Power to the various devices should be turned on in the appropriate order: • First, switch on the units from which MIDI messages will originate (here, the PC-300). The PC~300’s POWER indicator lights. Note: If the PC-300 is powered using the ACA series adapter, set the POWER switch to the “ON (DC IN)” position. If it is connected to a USB port, set the POWER switch to the “ON (USB)n position. In that case, there is no need for the adapter. • Next, switch on the sound module, then the audio reproduction equipment. 2. Power off your system in the reverse order. Note: This unit is equipped with a circuitry protection feature. A brief interval after power up is required before the unit will operate normally. 10 Owner's Manual Setting the MIDI transmit channel To control the sound module, set the PC-300’s MIDI channel to the same channel on which the module is receiving. If the sound module is multitimbral, set the channel on the PC-300 so it matches the MIDI channel of the modules Part that you wish to control. [Procedure] 1. Press MIDI/SELECT [3] (the LED will light). 2. Select the MIDI channel by pressing one of the MIDI CHANNELS keys [6]. 3. Press MIDI/SELECT [3] again (the LED will go out). Selecting sounds Program Change/Bank Select messages are used for changing Tones for an instrument Part, and for changing Drum Sets for the Drum Part (MIDI channel 10). Changing sounds in a GS sound module To change Tones in a GS module, you need to send Bank Select messages using control changes CC00 (called “H” here) and CC32 (called “L”), followed by the desired Program Number (PC). The desired sound bank needs to be specified using both an “H” and an UL” value. Be aware that only sending these two messages is not enough for selecting another sound. You also need to transmit a Program Change number. On the PC-300, these three messages are always sent as one set: • Value of control change CC00 (“H”); • Value of control change CC32 (“L”); • Program Number. Note: You can refer to the GS/GM sound group list printed on the upper-right part of the PC-300’s panel when specifying a Prog...
