Setting Buttons to send combined Program Change, Bank LSB and Bank
MSB messages
The assignable buttons and the sustain pedal can be configured to send a multi-part message, consisting of a Program
Change, Bank LSB and Bank MSB message when pressed. This is useful for specific patch/sound selection from a
specific bank of a connected synthesizer or virtual instrument.
This requires four values to be specified (values given are examples):
The following example configures a button to send a total of 3 MIDI messages each time the button is pressed (Bank
LSB, Bank MSB and Program Change), allowing you to recall any sound in any bank of a connected software or
hardware synthesizer that supports this:
1. Select the Control as described earlier in this guide (Button or Pedal)
2. Press the Advanced button
3. Press the Control Assign key
4. Enter 145 using the number keys. This sets the button or the pedal to send a combined Bank Select/Program
Change message
5. Press the Enter key
6. Press the Advanced button
7. Press the Data 1 key
8. Enter the Program Change number, for example 42
9. Press the Enter key
10. Press the Advanced button
11. Press the Data 2 key
12. Enter the Bank LSB number, for example 8
13. Press the Enter key
14. Press the Advanced button
15. Press the Data 3 key
16. Enter the Bank MSB number, for example 32
17. Press the Enter key
See Section 10 - MIDI Messaged Defined for an in-depth explanation of how Bank LSB / Bank MSB and Program
Change messages work together to access all programs on a connected synthesizer or other MIDI device.
