MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE MESSAGES
Presets saved within the HOG2 can be loaded using an external MIDI device through MIDI Program Change messages. The MIDI Program
Change messages must be set to the same channel that the HOG2 is set to or the HOG2 must be set to OMNI ON mode. The number of the
program change message will correspond to the preset that it loads. For example to load preset 6, send MIDI Program Change #6.
MIDI PITCH BEND MESSAGES
You can modulate any of the Expression Modes using MIDI Pitch Bend. If the HOG2 is set to OCTAVE BEND, for example, you will hear the
HOG2 bending notes in the same way as you would on a keyboard.
MIDI CHANNELS
The HOG2 can be set to any of the 16 MIDI channels or you can enable OMNI ON so that the HOG2 accepts messages on all MIDI chan-
nels. The factory default is set to Channel 1 / OMNI OFF.
Displaying the Current MIDI Channel
The MIDI channel is displayed during a special start up sequence:
1. While power is off, press and hold the EXP. Footswitch.
2. Continue to hold down the EXP. Footswitch while applying
power and during the next step.
3. Upon applying power, the VOLUME LED should light up for
approximately three seconds. After the VOLUME LED shuts
off, the HOG2 displays the current MIDI channel setting. The
MIDI channel is displayed in binary; please see the table to
the right to determine the HOG2’s MIDI Channel setting.
Please Note: when the HOG2 is set to Channel 1, no LEDs in
the EXP. MODE semi-circle will be lit.
4. Release the EXP. Footswitch to exit the MIDI Channel display
and use the HOG2 normally.
Changing the MIDI Channel
The MIDI Channel can be changed during a special start up sequence similar to the procedure for displaying the MIDI Channel:
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 above for displaying the MIDI Channel.
2. While continuing to hold down the EXP. Footswitch, press and release the EXP. MODE button to cycle through the 16 MIDI
Channels. Follow the table above to determine the LED pattern needed for the MIDI Channel setting you require.
3. Release the EXP. Footswitch to save the new MIDI Channel setting and use the HOG2 normally. The MIDI Channel setting is
saved during power cycles.
Factory Reset
The following procedure resets the HOG2 to its factory settings. It will set the MIDI channel to its default setting (Channel 1) and overwrite
all presets to their original factory settings:
1. While power is off, press and hold both the BYPASS and EXP. Footswitches.
2. Continue to hold down both footswitches while applying power and during the next step.
3. After applying power, continue to hold down the footswitches until you see all of the LEDs start to blink.
4. Release the footswitches. The HOG2 is now restored to factory settings. You can now use the HOG2
