IfyourPC3Kisalreadyinthememorybankyouwanttouse,youcansenditsinglePCHsfrom
0to127,toselectprogramswithinthatmemorybank.ThePC3K’sresponsedependsonthe
settingfortheBank/SelectparameterontheMIDIModeRECVpage.Ifyouwantto

memorybank,thePC3KmustreceiveeitheranMC0or32messagewithvalue0–127.Thenext
PCHintherange0–127willselectthecorrespondinglynumberedprograminthenewly
selectedbank.Thefollowingtableofexamplesshouldhelpmakeitclear.

UsingthissettingissimilartousingtheExtendedprogramchangeformat,butitgoesonestep
further.Incomingprogramchangecommandsareinterpretedjustastheyareinthenormal
Extendedformat.Buttheresultingprogramchangenumber,insteadofselectingaprogram,
selectsaQuickAccessbankentry(you
mustbeinQuickAccessmodeforthistowork).There
aretwoadvantagestousingthisformat.First,itallowsyoutoselectbothprogramsandsetups
usingprogramchangecommands,withouthavingtoswitchbetweenProgra mandSetup
modes.Second,youcanremapincomingprogramchangecommandsto
selectprogramsor
setupswithdifferentIDs.Thisishandyifthesendingunitcan’tsendprogramchange
commandshigherthan127.
First,abriefreviewofQuickAccessbankstructure.EachQuickAccessbankcanstoreten
entries,eachofwhichcanbeaprogramorasetup.Eachof
thePC3K’s10memorybankscan
store20QuickAccessbanks(excepttheZerosbank,whichcanstore75).Thereforewhenyou’ re
inQuickAccessmode,youhaveaccessto200(or750intheZerosbank)programsorsetups
withoutleavingthecurrentlyselectedmemorybank.TheQAExtprogram
changeformatlets
youselectanyoneofthoseprogramsorsetupsviaMIDI.Ifyouselectanothermemorybank,
youhaveadifferentsetof200programsandsetupsatyourdisposal.Whenyou’ reusingthis
format,thePC3KwillrespondtoMC0or32messagesforselecting
QAbanks,andtoPCHsfor
selectingentrieswithinthecurrentbank.PCHsselectentriesaccordingtotheir“chronological”
listingwithintheQAbank(notaccordingtotheirIDs).
DependingontheQAbankentryyouwanttoselect,you’llsendthePC3KeitheraPCH(value0
to127),or
aMIDIController0or32message(value0to127)followedbyaPCH.Sendinga
singlecommandwillletyouselectfromarangeof10QAbanksandselectanentrywithinthat
bank(seethetablebelow).ToselectadifferentrangeofQAbanks,sendan
MC0or32message
followedbyaPCH.
