As we mentioned in the introductory chapter (see page 14), it’s possible to become
completely lost in the open structure of MIOC Generation devices while programming
unless you are clear how each function works. The flexibility of the Remote function is a
perfect example of this.
If you are in Bank 1 and you setup a Program Change for Bank 1 within the active
Matrix Program (e.g. M!A 1) and then call up Program 2 via MIDI you reach a dead end,
because you have only set up the Program Change in Program 1! You need to set up the
Program Change for Bank 1 in Program 2 as well. Then at least you will be able to switch
between Programs 1 and 2 in this Bank. If you call up Program 3 though, you’ll be stuck
again.
A better way of using the Remote function might be to create a Program in, for
instance, Bank 57, with only one function, namely, that of enabling MIDI Remote for Bank
1. Bank 57 is a good choice because it is the first Bank in Group 8, and therefore you are
unlikely to need it for anything else. Then every Program Change received at the MIDI input
and on the MIDI channel designated in Bank 57 will change Matrix Programs in Bank 1.
You might then decide to set up direct Program Change programs for Banks 1 and
2. However, this is not really practical, because the device can allow only one active Bank
per Group. In this case the Program Change for Bank 1 would be ignored because the
higher Bank has priority. It would make more sense to set up direct Program Changes for
Bank 9 (and Banks 17, 25, 33, 41 and 49) because all these Banks are in different Groups,
and can therefore be active simultaneously. A single Program Change would activate all
these Banks, and select the same Matrix Program number within each one.
Furthermore, you could set up a Song Bank selection within the same Program in
Bank 57. Since the Song Banks (65 to 128) are all in the same Group you are allowed only
one Bank for MIDI control. If you should ever need remote access to more than the 128
Songs in a single Bank you could always use the “
Ctrl.0
“ command instead. Bank Select
commands higher than 64 will call up a Song Bank, each of which contains another 128
Songs.
6.11 Call another Matrix program with the Program (CAP)
This is a really direct function inside the Matrix. Here you can set in another Matrix program
(in another Group, of course) which will be automatically be activated with the call up of the current
Matrix Program. You may either call up a corresponding Song, or link the current Matrix Program
with another Matrix Program. The program number and name of an assigned program will be
displayed, in the other case it will show “
none
“.

If a Matrix Program calls up another Program out of the same Group (which could be
intended) you cannot call this as usuall (e.g. to change settings) because it will switch
automatically. In this case press
after the selection for about one second – the “
CAP
“
function will be suppressed.
