Chapter 7
Master Mode
Press the Master mode button to enter Master mode, which contains parameters affecting the
PC3's overall performance and system setup. You can set the system Clock so that the PC3 will
time‐stamp your files correctly. You can use the Object tool to rename or delete selections of
objects. You can also enter the Boot Loader to access a number of system and file utilities, or use
Reset to delete all user objects and restore the PC3's memory to its original factory settings.
When you exit Master Mode (or MIDI Mode) the PC3 saves a Master Table (unless
MasterTableLock is On — more on this below.) The Master Table remembers the settings of the
Master pages, as well as the state of the PC3, such as which programs are assigned to each
channel, settings for MIDI Mode Transmit and Receive pages, and Master FX settings. Explicit
saving of the Master Table is also possible.
MAIN
On the Master Mode MAIN page you'll find parameters for setting the overall tuning and
transposition of the PC3, overall FX settings, drum program remapping, clock source options,
ID entry options, demo song options, as well as options for saving master mode settings and
remote triggering of PC3 functions.
