Additional Programs
One of the biggest new features for Version 2.0 is an additional bank of 128 programs. these
programs are in Bank 6, which is called Int2. There’s a list of the new programs on page 14, and
a list of the physical controller assignments beginning on page 15.
There are several ways to select programs in Bank 6:
• Press the Internal and User Sound Source buttons simultaneously, then use the Alpha
Wheel or the Plus or Minus button to scroll through the programs.
• Press 6 , +/- , then a program number on the alphanumeric buttonpad. For example, if you’re
in Bank 0, select Program 036 in Bank 6 by pressing 6 , +/- , 3 , 6 , Enter.
• Scroll directly to Bank 6 from Bank 4 or Bank 0, using the Alpha Wheel or the Plus or Minus
button.
Changes to MIDI Receive Mode
Overview
MIDI Receive mode has been redesigned significantly for Version 2. It’s now more of an
independent mode, which doesn’t change its function, except that you can’t press Cancel to exit.
MIDI Receive mode is convenient when your PC2 is a slave to an external MIDI source, like a
sequencer. It gives you quick access to all 16 MIDI channels, where you can set values for eight
parameters on each channel.
Press MIDI Recv to enter MIDI receive mode. Use the cursor buttons to scroll through the four
pages that contain the MIDI-Receive-mode parameters:
Press MIDI Recv (or Cancel ) to jump to the first page for the current channel. Press it again to
jump to the first page for the next channel. Press the Left and Right cursor buttons
simultaneously to jump to the corresponding page for the next channel. For example, if you’re on
Page 3 for Channel 1, pressing the cursor buttons simultaneously jumps to Page 3 for Channel 2.
You can also jump to the first page for any channel by holding MIDI Recv and pressing the
numbered Sound Select button corresponding to the channel you want to view.
