Program Numbers and Other Ways of Selecting Voices
Internal Voices can also be called up using an external sequencer or controller that sends MIDI
Program Change commands. The MIDI program number for the selected Internal Voice is
shown in the bottom line of the display. There are several ways to display the program
numbers, which will be discussed in the next chapter, but the default is to refer to them by the
numbers 0-127.
You can also select voices using the numeric keypad, and the program numbers are important
here as well. Type in the program number you wish to select (either 1, 2, or 3 digits Ñ you donÕt
have to use leading zeroes), and press Enter . The program you selected will appear in the
display. If you make a mistake, press Clear and the numbers will reset, or if you decide you
donÕt want to change voices after all, press Cancel . One more way of selecting voices is with the
Alpha wheel. Turning it clockwise increments the current voice, and turning it counter-
clockwise decrements it. The increment/decrement (
+ and - ) buttons are also operational.
The table below summarizes the PC88Õs Internal Voices, showing the four groups available
from each front panel button. Use Previous Group and Next Group to move between groups.
