Rodgers
C-IOO
and
C-220 Classic Keyboards™
This section will outline the procedures for creating Multi-
Track
Sequences
using
Rodgers
C-I00
or
C-220
Classic
Keyboards™. This section will also
be
of
use to people who
want to create a Multi-Track sequence with the PR-300 using
products other than those listed in previous sections
Rodgers C-lOO and C-220 Keyboards are able to use any
of
the 16 MIDI channels to control instruments in the PR-300.
As
the PR-300 is normally configured to receive on channels 1-10,
these will
be
the
channels used to control the PR-300's sounds.
The Rodgers
C-l00
and C-220 keyboards also have internal
sounds which can
be
used in Multi-Track sequences. The
C-l00
and C-220 have three different modes which allow you
to
select
the receive channels for internal sounds:

A Multi-Track Recording can use a combination
of
the PR-
300 and keyboard sounds; the MIDI channel used will determine
which instrument plays. So that instruments in the PR-3oo don't
conflict
with
instruments
in
the
C-I00/C-220,
the
receive
channels for the
C-l00/C-220
must be different than those for
the PR-300 (1-10, as stated above).
For this reason, we will put the C-l00/C-220 in MIDI Mode
1,
so its receive channels
are
1, 11, 12, 13, 14,
15
& 16. Channel
1 is the only channel which both the PR-300 and C-l00/C-220
both receive, and
we
will show you how to get around this in the
next section.
When
properly set, the PR-300 will receive
on
channels 1-10 and the C-lOO/C-220 will receive on channels
11-
16.
When building a Multi-Track recording (or using the PR-
300 in real-time with a C-lOO
or
C-220) the transmit channel you
use will determine which instrument plays.
For
instance,
if
you
want to
playa
PR-300 sound, your need to transmit on channel
between 1 and 10;
if
you want to control sounds
of
the
C-loo/C-
220 you need to transmit on channels 11-16.
Unlike Rodgers organs, it doesn't matter what sequence PR-
300 and C-l00/C-220 sounds are recorded. In other words, you
can use sounds from each instrument in any order (you
don't
have to
record
the
C-IOO/C-220 last, as with
other
Rodgers
organs).
If
the keyboard you are using doesn't have the capability to
send on different MIDI channels, see the section entitled, "When
the Send Channel Can't
be Changed
...
).
