TRIGGER KEYS (KEYTRG)
The TRIGGER KEYS page (see below) allows you to set a controller destination to be triggered
by playing a specific key.
In addition to generating a standard MIDI note on message, each key of the PC3 can be set to
trigger a controller destination. TRIGGER KEYS can be set independently per Zone. By using
Zones with overlapping key ranges, a single key can trigger multiple controller destinations. On
the TRIGGER KEYS page, select the Key field and choose a note by holding the Enter button
and playing the desired key (you can also use the Alpha Wheel, ‐/+ buttons or alphanumeric pad
to choose a note.) With the desired note selected, use the Dest field to select a controller
destination (see The Controller Destination List in The PC3 Musician's Guide for details.) Set a
value to send to the controller destination with the Value field. Once a destination and value are
set, the playing the key will send the value to the controller destination on the Zone's MIDI
Channel (see Channel on page 7‐7 of The PC3 Musician's Guide for details on setting each Zone's
MIDI channel.) This may also send a continuous controller message to the MIDI or USB out
ports, depending on the Zone's Destination parameter (see Destination on page 7‐8 of The PC3
Musician's Guide for details.)
