MIDI Control/Program change message

The following are the MIDI Control Change messages accepted by the 2488MKII to control different settings. When used with an external sequencer, this provides a certain degree of automation for mixing, etc.

Mixer Control Change parameters

The Bank Select controller is used with channel 15 to choose which group of eight channels or inputs are affect- ed. It is therefore necessary to send a MIDI message of BE 00 XX (where XX selects the group of eight channels or inputs) before sending the Control Change messages on the appropriate MIDI channel.

Bank 0: Mixer channels 1 though 8

Bank 1: Mixer channels 9 through 16

Bank 2: Mixer channels 17 through 24

Bank 3: Inputs A through H

Once the group has been selected, use MIDI channels 1 through 8 to control the mixer channels or inputs or MIDI channel 16 for the stereo master or send master).
