Bank Changes
Bank LSB and Bank MSB messages are used to access additional banks of presets on virtual
instruments, MIDI sound modules, etc. (if available).
Note: A Bank LSB or Bank MSB number may not have any effect until you send a program
change message after it. See Program Change to learn how to do this.
To set a Bank LSB or Bank MSB number:
1. Press Edit to enter Edit Mode. The Edit button will light up.
2. Press the Bank LSB or Bank MSB key. The display will show LSB or MSB and the LSB
or MSB number.
3. Use the numeric keys (0–9) to enter the exact LSB or MSB number (000–127).
Alternatively, use the Preset Down/Up () buttons to enter the desired LSB or MSB
number (000–127) (please note that this will send a Bank LSB or Bank MSB message with
each button press).
4. Press the Enter key.
To cancel your changes instead, press Edit. You will exit Edit Mode without saving anything.
Zone Bank Change
Zone Bank Change messages are sent on the channel(s) of active zones, thus accessing
additional banks of instrument sound presets (if available) for each zone. Each bank change
consists of an LSB number (Least Signficant Byte) and an MSB number (Most Significant
Byte). These bank change messages are stored in each preset, ensuring that each zone
selects the correct instrument whenever you load a preset.
Note: A Bank LSB or Bank MSB number may not have any effect until you send a program
change message after it. See Program Change to learn how to do this.
To set the zone bank change:
1. Press and hold Zone for 1 second to enter Zone Edit Mode. The active Zone Buttons 1–4
will flash.
2. Press one of Zone Buttons 1–4 to edit that zone. Alternatively, you can press multiple
Zone Buttons 1–4 to edit those zones simultaneously.
3. Press and hold Shift, and then press the Bank LSB or Bank MSB key. The display will
show LSB or MSB and the LSB or MSB number.
4. Enter the desired LSB or MSB number by doing one of the following:
• While holding Shift, use the numeric keys (0–9) to enter an LSB or MSB number (000–
127).
• Use the Preset Down/Up () buttons to select an LSB or MSB number (000–127)
(please note that this will send a Bank LSB or Bank MSB message with each button
press).
5. While holding Shift, press the Enter key.
6. To set the bank change for another zone, repeat Steps 2–5.
To exit Zone Edit Mode, press Zone.
