Max PC # - Sets the maximum program change number accepted by a device. MIDI specifies a maximum number of
127, but not all effect processors have that many presets. Setting this correctly insures that the Mastermind PBC doesn’t
send a program change number that’s too large.
Bank Type – Sets the type of MIDI bank message accepted by a device. MIDI bank messages are used to access more
than 127 presets on a device. There are several ways this can be done, and the type of banks used will vary from device
to device. The possible settings are: None (no bank support), LSB, MSB and MSB:LSB.
Max Bank # - Sets the maximum bank number accepted by a device. Most devices only support a small number of
banks. This parameter allows you to limit the number of banks to keep from exceeding that number.
Init PCs -None- – Initializes all presets for this device. Selecting this option will initialize all presets on the Mastermind
PBC to send no program change messages to this device. This is different than turning the Send PC setting off in that it
can be overridden on any preset using the Edit Presets menu and assigning a PC number to this device for one or more
presets.
Init PCs All 0 – Initializes all presets for this device. Selecting this option will initialize all presets on the Mastermind PBC
to send program change number 0 to this device.
Init PCs Sequential
– Initializes all presets for this device. Selecting this option will initialize all presets on the
Mastermind PBC to send a sequential program change number to the device. Preset #0 will send program change #0,
preset #1 will send program change #1, etc. This is the default setting for a new device.
CC On Preset (Send CC on Preset Change) – When set to “On”, this device will receive CC messages every time the
preset changes, and when an IA button is pressed. When set to “Off”, this device will only receive its CC messages when
an IA button is pressed.
Send PC – When set to “On”, the Mastermind PBC will be allowed to send PC messages to the device. When set to “Off”,
PC messages will not be allowed. Setting this to “Off” will disable some of the PC and Bank related items in the Edit
Device menu.
SndRdunPC (Send Redundant PC) – When set to “Off”, the same PC message will never be sent to a device more than
once in a row. Some effects processors will cause a gap or hiccup in the audio when receiving a PC message, so turning
this parameter off will help prevent that from happening. Turning this parameter to “On” will cause the Mastermind
PBC to send a PC message when requested, whether it’s a duplicate or not.
IgnorePCIn (Ignore Incoming PC) – When set to “On”, any incoming program changes generated by this device will be
ignored. Otherwise, these incoming PC messages will cause the PBC to change presets when received.
IgnoreCCIn (Ignore Incoming CC) – When set to “On”, any incoming continuous controller messages generated by this
device will be ignored. Otherwise, these incoming CC messages (and other status messages) will cause the PBC to
change IA button states.
Delete Device
– Deletes this device from the system, leaving an empty slot.
Edit Presets
The Edit Presets menu lets you define which program change messages are sent to each device for the preset, as well as
the preset name, expression pedal settings and the current button page.
Name – Sets the name of this preset.
Page – Sets the number of the button page that will be displayed when this preset is selected. Setting the page to
“Same” will keep the current button page when the preset is selected.
Tempo – Sets the tempo (in BPM) for this preset. A tempo setting of 0 (zero) indicates that this preset has no tempo
defined. See the Tap Tempo and MIDI Clock section for details.
