Operating the Blue Thunder
Program Changes
Program Changes allow for different MIDI program numbers to be assigned to Blue Thunder preset
numbers. For example, MIDI program #58 can be mapped to Blue Thunder preset #34. Then, when
program #58 is selected from a MIDI transmitting device (such as a Rocktron All Access foot control-
ler), preset #34 will be recalled on the Blue Thunder.
The Program Changes Map table is shipped from Rocktron at a one-to-one correspondance (i.e.
MIDI program #1 is mapped to Blue Thunder preset #1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3, etc.).
