Using program changes to recall scenes and library items

The M7CL lets you assign a specific event (scene recall or effect library recall) to each program
change number, so that when this event is executed on the M7CL, a program change message
of the corresponding number will be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, the corre-
sponding event can be executed when a program change message is received from an external
device.

Connect the M7CL to your external device.
The following illustration shows an example of using
the MIDI IN/OUT connectors to transmit and receive
MIDI messages.
