To Assign Program Change Commands:
1. Find the PRGMCHG-A page in Edit Mode
(See “Navigating the Display in Edit Mode” above).
2. Select the Device you want to send Program Changes to via the
Switches 1 thru 8. The Display will show the switch number, and
the respective switch LED will be lit blue.If you have previously
titled your device, its name will appear in the display as well.
3. Press the ENTER/UNDO switch to underscore the editable field
for Program (Program:xxx)and use the Bank Up/
Down(+/-)switches to select the 3 digit Program Change #
(000-127), or use direct number entry with the 10 numbered
switches, and always use leading zeros. The Program Change
command is sent immediately and you should see the change
on the target device. If you want to start over, press the CLEAR/
EDIT switch.Once you see the number you want, press the
ENTER/UNDO switch to store the change. The block cursor will
now be displayed,allowing you to leave the field or page.
4. Repeat #2 and #3 for each Device.
5. Use the same procedure as above to set the Bank # if used.
Before assigning midi Program Changes to various RST Preset A’s you may want to set up your Devices from the
Device (DEV) Edit Page.
Follow typical Edit Mode navigation procedures to get to the DEV page:
1. Use the 8x numbered switches to select the Device you want to set up. The selected switch LED will be light blue and the
display will indicate the Device selected.
2. Select the Device editable field and title the selected device if you wish using the title edit procedure. (See below).
3. Select and edit the midi channel for the device.
4. Select and edit Bank Type if necessary. Consult the target device manual to see if midi Banking is necessary. If you are
uncertain about this, leave BType set to None (Default).
To send Midi Program Changes from the RST, start from the Bank/Preset you want to send from
BEFORE entering Edit Mode. You can leave the Edit Page parked at PRGMCHG-A to facilitate
easy editing of Program Changes for each Bank/Preset
A Preset (A or B) in the RST is a user defined switch function that is usually part of a mutually exclusive (one at a time) group
which allows several midi events to occur simultaneously. When you select a Preset A (or B) switch on an RST, multiple
commands are sent. Typically, it is a series of cc commands depending on the combination of DAC and VCA states you have
stored in that Preset, along with controller Pedal data from up to 4x cc pedals. In addition,the RST is capable of sending up to 8
midi Program Change commands on 8 separate midi channels, per Preset A (or B) selection.
Now is a good time to mention Preset B.
Preset B is a user assigned set of switches (or even just 1x switch) that can be used as a GLOBAL independent midi Program
changer, with its own set of up to 8 fully programmable unique cc commands that can be sent as well. It shares the same
Midi Program change Device setups as Preset A, but works independently with regard to Program changes sent. And a Preset B
assigned switch also has the unique ability to send multiple cc commands (up to 8) from 1x switch, when “Global B” is set to
“y” on the USER Edit Page. See User Guide for more on Preset B.
RST Banks,Presets and Midi Program Change Commands
The RST has 200 Banks for storing Presets no matter how many Preset A switches you choose to assign. You select Banks via
The Bank Up/Down Switches (+/-) You can individually step or scroll thru the Bank selections. You can also limit the number of
Banks you have access to, and Preview the Bank selection as well. Previewing is handy when you don’t want to hear immediate
selection of Bank/Presets, which can cause extraneous noises if sending many program changes. Previewing also allows you to
see the upcoming Bank/Preset title prior to selecting it. Bank editing is done via the BANK Edit Page using the typical editing
procedures.
There is also a GLOBAL (Preset A and B) setting which allows de-selecting any currently active Preset, and will put you into the
Global Preset,which is actually a preset with all the capability of regular Presets (A or B) but is the same in all Banks. When
selected, “GLOBAL” will be visible in the display. This mode is assignable from the USER Page in Edit Mode.
“All Direct” Mode
Another cool feature is when NO Preset A switches are assigned.In this mode, you still have 200 preset combinations accessible
via Bank selection. Every Bank is a single Preset with all the functionality of typical Presets (A or B). If Bank Preview is off you
directly select with the BANK UP/DOWN switches, and if Bank Preview is on, you scroll between Bank “Presets” and select with
the DIRECT switch.These “Presets” have their own unique memory locations so you can always add or delete Preset A’s at any
time and not lose Preset settings in either mode.
