What's New With The "X - Peavey PC1600X User Manual

What's New With The X?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The "X" stands for expanded! We've started with the modular PC1600 and added
extensive new features along with a NEW look!
Expanded SysEx Control
Checksum
Now it is possible to designate a byte as "cs" for checksum calculations.
Global Channel Bytes
Many MIDI products use SysEx messages that include a MIDI channel and/or device ID. This is of course
handy for differentiating among multiple units of the same type. Normally chancing this byte would require
editing of each fader/button individually. Now a new byte can be a part of the string that specifies the global
MIDI setting or Global device ID. By simple chancing the Global Setting all messages are changed.
Expanded Button Facilities
Send Fader
This feature provides an easy way to send specific fader values, when a button is set to "send faders it must
be pressed to enable a fader value to be transmitted. Fader movement is used to select a specific value and
the button is pressed to send it. By the way continuing to hold the button down will enable the fader to work
as usual.
Send Scene
This new button function allows any scene to be sent from any of the 16 buttons.
Fader ID
With a button programmed to "Off/Fader ID." Dressing the button displays the fader name.
Remote Control
A1I 16 buttons can now be triggered externally via MIDI notes or program change messages.
This is particularly handy for control from a foot pedal.
Note Capture
This makes it easy to capture clusters of notes (cords) and assign then to a button.
Left Arrow (Mute) Button
When the Let Arrow button is pressed, the PC1600X will not generate any MIDI messages.
(Only non-filtered messages arriving at the MIDI In will be echoed).
Preset Initialization
This new utility feature allows a preset to be returned to an initialized state. This is handy for programming
from "scratch" or freeing up more dynamically allocated preset memory.
Enhanced Scene Features
Preset Identity
The scene display now indicates the associated preset number.
