Programming Your PC2R
The Setup Editor

13. Press Store to display the Save dialog:
Save|Setup|129?
A01|Default|Setup
Notice that the PC2R suggests a setup ID of 129, which is the first unused setup ID in the
User bank. We’ll use that ID, but we’ll rename the setup before storing it.
14. Press the Right cursor button; the display prompts you to rename the setup. Press Yes.
15. Press Zone 3 repeatedly until you’ve erased the entire name. (This is optional; you can
also write over each existing character in turn, if you prefer. You can also press Zone 1 to
switch a letter from upper to lower case and back. Press Zone 2 to insert a space at the
cursor and move the remaining characters to the right, or press Zone 4 to move the cursor
to the end of the name.)
16. Enter a name that you can remember, because we’ll refer to it in later examples. Use the
Alpha Wheel and the cursor buttons to insert characters and move the cursor. We’ll call
this setup Piano&Strings. Refer to Naming and Storing on page 4-3 if you need a reminder
about naming objects.
17. When you’ve entered the name, press Yes. The Save prompt returns. Press Yes again to
save the setup. The display tells you that the setup is saved, the returns you to MIDI
Setups mode.
Setting Initial Volume Levels for Different Zones
Suppose you want the program in one zone of a setup to be at a lower volume than the others.
We’ll edit our two-zone setup to lower the volume of the strings.
1. Start with Setup 129 Piano&Strings, which we created in the previous example.
2. Press Edit, then press the Right cursor button until you see the Controllers menu. Press
Enter. The display probably looks like this:
Zone:2|||||||||0:064
Entry|Volume:|127
Notice that the cursor is under the “1” in “127,” indicating that this is the current
parameter. (In this case, it doesn’t really matter, since there’s only one parameter visible.
Sometimes, however, there’s more than one parameter visible, in which case you can use
the cursor buttons to move the cursor under the parameter you want to edit.)
3. Using the Alpha Wheel, change the value to 75.
4. Play a few notes. If you don’t hear a difference in the volume, press Compare and play
some more. Press Compare again to stop its LED from blinking.
5. Press Store to display the Save dialog. Notice that the display prompts you to replace
Setup 129. We don’t want to do this.
6. Turn the Alpha Wheel one click to the right; the display prompts you to save Setup 130.
7. Rename the setup as EntryVol, and save it at ID 130.
