Page 15 looks like so:
The Nova features a “Program map” that allows any incoming MIDI Program Change command to call up any Program or
Performance from any Bank, or select a new Arpeggiator Pattern for the currently selected program. The Program Map is user pro-
grammable & is Memorised as Global. To select the Program Map send a Bank Message of 0 ( Controller 32 with a value of 0 ).
When this Bank is selected any incoming Program Changes conform to the sequence in the Program Map.
As can be seen the higher parameter is “Prog change”. In this case with a value of 002.
This parameter shows which Part of the Performance Map will be displayed / edited. Use the higher Fast Data knob to adjust this
parameter. The Performance Map allows incoming MIDI Program Change Messages to call up any sound in the Nova. This not
only allows keyboards & sequencers that do not support MIDI Bank Select Messages access to any sound via MIDI but also allows
a user “Order” of sounds to be created which can be very useful in live performance. The range of this parameter is 000 to 127.
This parameter is memorised as Global.
The Program map can be made active at all times by setting the “Incoming program change” parameter on page 13 of the Global
mode to “Program map”.
When the Nova is switched on, “the Program Change Table” is automatically active. This means that if any Program/Part receives
a Program Change Message via MIDI IN, it will reference the Performance Map until that particular Program/Part receives a valid
Bank Select Message ( Controller 32 ). This allows Master Keyboards which do not transmit Bank Select Messages to be able to
call up any Program or Performance in any Bank.
When a Program/Part receives a valid Bank Select Message ( Controller 32 ) via MIDI IN, the bank will continue to remain selected
for the Program/Part until another Bank Select Message is received via MIDI IN.
This “Map” is assigned to MIDI Bank 0( Controller 32 with a value of 0 ). If this message is received the Nova will switch from nor-
mal operation to the Performance Map. Any Program changes received after that will be re-mapped according to the Performance
Map. This can be disabled by sending another MIDI Bank Message calling up either one of the Program or Performance Banks.
See page 130 for details on the Bank Messages received by the Nova.
To write any changes to the performance map into memory press the “Write” button while this page is displayed. Also note the
“Memory Protect” has to be set to “Off” for this to be possible.
As can be seen the lower parameter is “Selects”. In this case with a value of Perf A010.
This parameter shows which sound is assigned to the selected Program Message set in the parameter above. Use the lower Fast
Data knob & the Bank button to adjust this parameter. In this case the sound assigned is Performance A010. Pressing the Bank
button while in this mode allows the selection of any of the Performance or Program Banks. Using the lower Fast Data knob allows
any sound from the selected Bank to be set. The range of this parameter is Curr, Prog A, Prog B, Perf A, Arp M, Arp P & Arp U.
This parameter is memorised as Global.
