Section 10 — Sequencer Applications EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual 

To use the EPS-16 PLUS in MONO A mode, set it up as follows: 

• Load one or more instruments into the EPS-16 PLUS. 
• Press Edit, then System•MIDI. Scroll to MIDI IN MODE. 
• Select MIDI IN MODE=MONO A. 
• Press Edit, then Track. Scroll to MULTI IN MIDI MODE. 

• Set each Instrument•Track MULTI IN MIDI CHANNEL to correspond with its 

track number (Track 1 MULTI IN MIDI CHANNEL=1, Track 2 MULTI IN 
MIDI CHANNEL=2, etc.). 

• Set your guitar controller to send in MONO mode on channels 1- 6 (some 

models have an easy shortcut for getting into this state). 

• Connect the MIDI Out of the guitar controller module to the MIDI In of the 

EPS-16 PLUS. 

• Press Load on the EPS-16 PLUS to return to LOAD mode. (Remember—the 

EPS-16 PLUS will only respond to program changes or select multiple 
instruments when in LOAD mode.) 

• Select an Instrument•Track either by pressing its front panel button or by 

sending a program change from the guitar controller. 

• You should now be able to play the EPS-16 PLUS from the guitar controller 

with all the strings playing whatever instrument(s) are selected or stacked on the 
front panel. 

To use the EPS-16 PLUS in MONO B mode: 
The procedure for using the EPS-16 PLUS in MONO B is essentially the same 
except that now each MIDI channel plays its corresponding Instrumen•Track as 

shown below.
