Press MIDI/SELECT [3] again (the LED

Now, when you move the DATA ENTRY
slider, Channel Aftertouch messages (with
a value reflecting the sliders position) will

Note: A GS sound module only responds to
Aftertouch messages if you change its default
setting. Computer users should consult the
owners manual of their software, since it may
be possible to assign Channel Aftertouch to the
desired function (volume, pitch, filter) from
within the software.
Changing the velocity
sensitivity
Whenever a key is pressed, the PC-300 not
only transmits the corresponding note
number but also a value describing how
hard you pressed the key. The VELOCITY
function allows you to set the range of
transmitted velocity messages.

Set the MIDI transmit channel to
match that of the Part or module you
wish to control.

light).

velocity sensitivity value. With the slider at
its maximum, velocity values within the
entire 1~127 range can be transmitted.

depth for the Part or module you are con-
trolling, and thus to specify how much

General MIDI module, the relevant parameter
may not correctly respond to CC91 messages.
