Hi;
is it possible to change mode via MIDI? In other words, what MIDI command do I have to issue (if any) to switch from Program to Setup (I am using SP terminology; i do not know if this objects are named the same in PC series)?
With other synths I can do something similar via SYSEX messages, but i could not find any information on this for Kurzweil.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
G.
Yeah, this should be possible via SysEx, but trouble is that Kurzweil didn't publish SysEx specification for PC3 unfortunately.
You could listen the output from PC3 via MIDIOX and catch the relevant messages, perhaps?
Hi;
thanks for the suggestion: just tried, but I have not been able to catch any sysex message; just a bunch of CC e PC, one for each of the 4 parts of the setup.
Thanks anyway.
Regards,
G.
I use Band Helper / Setlist Maker To change Forte Modes
For Multi mode change add the following to the raw hex box
B0 77 0C
B0 6F 00
B0 70 00
B0 71 00
B0 72 0B
B0 76 40
B0 77 02
For Program mode change add the following to the raw hex box
B0 77 0C
B0 6F 00
B0 70 00
B0 71 00
B0 72 0B
B0 76 40
B0 77 01
Hope this helps a few people out ...
I also have a PC3K which can change modes with Sysex codes:
to change to program mode:
F0 07 0F 00 10 70 13 F7
F0 07 0F 00 10 70 13 F7
to change to Setup mode:
F0 07 0F 00 10 70 03 F7
F0 07 0F 00 10 70 03 F7
Those look like the PC3 front panel button messages, but don't you want a 72 in the second message for a "button release"?
F0 07 md id 10 pr bn F7
07 = Kurzweil
md = model
id = sysex id
pr = press=$70 release=$72
bn = button number
button xx pushed F0 07 40 00 10 70 xx F7
button xx released F0 07 40 00 10 72 xx F7
For example, the Exit button
F0 07 40 00 10 70 32 F7 press
F0 07 40 00 10 72 32 F7 release
Models
PC3 40
PC3K 0F
PC3LE 0A
Button numbers for PC3:
Program - 13
MIDI - 1B
Setup - 03
Song - 1C
Master - 0B
All values in hexadecimal. Other model numbers welcomed!
Also, this message might change to Program mode on the PC3s (code 40 for PC3):
F0 07 40 00 30 F7
((A question: do the Forte, Artis, or SPx models have the Master mode option to send button presses?
If so, could someone generate a list? I'd like to make a button-code overlay on a front-panel image...))
K2000R 3.87J | MBP 2012 macOS 10.14.6
button xx pushed F0 07 40 00 10 70 xx F7
button xx released F0 07 40 00 10 72 xx F7
70 or 72 status and button number not required in the string for pc3K
