Program Mode
Control Setup
Control Setup Advanced Features
The control setup can also be used to set other parameters which affect program mode. See
Chapter 7
Setup Mode
for details on each of these parameters:
•
Velocity scaling can be set in the Setup Editor with parameters on the KEY-VEL page.
Though a master velocity map can be set with the Velocity Map parameter on the Master
Mode MAPS page (see
page 11-5
,) setting velocity scaling in the Control Setup provides more
options.
•
Programmable switch destinations can be set on the Setup Editor PRG SWITCH pages. In
Program mode, the Programmable Switches act as Program Select buttons if none of them
are assigned to a destination in the control setup
.
If at least one Programmable Switch is
assigned in the control setup, then the assigned Programmable Switch buttons act as
assigned, but none of the buttons function as program select buttons.
•
Ribbon settings can be set on the Setup Editor RIBBON and RIBBON CONFIGUR pages.
• MIDI aftertouch can be turned off on the Setup Editor PRESSURE page by setting the Dest
field to OFF.
•
On the CH/PROG page you can set the Bank Mode which determines the type of MIDI bank
messages that Program Mode will send to the USB and MIDI out ports when changing
programs. See
Program Change (ProgChang)
on page 10-5
to disable the PC3A from sending
program change messages.
•
The Destination parameter on the CH/PROG page determines where MIDI messages are
sent. Usually this should be kept at its default setting UMIDI+LOCAL, and the
MIDI message destination for Program mode should be set with the Destination parameter
on the MIDI Mode Transmit page (see
page 10-2
for details.) The Destination parameter on
the CH/PROG page works in combination with the Destination parameter on the MIDI
Mode Transmit page. For example if the Destination parameter on the CH/PROG page is set
to MIDI+LOCAL, then MIDI messages will not be sent to the USB port, even if USB_
MIDI+MIDI+LOCAL is selected for the Destination parameter on the MIDI Mode Transmit
page.
Selecting And Editing The Control Setup
The current control setup can be selected on the MIDI Mode Transmit page using the
ControlSetup parameter.
To edit the current control setup, select the ControlSetup parameter on the MIDI Mode Transmit
page, then press the Edit button to the left of the display. You can also select the setup in Setup
Mode and then press the Edit button to the left of the display. If you edit or overwrite the default
Control Setup (
126 Internal Voices
), you can always recall the original control setup by deleting
the setup stored at ID# 126. This will return the setup to its default settings. You can delete a
setup by using the Delete soft button in the Setup Editor.
When selecting or editing the Control Setup, only Zone 1 of the setup has an effect on program
mode.
(Zones 2–16 are not relevant in Program Mode, because the PC3A’s physical controllers can only
control one MIDI channel at a time in Program Mode.)
See
Table 6-4
below for which pages and
parameters in the Setup Editor of the Control Setup have an affect on Programs in Program
Mode.
Note:
The Control Setup doesn’t affect the
sound
of a program, only the assignments of certain
physical controllers. The samples and keymaps assigned to a program are unaffected by the
Control Setup. While you’re in Program mode, the PC3A ignores the programs assigned to the
setup that you chose as the Control Setup.
