Set The Start-up Program And MIDI Channel

When the PC3LE is turned on, Program mode is automatically selected. You can set a MIDI 
channel and program to be automatically selected in Program mode when the PC3LE is turned 
on. Follow these steps to set the start-up MIDI channel and program:

1.

First enter Program mode (if you are not in Program mode, press the 

Exit

 button to the right of the 

display until you see 

ProgramMode

 in the top left of the display.) 

2.

Once in program mode, use the 

Chan/Zone

 buttons (to the left of the display) to select the start-up 

MIDI channel. The current MIDI channel is displayed in the top right of the display. 

3.

Next, select the start up program by using the Alpha Wheel, cursor buttons, - / + buttons, Category 
buttons, or press the Category 

Shift

 button to use the Category buttons as an alphanumeric pad and 

enter a program ID#. 

4.

Next, press the 

Master 

Mode button (grouped with the Mode buttons to the left of the display) to 

enter Master mode.

5.

Once in Master Mode, press the 

Exit 

button (to the left of the display) to return to Program mode. 

The next time

 

you turn on the PC3LE, the MIDI channel and program you chose will be selected. 

Note: 

The PC3LE sets the currently selected MIDI channel and program as the start-up channel 

and program whenever you exit Master mode. Because of this, you may accidentally overwrite 
these settings when using master mode. If this happens, just repeat the above steps.

Note: 

When you set the start-up channel and program, the PC3LE’s other 15 MIDI channels also 

remember their currently selected program. Before following the steps above, you could set a 
program on each channel, so that each channel will have a specific program upon startup. This 
could be useful if you are triggering the PC3LE from an external sequencer and want to use a 
default program for each channel. As described in the above note, use caution because these 
settings can be accidentally overwritten when using Master mode. You can also save these 
settings as an external file (called a Master Table file,) which can be used as a backup of your 
settings, or you could load a different Master Table file for each song. See 

Saving Master Table 

Files

 for details. If you use Master Table files for storing song setups, you may want to read 

about Song Mode, which can also be triggered from an external sequencer and has some 
advantages over Program Mode (see Chapter 10, Song Mode and the Song Editor.)

Picking Favorite Programs For Each Category

You can select a favorite program within each category that will be automatically recalled when 
you press that category’s 

Category 

button. Follow these steps to set a favorite program: 

1.

First enter Program mode (if you are not in Program mode, press the 

Exit

 button to the right of the 

display until you see 

ProgramMode

 in the top left of the display.) 

2.

In Program mode, select a category by pressing one of the 

Category 

buttons to the right of the 

Alpha Wheel. (First make sure the category 

Shift 

button is not lit, if it is, press it to unlight it before 

selecting a category.) 

3.

Next, find your favorite program in the current category by using the Alpha wheel, - / + buttons, or 
up/down cursor buttons. (Alternatively, you can find the program by pressing the category 

Shift 

button and using the numbered category buttons to enter the program’s ID number, then press the
