2. Starting Up
Getting Connected
This chapter describes the steps to connect and configure SoundEditor on your computer.
Set up the PC3 according to the PC3 Musician‟s Guide (Chapter 2). Connect the PC3 to the
computer using either USB or the MIDI IN and MIDI Out DIN connectors, but not both.
SoundEditor will work with either connection.
By default, SoundEditor will check to see if a USB connection is in place when the
program starts. If no connection exists, it will default to the MIDI DIN connectors.
After insuring that the connections between the PC3 and your computer are in place, power up
the PC3, then launch SoundEditor. As the SoundEditor program starts, a splash screen similar
to the one below will appear briefly:
By default, SoundEditor will check to see if a USB connection is in place when the program
starts. If no connection exists, it will default to the MIDI DIN connectors.
You do not have to specify the type of connection in advance.
A few seconds later, the splash screen will be replaced by SoundEditor‟s „PC3 Editor‟ window.
By default, this window will display the Program Bank view as shown below, but you can chose
between „Program Bank‟ or „Setup Bank‟ as the startup view (see Configuring Preferences,
page 19)
