Program Change Formats - Kurzweil K2600 - MUSICIANS GUIDE REV A PART NUMBER 910330 CHAP 10 Manual

Volume
This sets the volume for any program assigned to the currently selected channel. A value of 0 is
silence, and a value of 127 is full volume. The value of this parameter will change in response to
MIDI Volume (MIDI 07) messages, unless the VolLock parameter (described below) is set to On.
Output Pair (OutPair)
This parameter sets the audio output group for the program assigned to the currently selected
channel. The default value of Prog means that the output group is determined by the programÕs
value for the Pair parameter on the OUTPUT page in the Program Editor. In this case, the
channelÕs output group changes depending on the program assigned to it, with the output
group being routed on a per layer basis within the program. Values of KDFX-A, KDFX-B,
KDFX-C, or KDFX-D Þx the output group regardless of the program thatÕs assigned to the
channel.
Output Gain (OutGain)
OutGain boosts or cuts the level at the audio outputs for any program assigned to the currently
selected channel. This allows you to make a program louder or softer without having to edit the
program.
Program Lock, Pan Lock, Volume Lock
When the parameter locks are set to On, the three parameters they control do not respond to
their respective MIDI controller messages. In that case, you could change the Program, Pan, and
Volume settings from the front panel, but not via MIDI.

Program Change Formats

The K2600 can store more programs than the MIDI program change speciÞcation can handle
(MIDI lets you send program change numbers from 0 to 127 or 1 to 128 only). So weÕve designed
a system that makes program selection more ßexible. This is true whether youÕre selecting
programs from the K2600Õs front panel, or via MIDI.

First of all, the K2600Õs programs (and all of its objects) are numbered and grouped according to
a decimal system, that is, in multiples of ten. This is much easier to keep track of than the binary-
oriented groupings of many synths, which feature banks of 8, 16, or 64 programs.
For Use With:
Other K2600s (or K2500s or K2000s) similarly set, plus all other
instruments that use the Bank Change controller

Older MIDI devices that transmit program change commands in the
range from 0–127 only.
