Bank (MSB4) = xxx
BANK (LSB4) = xxx
Usually, you only need to send out the first group, that is a Volume, Program, and Bank Change
commands on one MIDI channel.
If you have a trapKAT KS, you can look at the SOUND LIST in the Appendix Settings. On the top of
every list, is the BANK NUMBER, which is called up by using two sets of numbers (MSB,LSB)
A Bank is a collection of up to 127 Sounds (program changes)
In order to call up a sound on a Kit, the Bank, Program and Volume numbers on a MIDI channel must
be sent in order for the sound to change.
Pad #20 changes the values on all of these parameters. Each tap on pad 20 increments the value of the
number displayed. If you quickly release the Edit Footswitch and press down on it again quickly,
(quick-click), you can change the direction of values, decrementing instead of incrementing.
Most sound modules have a listing in the back of their manual with all of the sounds available. These
sounds will require its own MSB,LSB Bank Change and Program Change and Volume Change
Commands.
Please note that some sound modules (Kurzweil is one of them), require these parameters to be sent out
as one packet. That means that as you change one parameter at a time,you will not hear the sound
change until after you Save the Kit, leave the kit, then return to it.
If you have the trapKAT KS (with sounds) and are using the “Program Advance /Backwards” special
note numbers to scroll through the drum kits, the sound change is immediate. The trapKAT sends out
the packet automatically.
KURZWEIL SOUND CONTROL
Pad # 7 and 8
New screens have been added to the trapKAT 5KS to control the individual drum volumes in the
Kurzweil sound card as well as the ability to control the reverb and efx per kit. Step on the KIT EDIT
FOOTSWITCH and tap on pad #7. Each time you strike the pad, you will see the parameter and a
value. There are individual volume control settings for the bass, snare, toms, HiHAT, and miscellaneous
sounds, as well as a general reverb and efx setting. If the parameter is set to OFF, then the sounds
default value is sent. If a value is added, then that value overrides the default setting. To change the
default setting to a value of your liking, then tap on pad #8. Each strike on pad #8 increases the value of
the parameter.
Below are the screens in the “tunnel” on pad #7. Each time you tap on pad #7 with the Edit Footswitch
