Descriptions of Parameters
The Global Menu
5-30
AllNotesOff
If you set this to
Ignore
, the PC1 will ignore the MIDI All Notes Off message. Some instruments
and sequencers (notably older Roland instruments) will send this message when no notes are
being held, even if the sustain pedal is still held. If you are hooked to a Roland sequencer and
find that the PC1 doesn’t seem to sustain, set this parameter to
Ignore
and the problem will go
away.
The default value is
Respond
, which causes the PC1 to respond to All Notes Off messages.
Device ID
Sets the ID used by the PC1 for MIDI SysEx messages--which the PC1 uses for dumping objects.
The default value is
0
.
If you always dump objects--programs, setups, or effects--to the same device and reload them
from that device, you won’t have to worry about this parameter; just leave its value at
0
and your
dumps will work just fine. If you plan to dump objects to different instruments in a MIDI chain,
however--or if you want to reload different dumps to different instruments in a MIDI chain--
you’ll need to change the device ID for at least one instrument. See
More About SysEx Dumps
on
page 4-7.
Output Mode
Configures the PC1 for monaural (mono) or stereo audio output. The default is
Stereo
. You might
want to use mono mode if you have a mono sound system, or have only one channel available on
your mixer.
