Using an External MIDI Device to Select
Patches and Change Other Settings

Selecting Patches and Rhythm Sets

You can change Patches – including the Patches in each Part of a Performance – and
Rhythm Sets on the XV-5050 via MIDI Part.
In this example, after setting the send channel for the external MIDI device and the
XV-5050's reception channel (Patch Rx Channel) to "1," we'll send a MIDI message
from the external MIDI device to select the XV-5050 Patch "PB:018 Slap Bass 1."
1.
Use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT connector on the external
MIDI device to the XV-5050's MIDI IN connector.
2.
Press [PATCH] to make its indicator light.
3.
Set the channel used for transmission by the external MIDI device and
the XV-5050's reception channel to the same MIDI channel (see p. 19).
* A Factory Reset sets the reception channel in Patch mode to MIDI Channel 1.
4.
Send a Bank Select MSB (Control Number 0) value of "87" to the XV-
5050.
* If you want to select a Rhythm Set, send a value of "86."
5.
Next, send a Bank Select LSB (Control Number 32) value of "65."
6.
Send a Program Change with a value of "18."
The Patch name appearing in the display changes to "PB:018 Slap Bass 1."
* Each Patch or Rhythm Set has a corresponding Bank Select number and Program number,
as shown below.
