PROGRAM CHANGE MESSAGES

A Program Change, often referred to as a Patch Change, is a MIDI
message used for sending data to devices to cause them to
change to a new program. This allows you to tell a hardware or
software device which sound to play. For example, if your
ControlPad is controlling a rock drum kit on your DAW or an
external device, using a Program Change command allows you to
easily switch to an electronic kit. Program Change messages also
give you the freedom to re-orchestrate MIDI content without
having to redo any MIDI note information.
Each kit on the ControlPad can have an associated Program
Change message (0-127). This means that, effectively, you can
have each kit on the ControlPad address a different set of
sounds on your DAW or external MIDI device. By default, each
kit on the ControlPad is set to "---". A Program Change
message of "---" means that no Program Change message will be
sent when the kit is loaded.
How to set a Program Change message :
1. Press the function button until the LED next to Program
Change message turns on.
2. Select the desired Program Change message using the
buttons. The Program Change message will be sent
automatically and will affect only that kit.
3. Every time you load the kit thereafter, the selected Program
Change message will be sent to your DAW or external MIDI
device.
