sendsanumberofMIDImessages,oneach of
theMIDIchannelsusedbythesetup.Someoftheseinclude:ProgramChangecommands,MIDI
BankSelectmessages,PanandVolumemessages,andentryvaluesforphysicalcontrollers

The Control Setup
Inadditiontozonesplittingandlayering,Setupmodeisapowerfulwaytotakeadvantageof
thePC3K’sprogrammablesliders,ribboncontrollers,andassignablebuttons.Inorderto
providesomeofthesameflexibilityforProgrammode,wecreatedthecontrolsetup,which
definesthecontrollerassignmentsforprogramsin
Programmode.
Thedefaultcontrolsetupis126 Internal Voices,butyoucanchooseanycontrolsetupyouwant.
Todothis,gototheMIDI‐modeTRANSMITpageanduseanynormaldataentrymethodto
changetheControlSetupparameter.WhenyoureenterProgrammode,allprogramswillnow
respondto
manyofthecontrollerassignmentsdefinedinZone1ofthecontrolsetup(Zones2–

Onceyousavechangestothecontrolsetup,thosechangeswillaffectallprogramswhenyouare
