Kurzweil Program Changes
When you use the Kurzweil program change format, youÕll use PCH messages to select different
memory banks, followed by a second PCH command to change the program within the current
bank, as the following examples demonstrate. YouÕll want to use this format if youÕre controlling
your K2600 from a Kurzweil 1000- or 1200-series instrument.
1st Program Change

PCH: value 39

0-127 Program Change Type

You may be controlling your K2600 from an ÒoldÓ MIDI deviceÑone that was built before the
MIDI Controller 0 program change format was developed. If your MIDI controller is one of
these (if its manual doesnÕt mention MIDI Controller 0 program changes, itÕs an Òold styleÓ
machine), you might want to set the ProgChgType parameter to a value of 0Ð127. This will
enable you to select programs 0Ð127 from the controller. This limits your range of program
selection, but it conÞgures the K2600 to respond predictably to the controller. (YouÕll have to
select higher-numbered programs from the K2600Õs front panel) Of course, you could use the
Kurzweil format, but in many cases youÕll have to send two program change commands to get
the program you want.
