■ What is an instrument definition?
An instrument definition is a file that contains settings describing the banks, patches,
and controllers of a MIDI sound module. If you don’t use an instrument definition,
SONAR LE will display bank select, program change, control change, and NRPN
values in numerical form. If you specify the appropriate instrument definition, the
bank names, patch names, controller names, and NRPN functions specific to the PC-
80 will be displayed by name.
