Making A Midi Instrument - ENSONIQ EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual

EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual
After setting up these parameters, save the bank, giving it a name that describes
the set-up. Once this is done, whenever you load the bank, each track with MIDI
or BOTH status will send the appropriate program changes, volumes, etc. to the
receiving instruments on its MIDI channel (tracks with LOCAL status will set up
with correct parameters as well).

The EPS-16 PLUS' Smart Transmit function also allows you to retransmit (and
in some cases alter) the type of pressure a track receives, using the Pressure
parameter. The chart below shows the relationship between type of pressure
received, track pressure type (PRESSURE MODE parameter setting on the
EDIT/Instrument page), and the type retransmitted:
