Complete range of control
features
Since the keyboard provides for sound
selection that uses combinations of
Program Change and Bank Select mes-
sages (CC 00 and CC 32), you can also
select any of the Variation Tones that may
be available on a GS sound module.
In addition, a variety of continuous con-
trollers (Control Changes) can be assigned
to the DATA ENTRY slider. The slider can
then be used for controlling the desired
parameter (Reverb or Chorus Depth, for
example) of a GS sound module.

more enjoyable
The PC-300 is very compact, so it requires
only a minimal amount of desktop space.
The PC-300 is sure to become an invalu-
able part of any DTM setup, since it can
be used for real-time or step recording, as
well as for practice while listening to
"minus-one" playback.
