The Operating Modes
Functions
The MIDI Program Change Function has three pages, PROG (Program), PCH (MIDI
Program), and BANK (MIDI Bank). Use the PROG, PCH, or BANK soft buttons to
access each page. By default the Program page is selected when entering the MIDI Program
Change Function. Use the Param/Channel buttons to the left of the display to change the
MIDI channel that you wish to send a program change to (MIDI channel is shown in the
top right of the display).
PROG (Program)
Use the Program page if you wish to send a program change message to another Artis, or to
a sound module that has programs starting at Program 1 that are not organized into banks
each numbered 1 - 128. Press the PROG soft button if you are not already viewing the
Program page.
Use the numbers printed on the Program/Multi buttons to enter a Program number, then
press the Enter button. Press the SEND soft button to send the MIDI program change,
or press the Cancel soft button to return to the previous Mode. After the Program Change
is sent, the Artis will return to the previous Mode. On the Program page you can enter
Program numbers from 1 to 2,097,152—this seemingly random number comes from the
fact that, by the MIDI Specification, you can send Program messages for up to 16,384 MIDI
Banks (0–16,383), each containing up to 128 Programs.
PCH (MIDI Program) & BANK (MIDI Bank)
Use the MIDI Program and MIDI Bank pages if you wish to send a program change
message to a sound module that has Programs organized in MIDI Banks of 128 Programs.
Follow these steps:
1. Press the PCH soft button to go to the MIDI Program page. Use the numbers printed on
the Program/Multi buttons to enter a Program number, then press the Enter button. (If the
Programs on your connected sound module are organized with each Program number being
between 1 and 128, then first subtract 1 from the desired Program number before pressing
the Enter button.)
2. Press the BANK soft button to go to the MIDI Bank page. Use the numbers printed on
the Program/Multi buttons to enter a Bank number, then press the Enter button.
3. Press the SEND soft button to send the MIDI program change, or press the Cancel soft
button to return to the previous Mode. After the Program Change is sent, the Artis will
return to the previous Mode.
