UTILITY/MIDI

Program Bank Change

M3000 holds 500+100 presets. Standard MIDI Program changes range from 1-128. Therefore you must assign the incoming Program changes to one of the following banks:

ROM 1	:	1-128	RAM 1	:	1-128
ROM 2	:	129-256	RAM 2	:	129-250
ROM 3	:	257-384	Card 1	:	1-128
ROM 4	:	385-500	Card 2	:	129-250.

When set to “external”, all banks can be accessed through the use of controller 0 which acts as bank selector.

Sys-Ex ID

Sets the Sys-Ex ID number of the M3000.

Note: The M3000 is always ready to receive information via MIDI dump from an external device. Be aware of this and avoid overwriting your presets by accident.

MIDI Output

Channel

Sets the sending MIDI channel of the M3000.

Filter

Sets whether the current section of the M3000 should send out MIDI Control changes (CTRL) and MIDI Program changes (PROG) or not. e.g. when Filter is set to PROG the M3000 will only send out MIDI Program changes.

Offset

With this parameter you are able to add to or subtract from the outgoing Program change. e.g. the outgoing Program change is preset 123, and the Offset is set to +1 the outgoing Program change will now be 124.
