Re: programmable knobs

2005-06-01 by steve_the_composer

Its rather simple. You don't need a midi manual. You send two 
numbers to determine the bank [Bank Select MSB and Bank Select LSB] 
followed by a program change. Bank Select controls are CCs.  (Look 
in the Appendix to your manual.Bank Select MSB is CC#0; Bank Select 
LSB is CC#32.

BUT: 

The folks at E-Mu made it easy for you. You can set it up on ONE 
PAGE in the E-Mu event editor.

1. Go to the event editor, insert a prog event.
2. That's it!!!

m = msb = most significant byte = E-Mu ROM ID
l = lsb = least significant byte = E-Mu ROM Bank
prog = program change = E-Mu Patch Number.

msb/ROM ID can be gotten by pressing audition.

To switch multisetups, use msb = 80, lsb = 0. (Its in the manual 
under Restoring multisetups.)

Hope this helps.
