Program Change Events

Program Change commands typically represent a change in the MIDI voice or instrument type that should be used for a particular MIDI channel. Similar to MIDI Note commands, the MIDI data that is expected to be received is shown in the CIA and changes as you select event parameters. When finished configuring the program change event, press {OK} to store the event. Otherwise, press {Cancel} to undo the changes.

Message Structure

Program change messages have the structure CN XX, where N represents the MIDI channel number and XX represents the program number.

Options

The following options are available:

{Channel}

This should match the MIDI Channel for the note command (1-16, 0-F). If set to Any, the console will respond when any MIDI channel is sent a note command.

{Program Number}

The program number is any value between 0-127 (0-7F). Many devices will display this as 1-128 – if this is the case for your other device, subtract one from the desired program number.
