16 Remote control This chapter explains how you can use MIDI or GPI to control the PM5D's parameters from an external device, or conversely how you can use the PM5D to control external devices. MIDI on the PM5D The PM5D can use MIDI to perform the following operations. • Program Change transmission and reception When you execute a specific event (scene/effect library recall) on the PM5D, a program change message of the corresponding number can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, the corresponding events can be executed when program change messages are received from an external device. • Control Change transmission and reception When you execute a specific event (fader/encoder or key operation) on the PM5D, a control change message of the corresponding number can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, events can be executed when control change messages are received from an external device. This capability can be used to record fader and key operations on a MIDI sequencer or other external device, and play back this data later. System exclusive messages can also be used to transmit or receive bulk data (scene or library content) or parameters. • MIDI Remote function You can assign MIDI messages to the controls of the INPUT/ST IN channel strip, and transmit those MIDI messages by operating the controls. This capability can be used for remote control of external MIDI devices such as synthesizers, or to control the parameters of DAW software or a HDR unit. • MIDI Event transmission MIDI messages can be registered independently for each scene in scene memory, and transmitted when that scene is recalled. Note For each of the above functions, the MIDI port used to transmit/receive MIDI messages can be selected from the rear panel MIDI IN/OUT connectors, the rear panel USB connector, and an I/O card installed in slots 1 through 4. (If the USB connector or an I/O card is selected, you can additionally choose from ports 1 through 8.) However, MIDI Event transmission is fixed at the MIDI OUT connector. Using program changes to control events The PM5D lets you assign specific events (scene recall / effect library recall) to each MIDI program number, so that the correspondingly-numbered program change message will be transmitted to an external device when you execute that event on the PM5D. Conversely, the corresponding event can be executed when a program change message is received from an external device. 1 Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the external device to the PM5D's MIDI IN connector. Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the PM5D to the MIDI IN connector of the external device. 2 In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the [MIDI/REMOTE] key several times to access the MIDI PGM CHANGE screen shown below.

Remote control
This chapter explains how you can use MIDI or GPI to control the PM5D’s parameters from an
external device, or conversely how you can use the PM5D to control external devices.
MIDI on the PM5D
The PM5D can use MIDI to perform the following operations.
Program Change transmission and reception
When you execute a specific event (scene/effect library
recall) on the PM5D, a program change message of the
corresponding number can be transmitted to an exter-
nal device. Conversely, the corresponding events can be
executed when program change messages are received
from an external device.
Control Change transmission and reception
When you execute a specific event (fader/encoder or
key operation) on the PM5D, a control change mes-
sage of the corresponding number can be transmitted
to an external device. Conversely, events can be exe-
cuted when control change messages are received from
an external device. This capability can be used to
record fader and key operations on a MIDI sequencer
or other external device, and play back this data later.
System exclusive messages can also be used to transmit
or receive bulk data (scene or library content) or
parameters.
MIDI Remote function
You can assign MIDI messages to the controls of the
INPUT/ST IN channel strip, and transmit those MIDI
messages by operating the controls. This capability can
be used for remote control of external MIDI devices
such as synthesizers, or to control the parameters of
DAW software or a HDR unit.
MIDI Event transmission
MIDI messages can be registered independently for
each scene in scene memory, and transmitted when
that scene is recalled.
Note
For each of the above functions, the MIDI port used to trans-
mit/receive MIDI messages can be selected from the rear
panel MIDI IN/OUT connectors, the rear panel USB connec-
tor, and an I/O card installed in slots 1 through 4. (If the USB
connector or an I/O card is selected, you can additionally
choose from ports 1 through 8.) However, MIDI Event trans-
mission is fixed at the MIDI OUT connector.
Using program changes to control events
The PM5D lets you assign specific events (scene recall / effect library recall) to each MIDI program number, so that the corre-
spondingly-numbered program change message will be transmitted to an external device when you execute that event on the
PM5D. Conversely, the corresponding event can be executed when a program change message is received from an external
device.

Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the exter-
nal device to the PM5D’s MIDI IN connector.
Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the PM5D
to the MIDI IN connector of the external
device.
2
In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the
[MIDI/REMOTE] key several times to access the
MIDI PGM CHANGE screen shown below.
In the MIDI PGM CHANGE screen you can assign
events to each program number, select the port at
which MIDI messages will be transmitted and received,
and select how program changes will be transmitted
and received.
