Programming Your PC2R
Basic Editing Concepts

Entering an Edit Mode

There are four buttons that take you into the PC2R's various edit modes:
Edit
FX
MIDI Receive
Global
You can get to Effects edit mode, MIDI receive mode, or Global mode from any performance
mode; just press FX, MIDI Receive, or Global.
To edit programs or setups, you must first select the performance mode corresponding to the
object you want to edit (select KB3 mode, for example, if you want to edit a KB3 program).
When you've selected a performance mode, press Edit.
When you press Edit, you go to the first menu in the edit mode corresponding to the
performance mode you were in when you pressed Edit. You'll see one of the following displays:
Internal Voices mode
KB3 mode
MIDI Setups mode

turn the Alpha Wheel left or right to change the value.
In some cases, you can see more than one parameter at a time (for example, the global
three-band EQ is a set of three parameters in Global mode). When there's more than one
parameter visible, use the cursor buttons to move the cursor (the little flashing bar) under
the value you want to change. Then turn the Alpha Wheel to change the value.
