Playing Your PC2R

Changing Sounds

If your MIDI connections and channel assignments are OK, you should be able to change

programs from your MIDI source—which is probably how most people do it. If you want to

change programs from the PC2R however, you can. Just turn the Alpha Wheel in either direction

to scroll through the list of available sounds.

There's more about selecting programs and setups beginning on page 3-13.

There are two demo sequences stored in ROM. These demos were recorded using PC2R sounds

and effects exclusively. See page 2-5 to learn how to play the demo sequences.

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.
