USEFUL TERMINOLOGY
PRESET: a group of numbers that are transmitted to MIDI devices to eect changes in the
way the MIDI devices operate. A PRESET in the PDS-3500 consists of: a BANK number, a PRESET num-
ber, a MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE number, a MIDI CHANNEL number, and an optional PEDAL STATUS
number.
BANK: a group of up to 31 presets. Access to the number of presets in a BANK may be limited
by the use of the END-OF- BANK or the END-OF-PROGRAM markers.
END-OF-BANK marker: The use of the END-OF-BANK marker ("Eb") in a preset limits the access
to presets to those which precede the marker. When the END-OF-BANK marker is encountered, the
PDS-3500 resets the preset number back to “0" within that bank.
END-OF-PROGRAM marker: The use of the END-OF-PROGRAM marker ("EP") limits the access
to those presets and banks which precede the marker. When the END-OF-PROGRAM marker is en-
countered in a BANK, the PDS-3500 resets the PRESET number back to "0" within the BANK. When the
END-OF-PROGRAM marker is encountered when advancing BANK numbers, the PDS-3500 resets the
BANK number back to BANK number “1”.
PROGRAM: a group of up to 63 banks. Access to the number of BANKS may be limited to
those BANK numbers which precede the END-OF-PROGRAM marker.
