Re: Bank Change commands

2008-10-20 by steve_the_composer

BTW, here's what the Novation ReMOTE 25 manual says about bank 
switching using both CC0 and CC32. (I am not sure if all Novation 
midi controllers are the same.) Good luck.

FYI, The Evolution MK-249C has separate Bank LSB and Bank MSB 
buttons.  >>EACH<< button send out all 3 parameters needed to do 
program changes in external gear (Bank Select LSB, Bank Select MSB, 
Program change).

Sample single-button press from X-Loader's Midi Monitor:
bankSel ch: 0 ctrl: 0 val: 3
bankSel ch: 0 ctrl: 32 val: 5
progchg ch: 0 prg: 1

b0 00 03
b0 20 05
c0 01

From ReMOTE 25 manual: 
In Play Mode, it is possible to select sounds on external MIDI 
devices directly by using the DATA / VALUE encoder and the PAGE UP / 
DOWN buttons.

Use the DATA / VALUE encoder to transmit a MIDI Bank Select message 
to a MIDI device. When the DATA / VALUE encoder is moved, the 
display shows :

MIDI Prog Bank:
123

and a Bank Select message is immediately sent. After about half a 
second the display reverts back to showing the current Template's 
name. Note that the ReMOTE 25 always sends Bank Select messages 
using CC32. This is used by most MIDI equipment, but some equipment 
may use CC0 messages. If this option appears not to change the
Program bank on the MIDI device, it may be necessary to define 
another template control to transmit CC0 values. See pages 27 - 30 
for details on assigning controller numbers to controls.

Use the PROG / PAGE UP / DOWN buttons to transmit a Program Change 
message to a MIDI device.
