Playing Sounds Of The - Rodgers PR-300 Owner's Manual

Channels 11-16
When a PR-300 is connected to a Rodgers organ
with sequencing capability, channels 11-16 are
used to record and playback the organ. For this
reason, these channels should be set to "EXT".
This is accomplished by setting the "ORGAN"
switch located on the back panel of the PR-300 to
"EXT".
Please confirm that this switch is set to "EXT". If
this switch is set to "!NT", then channels 11-16 will
be used to play internal sounds of the PR-300 and
the Rodgers organ will not play.
If you do want to use channels 11-16 to play an
external MIDI keyboard or Rodgers organ, then
this switch can be set to "!NT", and channels 11-16
will be used to play internal PR-300 sounds.

When using the PR-300 to control
a Rodgers organ, this switch
should be set to "EXT".
It's time
to
show how sounds of the PR-300 can be played from
an external MIDI keyboard or Rodgers organ. As many of our
customers will be using the PR-300 with a Rodgers organ, the
following examples will show operating procedures for both the
PR-300 and a Rodgers organ.
If you are using something other than a Rodgers organ to control
the PR-300. simply use whatever operating procedures are
required for the equipment you are using to achieve the desired
result.
In the default settings described above. channels 1-9 can be used
to play any of the PR-300's 317 instruments. and channel 10 can
be used to play any of the 10 different
drum
kits inside the PR-
300.
Let's start by playing a PR-300 instrument on channell from the
Rodgers organ. (please note: LTG MIDI Phase II Organs use
MIDI channel 2 instead of MIDI channel 1 in the following
situations. If you are using an LTG MIDI Phase II organ, please
use MIDI channel 2 and Part 2 in the following examples).
(1) Cancel any organ registrations.
This insures that the organ will not generate sound
when keys or pedals are pressed.
