Wheels and/or other physical controllers. You can also control the sound from the front panel of the PC2R itself, using the four programmable knobs to the left of the display. See page 3-8 for more information about these control knobs.
Page 12: Effects
Each expansion card adds 16 megabytes of ROM sounds to the 16 megabytes of onboard ROM. Polyphony Expansion Board There’s a kit for expanding your PC2R’s polyphony from 64 voices to 128 voices. You can install this kit yourself as well. Unpacking your PC2R Your PC2R carton should contain the following: •...
Page 13: Chapter 2 Startup
Setup During operation, the PC2R must be either installed in a properly-ventilated MIDI rack, or resting on its four rubber feet on a sturdy, level surface. If not properly ventilated, the PC2R could overheat and malfunction. Figure 2-1 shows the bottom panel of the PC2R and the recommended locations for the rubber feet.
Page 14: Basic Connections
Connect the plug at the other end of the power-supply cable into a standard power outlet. If you plan to take your PC2R to a location that uses a different voltage level, you’ll need to get an additional power supply that’s compatible with the local voltage.
Page 15: Audio
MIDI information it receives on to other MIDI gear. The typical MIDI conﬁguration for the PC2R is to connect its MIDI In port to the MIDI Out port of a MIDI control source—a keyboard, an alternative controller like a wind or percussion controller, or a sequencer.
Page 16: Midi Conﬁgurations
Startup Powering Up Use the MIDI Out port and/or the programmable Thru/Out port if your PC2R is part of a more complex MIDI system. Even if your MIDI source can transmit on only one MIDI channel, you can make it more powerful with the PC2R, which can remap incoming MIDI information to four different MIDI channels, each playing a different sound.
Page 17: Display (Lcd)
Troubleshooting No Text in Display If no messages are displayed when you turn on the power on your PC2R and no LEDs ﬂash, check the power adapter connections at the AC outlet and the PC2R Adapter In jack. Low Battery When you turn your PC2R off, a lithium battery protects the memory that the PC2R uses to store user-deﬁned programs and setups, and other editing changes that you’ve saved.
Page 18: No Sound
Your MIDI connection may not be functioning: check that you have a MIDI cable connected from the MIDI Out port of your MIDI source to the MIDI In port of the PC2R. The LED in the MIDI Receive button blinks when the PC2R receives MIDI information.
Page 19: Changing Sounds
See page 2-5 to learn how to play the demo sequences. Also In This Chapter Chapter 3 shows you how to get the most out of your PC2R in performance. The overview introduces a few important features and concepts, while the remaining sections provide more detail.
Page 20: Overview
MIDI Setups Mode (Setups) MIDI Setups mode is what makes the PC2R such a ﬂexible MIDI rack unit. In this mode you play setups instead of programs. Each setup can play up to four different programs, each on its...

Panel. In this case, you can still get directly to Effects edit mode by pressing the FX button, but Effects edit mode controls the effects for the entire PC2R, not just the current program or setup.
Page 22: Effects
There’s more about the display beginning on page 3-5. In addition to the display, there are three main regions on the PC2R’s front panel. These regions are labeled in orange at the top of the front panel: Performance As the label suggests, you’ll use the buttons and knobs in this region...
Page 23: Color-Coded Labeling
000|Stereo Grand| Program ID and name This is Internal Voices mode, where the PC2R always starts when you turn it on (to get to Internal Voices mode from another mode, press the Internal Voices button). The top line gives you information about the bank, while the bottom line shows the ID and name of the current program.
Page 24 This requires quite a bit of processing, and consequently has an effect on the polyphony available for other programs. KB3 programs use 44 of the PC2R’s 64 available voices, so when you use a KB3 program in a setup, you have 20 voices of polyphony available for the remaining programs in the setup.
Page 25: The Performance Region
16 setups in that group. The Performance Region Depending on how you use your PC2R, you may control it more from your MIDI source than from the PC2R’s front panel. Still, we’ve tried to organize the front panel so that everything you might need in a performance situation is easy to reach, and separate from the programming functions.
Page 26 In MIDI Setups mode, this button selects Zone 3 for viewing or editing. Split Layer In Internal Voices mode, this button switches the PC2R into AutoSplit mode, and adds a layer to the sound below the split point. In KB3 mode, this button switches between high and low pitch for the percussion effect (if any) for the current program.
Page 27: The Edit Region
The Edit Region There are eight buttons, and a dial called the Alpha Wheel, in the Edit region. Most of the buttons you’ll need for programming (editing) your PC2R are in this region. (We’ll discuss editing thoroughly in Chapter 4.) Four of the buttons in the Edit region have dual labels.
Page 28 If you’re in Internal Voices mode or KB3 mode, you can scroll all the way through the Internal Voices categories and into the KB3 categories (and vice versa). The PC2R automatically switches to the corresponding performance mode. Setups are separate, however; you can’t switch performance modes by scrolling through setup categories.
Page 29: The Modes Region
See page 4-28 for more information about editing effects. MIDI Receive This button takes you to MIDI Receive mode, where you can conﬁgure how the PC2R responds to incoming MIDI information. The ﬁrst time you enter MIDI Receive mode after powering up, the display shows Channel 1, because the PC2R resets the MIDI Receive channel each time you shut down.
Page 30: Program And Setup Organization
• Wet/Dry mix to input of FX-B Global The Global button takes you to a list of parameters and functions affecting the entire PC2R There’s a description of each global parameter/function beginning on page 5-35. Demo Press MIDI Receive and Global together to enter a special demo mode. Then press Main or Layer (in the Performance region) to play a demo sequence.
Page 31: Selecting Programs And Setups
When Wrap/Skip is On, if the User KB3 bank is empty when you try to enter it, the PC2R skips to the next available program, which happens to be Program 000 in Bank 6. (This isn’t true in the case of the User Internal Voices bank, since it actually contains a factory program.)
Page 32: Changing The Eq
B-11 lists the MIDI Controller messages that correspond to the knobs). Here’s an example. When you move Red Knob B on the PC2R (that is, when the Shift LED is red and you move Knob B), each zone of the current setup generates a MIDI Controller message (or not), depending on the value of the Ctrl Num parameter for Red Knob B in each setup zone.
Page 33: Effects
Playing Your PC2R Effects the vibrato depth in the current program only if the PC2R were using the same MIDI channel as your MIDI source—and if the program responded to MIDI 1.) Suppose you want to use a different physical controller on your MIDI source to affect the vibrato depth in Setup 001.
Page 34: Selecting Effects
Playing Your PC2R Effects Send a MIDI Controller message of 94 to change effects routing. A value of 0–31 switches the routing to None; a value of 32–63 switches to FX-A; a value of 64–95 switches to FX-B; a value of 96–127 switches to Both.
Page 35: Bypassing Effects
Most of the PC2R’s factory programs and setups route the audio signal into FX-A and not directly into FX-B. In this case, the PC2R automatically routes the signal from the output of FX-A into FX-B before it goes to the audio outputs. This means that there are three wet/dry variables;...
Page 36: Changing The Wet/Dry Mix From The Front Panel
If you’re on stage and you suddenly decide that your solo needs two sounds instead of one, you don’t want to take the time to edit a setup; you just want to add another sound as quickly as possible. Fortunately, the PC2R makes it easy to do this kind of thing without doing any actual editing.
Page 37: Using Autosplit For Quick Layers And Splits
2. Use the Alpha Wheel to select Program 065 Slow Strings. In Step 1 we created the layer by activating Zone 2; now we’ve assigned a program to it. 3. Press Split (Zone 3). The PC2R automatically splits the keyboard at a predetermined point (it’s called the AutoSplit Key, and by default it’s G 3, although you can change it).
Page 38: Saving Quick Layers And Splits
MIDI Setups mode. When you save a setup this way, the PC2R turns the AutoSplit feature off for that setup, and sets the low and high notes of each zone. See Muting and Soloing on page 3-21 to learn about how this affects playing setups.
Page 39: Saving The Autosplit Key
You can make your setups even more versatile by muting or soloing zones, changing the sound by pressing a single button on the PC2R’s front panel. In MIDI Setups mode, the four zone buttons select, mute, and unmute the zones in a setup. This differs from turning the zones on and off, which is done with the MIDI Channel parameter in the MIDI Xmit menu.
Page 40: Zone-Button Leds
Playing Your PC2R Muting and Soloing Zone-Button LEDs The tri-colored LED in each zone button indicates the zone’s status for the current setup: Empty zone—that is, a zone that has its MIDI Channel parameter set to Off. When a zone’s LED is off (unlit), the zone does not produce sound, even though it has a program assigned to it.
Page 41: The Autosplit Feature
Playing Your PC2R Saving the Internal Setup The AutoSplit Feature Muting and soloing are slightly different depending on whether the AutoSplit feature is on. When it’s on, a soloed zone expands to cover the entire MIDI note range—it doesn’t matter what the settings are for the AutoSplit key or for the zones low and high notes (key range).
Page 42 Playing Your PC2R Saving the Internal Setup Saving to the internal setup is useful when you want the changes you’ve made in the current setup to apply to all the programs you play while in Internal Voices mode (remember, Zone 1 of the internal setup is what sets all the parameters for programs—like note range, controller...
Page 43: Programming Your Pc2R
If you prefer, you can program your PC2R directly from your PC2. Go to the Global menu (on the PC2, not on the PC2R), and set the value of the Xmit Buttons parameter to On. As long as the MIDI Out port of the PC2 is connected to the MIDI In of the PC2R, this causes the buttons you press on your PC2 to affect your PC2R in the same way.
Page 44: Entering An Edit Mode
||||MIDI|Xmit||> Finding a Parameter and Changing its Value To navigate through the PC2R’s menus, use the Alpha Wheel or the cursor buttons (the right and left arrow buttons at the bottom left of the Edit region) and the Enter button.
Page 45: Naming And Storing
Programming Your PC2R Basic Editing Concepts Naming and Storing Storing (saving) is optional, of course. If you don’t want to store any of your changes, press Cancel one or more times to return to the mode you were in before you started editing.
Page 46: Other Save-Dialog Functions
3. Press Yes to restore, or No to cancel. If you choose to restore the current effect, the PC2R resets only the current program to its factory effect settings. If you choose to restore all effects, the PC2R resets all programs (both Internal- Voice programs and KB3 programs) to their factory effect settings.
Page 47: Dumping Objects
2. Initiate the dump or playback of the object ﬁle from your external device. You don’t have to put the PC2R in any special mode to receive the dump. When a dump is sent back to the PC2R, the information goes to the memory location for the corresponding object...
Page 48: Editing Short Cuts: Intuitive Entry
PC2R’s battery is running low. For example, you might dump a setup, then make a simple change to the version on your PC2R (like renaming it). Reload it, then select it, and check whether the name has reverted to its original.
Page 49: Short Cuts For Changing Parameter Values
You can use any continuous physical controller (sliders, wheels, pedals, ribbons, or pressure on your MIDI source, or Knobs A–D on the PC2R) to change the value of the current parameter very quickly. You can also use the keyboard in some cases. Here are three quick examples.
Page 50: Other Editing Functions
1. Enter an edit mode, and change the value of a parameter. 2. Press Compare. The PC2R restores the previous value of the parameter. To remind you that you’re listening to the unedited value, the Compare button blinks, and the top line of...
Page 51: Copying And Pasting
Programming Your PC2R Basic Editing Concepts 7. Press the Right cursor button twice to display the Release parameter. 8. Change the value to its minimum. Now both the attack and the release are slow. 9. Press Compare. Both the slow attack and the slow release are gone.
Page 52 5. Press and hold the Global button, and turn Knob A. This quickly selects the Green Knob A parameter in the Controllers menu. 6. Press Copy, then Yes. The display informs you that the PC2R has copied the controller settings, then returns to the Copy prompt.
Page 53: More About Sysex Dumps
If all you’re doing is dumping objects from your PC2R to a sequencer and loading them back, you won’t have to worry about the PC2R’s SysEx ID. Just make sure that you don’t change it after dumping objects, because you won’t be able to reload them if the PC2R’s SysEx ID is different from the one contained in the incoming messages.
Page 54: Dumping The Entire Memory
A note for K2000/K2500/K2600 owners: The sequencer in the K2000/K2500 has a 64K maximum for each song. A dump of the entire PC2R memory is larger than 64k, so you can’t use this method to load objects into a K2000, K2500, or K2600. Instead you must dump individual objects.
Page 55: The Current Layer
Press the Right cursor button, and you’ll see the keymap for the right side. Most of the PC2R’s programs use mono keymaps, which means that only one of the keymap parameters is active. If you look at the keymap parameters for a mono-sample program (like any of the electric pianos) you’ll see parentheses around one of the parameter names.
Page 56: Exiting The Program Editor
Your MIDI source’s Pitch Wheel (as well as other physical controllers) does what it does because the PC2R is programmed that way—but you could program it for other functions if you wanted. In a setup, your MIDI source’s Pitch Wheel can do something different in each zone—and that’s true for all the assignable physical controllers on your MIDI source (Mod Wheel, sliders, pedals, etc.)—as well as the knobs on the PC2R’s front panel.
Page 57: The Kb3 Editor
Programming Your PC2R The KB3 Editor The KB3 Editor In the KB3 Editor, you have access to the parameters that affect the sound of the current KB3 program. These parameters are described beginning on page 5-6. KB3 parameters are different from Internal Voices parameters, but otherwise, editing KB3 programs is much like editing Internal Voices programs.
Page 58: The Setup Editor
MIDI channel, controller assignments, and more. Even if your MIDI source can transmit on only one channel, you can make use of the four zones in a setup; the PC2R can remap incoming MIDI information to each of the channel in a setup, so you can play all four programs from one stream of MIDI information.
Page 59: Entering The Setup Editor
Setup 125 has many of its controller parameters set for optimum control of the PC2R. If you’re using a PC2 keyboard to control a PC2R, pasting this setup into one or more zones in your PC2 setups will make it easier to control your PC2R. In this case, make sure that the PC2R has its MIDI In parameter (in the Global menu) set to a value of Auto (or Remap if you’re using MIDI...
Page 60: Creating Setups
Programming Your PC2R The Setup Editor Creating Setups If you’ve read Layering and Splitting on page 3-18, you know how to create layered setups using the AutoSplit feature. Doing it this way, however, adds a lot of other features to the resulting setup, and you may not want that.
Page 61: Setting Initial Volume Levels For Different Zones
Save|Setup|129? A01|Default|Setup Notice that the PC2R suggests a setup ID of 129, which is the ﬁrst unused setup ID in the User bank. We’ll use that ID, but we’ll rename the setup before storing it. 14. Press the Right cursor button; the display prompts you to rename the setup. Press Yes.
Page 62: Assigning Knobs To Control Wet/Dry Mix In Different Zones
Programming Your PC2R The Setup Editor Assigning Knobs to Control Wet/Dry Mix in Different Zones Many of the factory programs use Green Knobs A and B to control the wet/dry mix of the effects assigned to FX-A and FX-B. The setups in these examples don’t use either of these knobs.
Page 63: Assigning Entry Values
To avoid this problem, the PC2R is designed so that once you set an entry value for a physical controller, it won’t become active until you pass the point of the entry value. So as you turn Knob A to the left for Setup 132, nothing happens until you reach 85.
Page 64: Multiple Controller Function
This is less of a problem for some controllers, like volume and wet/dry controls, since the PC2R has default entry values for these controllers. It’s just something to keep in mind when you’re creating your own setups.
Page 65: Offset Vs. Scale
Programming Your PC2R The Setup Editor 8. Press the Right cursor button. The display shows a prompt asking if you want to paste to Zone 1. 9. Press Zone 3, then Enter. The display shows Zone|pasted! and returns to the Paste prompt.
Page 66: Crossfades
Programming Your PC2R The Setup Editor Crossfades You can use a single continuous controller to fade one sound out while it fades another sound in. This is called a crossfade. 1. Create a two-zone setup, as you did in the example on page 4-18. Use a sustaining sound in each zone: perhaps two different organs.
Page 67: Velocity Layering
127). Selecting Setups Remotely You can use a switch controller on your MIDI source to select Setups 129–256 on the PC2R, which is convenient in performance situations if the PC2R isn’t within easy reach. By default, setups switch immediately when you activate the controller, but you can change the value of the Chg Setups parameter (in the Global menu) to Keys Up, and the setup will remain current until you’ve released all notes on your MIDI source.
Page 68: Transposing A Setup With A Button
Transposing a Setup With a Button If you don’t have the time to learn a tune in a different key, you can have the PC2R transpose a setup with one press of a button. This example transposes up a fourth, but it’s up to you to decide both the direction and the interval.
Page 69: Setting The Effects Change Mode
The value of FX Chg Mode resets automatically to Auto every time you turn on the PC2R. Setting the Effects Change Mode In many cases, you can leave both FX Chg Mode and FX Channel at their default settings (Auto and 1).
Page 70: Selecting Different Effects
Programming Your PC2R Effects Edit Mode Selecting Different Effects On page 3-16 we brieﬂy described performance aspects of changing effects. Here we’ll go into a bit more detail about selecting effects. 1. Enter Effects edit mode as described in the previous subsection.
Page 71: Saving Effects
Programming Your PC2R Effects Edit Mode In addition to the usual four parameters, these effects have three additional parameters parameters at the end of the FXB Select menu. Also, there’s a special editing case. If the KB3 effect you’re editing is assigned to a KB3 program and the FX Chg Mode parameter is set to Auto (which is the default), you’ll notice that when...
Page 72: Other Effects-Mode Functions
Programming Your PC2R Effects Edit Mode You don’t have to modify the factory programs when editing effects; you can create a new program in the User bank instead. 1. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 from the preceding procedure. When you see the Save dialog, press the Right cursor button.
Page 73: Common Editing Tasks
If you have a monaural sound system, or have only one available input to your mixer, you might want to play your PC2R in mono mode, in which case the full audio signal gets sent to both sides of the analog outputs (there’s no separation of left and right).
Page 74: Changing Preset Drawbar Values
PC2R sets them to their programmed values when you select the KB3 program. They can also be live, in which case the PC2R sets their values to the current positions of the drawbar controls (Knobs A–D, in combination with the Drawbar Toggle button) when you select the KB3 program.
Page 75: Using The Arpeggiator
The arpeggiator can affect both the PC2R and any MIDI instruments that are slaves of the PC2R. The notes produced by the arpeggiator in a given setup zone go to all of that zone’s destinations: local, MIDI, or both.
Page 76: Using Pressure (Aftertouch) As An Arpeggiator Controller
Programming Your PC2R Using the Arpeggiator The PC2R’s arpeggiator can be a lot of fun to play with; you can get many interesting and unusual effects. The following tutorial will get you started. 1. Start in MIDI Setups mode. To best hear the effects of the arpeggiator, you might want to start with a program that has a percussive attack, such as piano, marimba, or guitar.
Page 77: Using The Arpeggiator With A Sequencer Or External Controller
Using the PC2R with Other Gear If your system consists of a MIDI source and a PC2R alone, you probably don’t need to read this section. If you’re using a sequencer, you should read Using MIDI Receive Mode; if you’re using the PC2R to control additional instruments, read The PC2R as MIDI Master.
Page 78: Sending Bank-Select And Program-Change Messages
When you have a MIDI instrument slaved to the PC2R, the program-change messages you send to the PC2R from your MIDI source also go to the slave instrument. If your MIDI source can also send bank-select messages, you can select banks and programs on both the PC2R and the slave.
Page 79 … … When you’ve selected the Bank parameter in the PC2R, the display shows you both the 0/32 value and the bank number equivalent. With other parameters selected, the display shows only the bank number equivalent, followed by a colon (:), followed by the program number.
Page 80: Sending Program Changes Only
You want to use your keyboard controller to change programs on both the PC2R and the second keyboard. You don’t want to send note information to the second keyboard, however, since you’re actually playing the second keyboard (and not slaving it from the PC2R).
Page 81: Sending Different Program Changes To The Same Channel
Sending Different Program Changes to the Same Channel Suppose you want to play Program A on Channel 1 on the PC2R, and Program B on Channel 1 on an instrument that’s slaved to the PC2R. To create a setup that does this, follow Steps 1–8 of the preceding tutorial, but in Step 4 use the same MIDI channel for both zones (don’t forget to...
Page 82: Multi-Track Recording
This conﬁguration enables you to record multiple tracks, if your sequencer has that capability: 1. Connect the MIDI Out of your keyboard or MIDI source to the MIDI In of the PC2R. 2. Connect the MIDI Out of the PC2R to the MIDI In of the sequencer.
Page 83: Program Editor Parameters
Chapter 5 Descriptions of Parameters This chapter contains a description for each of the PC2R’s editing parameters. They’re organized into the following sections: • Program Editor Parameters ......5-1 •...
Page 84: The Timbre Menu
Descriptions of Parameters Program Editor Parameters The Timbre Menu The parameters in the Timbre menu control the most basic components of the sound in a program. There’s a separate set of Timbre parameters for each program layer. Keymap The keymap for programs using mono keymaps (most keymaps are mono keymaps). This parameter appears as for programs using stereo keymaps.
Page 85: The Envelope Menu
You may be wondering why you can set initial values for these MIDI Controllers and not others. It’s because most of the PC2R’s programs use at least one of these MIDI Controllers to do something (a common example is MIDI 1, which on most keyboards is the message sent by the Mod Wheel, and which controls vibrato or tremolo in many PC2R programs).
Page 86: The Lfo Menu
Descriptions of Parameters Program Editor Parameters These parameters control the rate of attack, decay, and release, which are known collectively as the envelope of a sound. Each parameter is measured as a multiple of 1, which is the unadjusted rate (that’s why there’s an after the value).
Page 87: The Lfo Menu: Rotor Effects Parameters
Descriptions of Parameters Program Editor Parameters The LFO Menu: Rotor Effects Parameters The rotor effects simulate the popular Leslie rotating speaker that has become a standard addition to the B-3 organ. KB3 programs all use rotor effects. You can add rotor effects to other programs by saving one of the KB3 effects to those programs.

Descriptions of Parameters KB3 Editor Parameters Perc Switch Either On or Off, this parameter enables/disables the percussion effect for the program. When the value is On, the nature of the percussion effect is determined by the percussion and percussion-pitch parameters (described below). In KB3 mode, you can use the Perc On/Off button to enable or disable percussion (or send MIDI 73 from your MIDI source).

Determines whether the zone transmits only to the PC2R, only to MIDI, or to both. The default- setup value is both (Local+MIDI). If you set the value to Local, the zone plays only on the PC2R. If you’re using the PC2R to control other instruments or to record to an external sequencer, use a value of MIDI or Local+MIDI.
Page 94: The Program Menu
Descriptions of Parameters Setup Editor Parameters Auxiliary Bend 1, Up (AuxBnd1 Up) Sets the number of semitones of upward pitch bend applied by any physical controller that sends AuxBnd1 (MIDI 21 for MSB and MIDI 53 for LSB), when that controller is at its maximum. Auxiliary Bend 1, Down (AuxBnd1 Dwn) Sets the number of semitones of downward pitch bend applied by any physical controller that sends AuxBnd1 (MIDI 21 for MSB and MIDI 53 for LSB), when that controller is at its maximum.
Page 95: Bank Mode
This parameter is primarily a convenience for when you’re sending MIDI to other instruments or to a sequencer. If you’re using the PC2R as a MIDI slave only, you won’t need to edit this parameter unless your MIDI source numbers its programs starting at 1 (the PC2R numbers its programs and setups starting at 0).

C 4 triggers the note C 4, just as you would expect. Assuming the zone’s Dest parameter is at its default value of Local+MIDI, every note you play goes both to the PC2R and to the MIDI Out port.
Page 98: The Velocity Menu
PC2R transmits via its MIDI Out port. A Bit of Background When you play a note on your MIDI source, the PC2R generates a Note On message with an attack-velocity value corresponding to how forcefully you play the note. Attack-velocity values range from 1 to 127;...

Page 100 Descriptions of Parameters Setup Editor Parameters Here’s another example: reversing a linear velocity curve so that it plays loud when you strike the keys softly, and vice versa. You might think that all you have to do is set Vel Scale to -100%. when you do that, you ﬁnd that all the ﬁnal attack-velocity values are at minimum.

MIDI sources: mono pressure (aftertouch) and control pedals, for example. The PC2R responds by default to many standard MIDI Controller messages like Sustain and Mod Wheel. With a little programming, you can get the PC2R to respond to just about any MIDI Controller message your MIDI source can generate.
Page 103: The Controllers Menu: Continuous Controller Parameters
Setup Editor Parameters page B-11 there’s a table that shows the MIDI Controller messages to send from your MIDI source when you want to simulate moving the knobs on the PC2R’s front panel. Entry Volume Sets the volume level of the zone when you select the setup, by sending a MIDI Controller 7 message with the value you specify.
Page 104: The Controllers Menu: Ribbon Controller Parameters
This parameter affects the behavior of the controller the same way that the Vel Curve parameter affects the PC2R’s velocity response. If you set Ctrl Curve to Sin+, the controller has its greatest effect in the middle of its range; if Ctrl Curve is Cos+, the controller has its greatest effect at the ends of its range.
Page 105 Descriptions of Parameters Setup Editor Parameters controllers—so are all of the continuous controller parameters (whose descriptions start on page 5-21). Ribbon Section Conﬁguration (Ribbon Sect) Determines the conﬁguration of the optional ribbon controller. A value of Large creates a single section spanning the entire length of the ribbon.
Page 106: The Controllers Menu: Switch Controller Parameters
PC2R’s behavior. The only reason this parameter is here at all is in case you dump setups from your PC2R to a PC2. In this case, the SwType parameter is relevant, since the PC2’s switch controllers can operate in two different modes.
Page 107 On Controller (On Ctrl) Determines the MIDI Controller message that the controller sends when you turn it on. When you set a value for this parameter, the PC2R automatically assigns the same value to Off Ctrl. On Value Sets the value of the MIDI Controller message sent by the controller when you turn it on. The value for all zones in the default setup is 127 or On.
Page 108: The Arpeggiator Menu
Descriptions of Parameters Setup Editor Parameters The Arpeggiator Menu Arpeggiator Activation (Arp Active) Enables or disables the arpeggiator for the setup. If this parameter’s value is Off, then you won’t hear arpeggiation for any notes in any zone of the setup, regardless of the settings for any of the other arpeggiator parameters.
Page 109 Descriptions of Parameters Setup Editor Parameters In the next three modes, the arpeggiator latches notes only when MIDI Controller 119 (ArpLatch) sends a value of On (64 or higher). An easy way to experiment with these modes is to assign a convenient physical controller to send MIDI 119. Overplay The arpeggiator latches any notes in the arpeggiator that are being held when ArpLatch goes on, and continues playing them, even after you let them go, until ArpLatch off.
Page 110 Descriptions of Parameters Setup Editor Parameters Play Order Determines the order in which the arpeggiator plays latched notes. There are eight possible values: Played Latched notes get played in the chronological order in which you latched them. Latched notes play in ascending pitch order, regardless of their chronological order. Down Latched notes play in descending pitch order, regardless of their chronological order.
Page 111 Internal. If the value of Clock is External, the arpeggiator follows the tempo of MIDI Clock signals (if any) received at the PC2R’s MIDI In port. If no external Clock signal is received, notes in the arpeggiator region do not play at all.
Page 112 Ctrl 117 All arpeggiated notes play with attack velocities matching the current value of MIDI 117, either from a front-panel controller on the PC2R or received at the MIDI In port. Fixed Velocity (Fixed Vel) When the value of Vel Mode is Fixed, sets the attack-velocity level for all arpeggiated notes.
Page 113 Shift is 4 (a third), and Shift Limit is 7 (so notes won’t get shifted above G 4). The arpeggiator plays C 4, then E 4. The next note should be G 4, but that’s above the shift limit—so the PC2R calculates the difference between that G 4 and the shift limit (G 4): one semitone.
Page 114: Effects Edit Mode Parameters
“glissando” changes direction around each change in direction of the latched notes. Effects Edit Mode Parameters Effects edit mode is a special subset of the PC2R’s editors. When you press FX, you go to the FX Routing menu in the editor corresponding to the performance mode you were in:...
Page 115: Midi Receive Mode Parameters
MIDI Receive Mode Parameters MIDI Receive mode is designed to make it easy to conﬁgure your PC2R as a MIDI slave—especially when you’re using it as a multi-timbral playback module for a sequencer.
Page 116 FX-A Wet/Dry Mix (A) For the current program on the current channel, speciﬁes how much of FX-A’s effect gets applied to the dry signal coming from the PC2R’s sound engine. Also transmits a MIDI 91 message to the MIDI Out port.
Page 117: Global Mode Parameters
PC2R is connected to the MIDI In of another instrument, and its MIDI Out is connected to the MIDI In of the PC2R. In this case, if the sequencer’s Soft Thru (Patch Thru, Play Thru, etc.) is active, you’ll get doubled notes unless you turn the PC2R’s local control off.
Page 118 Default value. The newly-selected setup becomes active as soon as you select it. Any notes being held by the PC2R (or by Kurzweil instruments receiving MIDI from the PC2R) continue with their normal decays. Non-Kurzweil MIDI slaves may cut off notes as soon as the PC2R’s setup changes.
Page 119 Affects what happens when you exit an editor without saving. If the value if Never (the default), the PC2R won’t prompt you to save your edits when you leave an editor (by pressing one of the mode-selection buttons). In this case, the mode-selection button ﬂashes, prompting you to select a bank (or press the same button again to enter that mode on the last program or setup you were using in that mode).
Page 120 Global Mode Parameters If the value is Ask, leaving an editor without saving causes the PC2R to ask you if you want to save your edits. You can press Yes or No as desired, or you can press a mode-selection button to cancel your edits and return to a performance mode.
Page 121 MIDI. All other programs use the current effect, but retain their own settings for wet/dry mix. Setting the value of FX Channel to a speciﬁc channel is useful when you’re using the PC2R for playback with a sequencer. This enables you to specify which channel controls the selection of effects.
Page 122 KB3 program to a channel that’s not the KB3 channel, the program change won’t take effect. Tuning You can tune the PC2R up or down one semitone, in one-cent increments. This can be useful if you are playing along with a recording, or playing with other acoustic instruments that can’t be easily retuned.
Page 123 Most digital processing and recording equipment requires these bits to be transmitted, so by default, the PC2R sends these status bits (a value of On for this parameter). If your equipment isn’t processing or recording the PC2R’s digital audio output properly, try setting the value of this parameter to Off, which prevents the PC2R from sending the status bits.
Page 124 Not editable. Indicates the version of the currently installed operating system software. Keyboard (Keyboard) and Version (Ver) Not editable (and not important for the PC2R). There are two ﬁelds: Keyboard and Ver. The Keyboard ﬁeld indicates the length of the keyboard (0, of course, since there is no keyboard; in keyboard models of the PC2, this ﬁeld would have a value of 76 or 88).
Page 125: Appendix A Maintenance And Upgrades

Page 225: Appendix Dpc2R Drum Maps
Appendix D PC2R Drum Maps Drum maps determine the layout of PC2R drum programs with respect to the notes you play on your MIDI source. They don’t control the sounds contained in the drum programs as much as the location of the sounds within the MIDI note range. This means that for any given drum program, changing the drum map changes the sound (if any) that you hear when you play a particular note on your MIDI source.
