In an External MIDI Sound Module or Software

You can use the EWI5000 to send a MIDI Program Change message to a connected external MIDI sound module or to software on a connected computer. To do this, follow the same steps as described above. When you select a new Program on the EWI5000, it sends a MIDI Program Change message of the same number to your external sound module.

In order to do this properly, configure the settings described below.

2.Press the Hold Button or Interval Button to scroll through the options until PC (Program Change) appears in the display.

3.Release the Setup Button. The display will show the current mode. Use the Hold Button or Interval Button to select any of the following options:

dP (Direct Program): When this is on, you can touch the Program Button and then touch a note key assigned to a Program to send the Program Change message. (To assign Programs to the note keys, please see Using the Note Keys.) Press the Trans Button to turn it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.

Ot (Out): When this is on, the EWI5000 can send Program Change messages from its USB Port and MIDI Out. When this is off, the EWI5000 will not send any Program Change messages externally. Press the Trans Button to turn it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.

4.Press the Setup Button to return to Performance Mode.
