different set of 200 programs and setups at your disposal. When you're using this format, the
PC3A will respond to MC 0 or 32 messages for selecting QA banks, and to PCHs for selecting
entries within the current bank. PCHs select entries according to their "chronological" listing
within the QA bank (not according to their IDs).

0–127
Depending on the QA bank entry you want to select, you'll send the PC3A either a PCH (value 0
to 127), or a MIDI Controller 0 or 32 message (value 0 to 127) followed by a PCH. Sending a single
command will let you select from a range of 10 QA banks and select an entry within that bank
(see the table below). To select a different range of QA banks, send an MC 0 or 32 message
followed by a PCH.
The MC 0 or 32 messages selects the range of QA banks (0s through 70s), while the PCH selects
the bank within that range, as well as the entry within that bank. Neither the MC 0 or 32 nor the
PCH selects a different memory bank. In fact, you can't change the memory bank via MIDI when
using this format. All program and setup selections are made within the currently selected
memory bank. You'll know which memory bank is selected by looking at the ID of the currently
selected Quick Access bank in the top line of the Quick Access mode page.
QAccess and MIDI Transmission
If you're in Quick Access mode and you're using the QAccess format for the program change
type, selecting QA banks or bank entries from the PC3A (with the alphanumeric buttonpad, the
cursor buttons, the Alpha Wheel, the Plus/Minus buttons, or the Chan/Layer buttons) also sends
corresponding program change commands to the PC3A's USB and MIDI Out port. The PC3A
sends either an MC 0 or 32 message followed by a PCH. The following tables give specific
examples.
