(4) Press the [WRITE] button to confirm your setting.

Transmitting Program Change
numbers
The AX-Synth automatically transmits the Program
Change numbers of the sounds you select in the TONE
section. The messages sent in this way also include the
Bank Select address (CC00 and CC32). See the “Tone list”
on p. 37.
If you want to select another sound on the receiving
MIDI instrument without changing sounds on the
AX-Synth, proceed as follows.
Note: The methods described here only allow you to transmit
Program Change messages. Bank Select messages (CC00 and
CC32) cannot be entered by hand. What you can do, however,
is first select one of the AX-Synth’s internal Tones that uses
the correct bank, and then proceed with the following.
Transmitting Program Change numbers sequen-
tially
(1) Switch on the [TX¥ON] button (it must light).
(2) Use the PGM CHANGE [INC] and [DEC] buttons to
select the number you want to transmit (1~128).
The display briefly shows the number you selected
and then reverts to the last internal Tone number you
selected.
Press [INC] to select the next number, or [DEC] to
select the previous one. You may have to press the
selected button several times to call up the sound
you need.
To scroll through the available Program Change
numbers, you can hold down either PGM CHANGE
[INC] or [DEC]. To scroll even faster, press and hold the
“other” PGM CHANGE button.
Note: Be aware that the receiving MIDI instrument will
select sounds/memories as you increase or decrease Pro-
gram Change numbers.
Entering Program Change numbers directly
To save time, you can also enter the desired Program
Change number numerically:
(1) Switch on the [TX¥ON] button (it must light).
(2) Press and hold the [SHIFT] button.
(3) Keep holding the [SHIFT] button and press the
[TX¥ON] button.
The [TX¥ON] button flashes.
(4) Keep holding the [SHIFT] button and enter the
desired Program Change number with the keys in
the highest octave (NUMERIC KEYPAD). Confirm by
pressing the highest key (ENTER).
If you entered the wrong number, you can erase it by
pressing the CANCEL key, then start again.
(5) Release the [SHIFT] button.
