There are a lot of sounds in Supernova II Rack & they are arranged into “Banks”. There are 4 Banks of 128 Performances, ( 512
Performances in total ) 8 Banks of 128 Programs, ( 1024 Programs in total ) & 8 Drum Maps each with 50 Programs. Pressing the
Program button will activate the Program Mode & the display will show:
Program mode has been selected because the Program button is lit & the bottom line of the display is indicating “Prog” followed by
the Bank & number of the sound. The top line is displaying the name of the sound.
Pressing the Bank up button & the display changes to:
Bank B has now been selected. The higher Data knob can also be used to select the required bank. A further entry is required to
determine the location of the sound within this Bank if different from the current selection. Use the Program buttons or the lower
Data knob to select Program 123 & the display shows:
And the sound has changed.
Pressing the Bank down button once will bring Supernova II Rack back to the A Bank.
Selecting Performances is done in exactly the same way.
When sounds are selected from the front panel, the appropriate MIDI Bank & Program change messages are sent on the last entry
of the keypad & can be recorded on Computer Software / Sequencer. Selecting sounds via MIDI is very simple, just send the
appropriate MIDI Bank number & Program change commands to Supernova II Rack from the Computer Software / Sequencer. To
change Programs & Performances, these messages should be sent on the Global MIDI Channel. If however you have a
Multitimbral Performance, individual parts can be changed with suitable Bank number & Program change messages on the individ-
ual MIDI Channels assigned to the “Parts” of the Performance.
There is a Chart on page 125 outlining all the different Bank numbers for selecting the different modes via MIDI.
