6.8 PAGE 8: SELECT DRUM SETS VIA MIDI PROGRAM CHANGES (PRG CHNG)
PAGE
SETUP

PRG CHNG

PERFORM
The display shows PRG CHNG. Program Change commands can change Drum Sets
numbers at any time, including while the SR-16 is playing. To have the SR-16 receive
Program Changes, use the INC/DEC buttons to select ON. Select OFF to have the SR-16
ignore Program Changes.
Background Program Change (PC) 00 selects User Drum Set 00; PC 01 selects User Drum Set 01; PC 02
selects User Drum Set 02; etc. Caution! Some units number Program Changes as 1-128, others as 0-127, and
some as banks of programs. If the device generating Program Changes follows a non-standard protocol, it's a good
idea to make up a conversion chart that shows which Program Changes call up which Drum Sets.
Program Changes 00-49 select the 50 User Drum Sets. Program Changes 50-99 select Preset Drum Sets 00-49.
Program Changes 100-127 select User Drum Sets 00-27.
The current Pattern will remember whatever Drum Set is selected via Program Changes, just as if you had selected
it manually, unless the SR-16 is in Manual mode (described in Page 9 of the Drum Set menu).
If Program Change is enabled, and the SR-16 is in MULTI-DRUMSET mode (see section 6.9 below), and a
program change is received in the 00-49 range, the SR-16 will automatically select the drumset group
corresponding to the program change number. For example, if program 36 is received with the above conditions
met, the note map will change to drumset group 30-39.
6.9 PAGE 9: MAP DRUM NOTES (NOTE MAP)
Within each Pattern, MIDI notes can either be mapped to 12 different sounds in NORMAL
mode,.or they can be mapped to any of five drumset groups (User Drumsets 00-09, 10-19,
20-29, 30-39, and 40-49) in MULTI-DRUMSET mode. Any of these drumset groups can
cover MIDI notes 000 through 119. This makes the SR-16 ideal for use as a drum sound
module, triggered by either an electronic drum kit or set of electronic drum pads, or by notes
from a sequencer.
Note that while in this mode, you cannot record notes into a Pattern via MIDI. It is assumed
that you will be using the SR-16 strictly as a drum sound expander module.
The chart on the following page shows which drum pads of which drum sets are triggered by
which MIDI notes. The logic to this assignment is that there are 12 drum pads per octave of
notes, so pad 1 always starts on a C note (MIDI notes 000, 012, 024, 036, 048, 060, 072, 084,
096, and 108). Remember that these drum assignments must be saved as Drum Sets in order
to retain the note map assignments.
