KCPSYS —
Keys, Controllers, Program Changes and System Exclusives
Key Events, Controllers, Program Changes and System Exclusive messages will all be received
via MIDI in this Mode. This enables the ESQ-M to receive System Exclusive messages, such as
Parameter selects, Parameter Changes, Program Dumps, etc. In this state the ESQ-M can be
programmed from an ESQ-1 — any parameter you select and modify on the ESQ-1 will be
selected and modified on the
ESQ-M (except for those on the
MIDI
Page).
In this State you can also program the ESQ-M from a computer (with the proper software) or
send and receive Programs between the ESQ-M and a computer using any of the Librarian
Programs available. Patch Librarian programs designed for the ESQ-1 are fully compatible
with the ESQ-M (at least those distributed by ENSONIQ are).
A
few notes about System Exclusives:

After performing a Program Dump or doing some remote programming, you should take
care not to leave System Exclusive messages enabled when returning to normal operation.
Change the setting of this parameter back to
[ENBL=K +
C + PC]. Otherwise
you may find
that the ESQ-M is still responding to the Data Entry Slider and the Inc/Dec buttons of your
master keyboard by more or less randomly changing Programs, parameter values, etc. This can
be bad for one's mental health and should be avoided.

For the same reason, this parameter is one of the very few on the ESQ-M whose value is
not preserved exactly when the ESQ-M is turned Off and then On again. If System
Exclusive messages are enabled
[ENBL=KCPSYS] when the unit is turned Off, when you
next turn it b a c k o n t h i s p a r a m e t e r w i l l b e r e s e t t o K e y s , C o n t r o l l e r s a n d P r o g r a m
C h a n g e s
[ENBL=K+C+ PC]. If you want to enable System Exclusives after powering up,
you must select and change this parameter accordingly.
5. TRACK —
Current Track
This parameter allows you to change the current Track from within the MIDI Page. Changing
the Track here has exactly the same effect as changin g Tracks on the
Program
Page (by
pressing
Scroll). A
Track change made here will be reflected on the Program Page, and vice
versa.
This parameter is very useful when you are setting up MIDI Channels, Programs and Mix levels
for several Tracks. You can use this parameter to change to a new Track without having to exit
the MIDI Page.
6. BASECHAN
(or CHAN) — MIDI Channel
This parameter determines which MIDI Channel (or MIDI Channels) the ESQ-M will receive
(and send) on. The appearance of this parameter can change depending on which MIDI Mode is
selected (see #3 above) and which Track is the current Track.
In OMNI or POLY Mode:
T h i s p a r a m e t e r w i l l a l w a ys r e a d " B A S E C H A N = " , n o
matter which Track is the current Track. This indicates that the MIDI Channel showing on the
Display is the
Base Channel.

In OMNI Mode the current Track (whichever Track is selected) will receive on any
Channel; any data sent by the ESQ-M (Program Changes, Controllers, etc.) will be sent on
the Base Channel.

In POLY Mode the current Track (whichever Track is selected) will receive only on the
Base Channel; any data sent by the ESQ-M will be sent on the Base Channel.

Any of the sixteen MIDI Channels may be selected to be the Base Channel.
Range:
01
To
16.
----> In MULTI Mode:

When
Track 0 is selected, the Display will show "BASECHAN= ". Track 0 will
always send and receive MIDI information on the Base Channel, except in MONO Mode. In
MULTI Mode, Track 0 gets priority on the Base Channel — any other Track set to the same Channel as
