Digital Control Section Program Change The PM5000 employs a number of "strategies" to ensure full functionality with the standard MIDI implementation. For example, in order to be able to handle recall of all 1,000 PM5000 scenes via MIDI program change commands, bank select commands (a type of control change command) are used in conjunction with the program change messages in the same way that they are used in many synthesizers and tone modules. The parameters described below can be used to create a "program change table" that specifies which scene numbers will be recalled by which MIDI bank and program change numbers. The reverse is true, too: when a scene is recalled via the PM5000 controls the corresponding bank and program change numbers can be transmitted to an external MIDI device. MIDI Channel/ Bank No. 1 1 1 1 : 1 2 2 : 2 3 : 3 : 8 8 : 16 : 16 Program No. 1 2 3 4 : 128 1 2 : 128 1 : 128 : 94 95 : 1 : 128 Scene No. 10 11 12 13 : 137 138 139 : 265 266 : 393 : 999 NO ASSIGN : NO ASSIGN : NO ASSIGN 03: 123: 393 In order to provide the most flexible operation with external MIDI devices, the PM5000 provides two MIDI program change modes: SINGLE and MULTI. Sixteen MIDI channels (1 through 16) are available for transmission and reception of MIDI commands, and in large MIDI setups it is common to assign a different channel number to each MIDI device so that programs can be recalled independently on each device. Also part of the standard MIDI implementation is an "OMNI" mode which, when enabled, allows commands to be received on any or all 16 MIDI channels. When the OMNI mode is disable MIDI commands can only be received via the device's specified MIDI channel(s). The PM5000 takes advantage of this situation in the SINGLE mode, using four combinations of bank select number, OMNI ON/OFF status, and a separately specifiable MIDI receive channel to specify how the program change table will be used for scene recall. MIDI MODE OMNI OFF ON SINGLE OFF ON MULTI - BANK OFF OFF ON ON - MIDI Channel RX CH 1~16 RX CH 1~16 1~16 Receive Bank number referred to in table Same number as RX CH Same number as RX CH Received bank number Received bank number Same as received MIDI channel Maximum Selectable Scenes 128 128 1000 1000 1000 Transmit MIDI Channel Bank number referred to in table Transmit/Receive Messages Bank Select Program Change TX CH 1 - 1~128 TX CH TX CH TX CH 1 Bank number corresponding to selected scene Bank number corresponding to selected scene Smallest bank number corresponding - to selected scene 1~16 1~16 - 1~128 1~128 1~128 1~128 (Smallest program number corresponding to selected scene) 78
