1.
Simultaneously press PROGRAM CHANGE and
EDIT so they’re both lit.

EDIT buttons blink several times and the
following messages are transmitted on all MIDI
channels: All Sound Off, All Notes Off, and Reset
All Controllers.
Assigning Controllers
There are 25 knobs, buttons and sliders on the
PCR-30 and PCR-50 that can be assigned to almost
any MIDI message. Check out Pages 108-129 of the
Owner’s Manual
for specifics on the different
messages you can send and how to program them.
As an example, let’s assign the S1 slider to transmit
MIDI Volume messages on MIDI Channel 3:
1.
Press EDIT so it’s lit.
2.
Move the S1 slider to select it for editing—the
screen displays “S-1”—and then press ENTER.
3.
Press the key with “CONTROL CHANGE”
printed directly above it, and then press ENTER.
4.
Use the DEC and INC buttons or the numbered
keys to select 3, for MIDI Channel 3.
5.
Press ENTER.
6.
Use the DEC and INC buttons or the keyboard to
select 7, the controller number for MIDI Volume
messages.
7.
Press ENTER.
