Playing (Play mode)
You can select sounds on your sound module from the PCR by transmitting Program
Changes.
To select sounds in a different bank, you must first use Bank mode to transmit a Bank
Select message to switch the bank. Then transmit a Program Change message.
The bank select message must be transmitted before the program change.
Here’s how to transmit a program change message on the current channel (p. 33).

Selecting sounds (Program Change/Bank)
Program Change and Bank Select
MIDI allows you to combine program change and bank select messages to access
more than 128 sounds.
If you want to select a different sound within the same bank as the currently selected
sound, you can switch sounds simply by sending a program change message alone.
If you want to select a sound from a different bank, you’ll need to send the
appropriate bank number and program number. The bank number is sent using two
MIDI messages; control change 0 (MSB) and control change 32 (LSB). To make the
sound actually change, you must send messages in the order of the bank number
(MSB), the bank number (LSB), and finally the program number.
Program Change
You can also send a program change in the following way.
1. Press the [EDIT] button so it’s lit.
The display will indicate “EDIT.”
2. Press the [PROGRAM CHANGE] button. It will light, and the display will
indicate the program change number that was transmitted most recently.
3. Use controllers [A1]–[A8], [B1]–[B8], or the VALUE knob to specify the
program change number that you want to send.
4. Press the [ENTER] button.
