings of “
A--
” or “
B--
”, incoming program changes will
select the Instrument of the corresponding Part.
* With the factory settings, the Patch MIDI CH is set to A-- .
1.
Press the [ALL] button to make the button indicator light.
2.
Use MIDI CH [ l l l l ] [ r r r r ] to set the MIDI channel.
For example, suppose that the MIDI channels of the Patch and Part were set to the
same value. In this case, an incoming program change on channel 1 [C0H 01H] will
select Patch
02 MILD OD
, but the Instrument of Part A01 the instrument (TC Front
Pick) specified for the Patch will be used.
Patch MIDI CH: “A01”
Part A01 MIDI CH: “A01”
If you want program changes to once again select the Instrument of Part A01, set the
Patch MIDI CH to “ A-- ”.
* It takes awhile until the sound can be heard after you change the Patch.
