Program Change Formats
to call up the program within the bank (as described below). The K2661 can respond to either
the Bank Change controller or the double-program-change method. In a nutshell, the difference
between the Extended setting and the Kurzweil setting is this: In Extended, the K2661 will
receive and respond to the Bank Change controller. When set to Kurzweil, the K2661 will
receive only the double-program-change method.
Extended Program Changes
If you’re controlling your K2661 from a MIDI device that can handle the MIDI Controller 0 or 32
program-change format, you’ll have the greatest flexibility if you set the ProgChgType
parameter to a value of Extended (or QA Bank E, but that explanation comes later).
When you’re using the extended program change format, then depending on the value of the
BankSelect parameter on the RECEIVE page in MIDI mode, the K2661 will respond to either
MIDI Controller 0 or 32 program change commands for bank selection (Zeros through 900s),
and standard program change commands for program changes within the current bank.
Different values have different results, as shown in the following table:
If your K2661 is already in the memory bank you want to use, you can send it single PCHs from
0 to 99, to select programs within that memory bank. The K2661’s response depends on the
setting for the MIDIBankMode parameter on the CH/PRG page in the Setup Editor. If you want
to change the memory bank, the K2661 must receive either an MC 0 or 32 message with value
0–9. The next PCH in the range 0–99 will select the correspondingly numbered program in the
newly selected bank. The following table of examples should help make it clear.
Kurzweil Program Changes
When you use the Kurzweil program change format, you’ll use PCH messages to select different
memory banks, followed by a second PCH command to change the program within the current

selected (for example program 199 if in 100s bank)
