PC2 Version 3 Operating System Features

Many of the new features in the Version 3 operating system
support the programs and setups in the PCR-1 option. There
are several other new features as well, however. This section
describes all of the new features, which fall into the following
categories:

• GM Control Parameters. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5

GM Control Parameters

PC2s with the Version 3 operating system and the PCR-1
option support General MIDI 1 (GM). You can turn on GM
mode and play any GM file using the PC2.

Note

: For GM files to play correctly, the GM program set
must be present in the PC2—it can be in either ROM (Bank 2,
Exp1) or in RAM (Bank 1, User), but it has to be present.

PCR-1 User’s Guide

PC2 Version 3 Operating System Features

The parameters that control the PC2’s GM functions are in
the Global menu. There are three of them: General MIDI, GM
Bank, and GM FX Scale.

General MIDI

Use this parameter to turn GM mode on and off. Set the value
to On to activate GM mode; set the value to
normal operation. When you turn your PC2 off, it remembers
whether GM mode was on, and starts up in the same state
the next time you turn the PC2 on.

You can also activate/deactivate GM mode with a System
Exclusive (SysEx) message to the PC2. To turn GM mode on
via SysEx, send this message:

Off

to return to

F0 7E <

device ID

The value you use for <

> 09 01 F7

device ID

> must match the value of
the Device ID parameter in the Global menu. By default it’s 0,
so unless you’ve changed it, your SysEx message should
include 00 for <

device ID

>. You can also use 7F as the Device

ID to broadcast to all receiving instruments.
To turn GM mode off via SysEx, send this message:

F0 7E <

What Happens When You Turn GM Mode On

device ID

> 09 02 F7

When General MIDI is On, the PC2 sets all MIDI channels
(except Channel 10, the Drum channel) to play programs in
the bank where the GM programs are stored (Bank 2, Exp1 if
you installed the GM programs into ROM, or Bank 1, User if
you loaded them into RAM; see

GM Bank

below for more
information). Channel 10 plays programs in Bank 7; these are
drum programs, with program change numbers reconfigur ed
to match the GM specification.

To ensure the proper dynamic response to GM files, the PC2
adjusts the receive velocities using a specialized touch map.
If you have a PC2R, you’ll see this value if you select the
Touch parameter in the Global menu (it doesn’t show up on
keyboard models).

PCR-1 User’s Guide

PC2 Version 3 Operating System Features

Because GM handles effects levels differently, the PC2 scales
down the levels of FX A and FX B. You can adjust the amount
of scaling manually, using the GM FX Scale parameter
(described on page 8).

What Happens When You Turn GM Mode Off

When General MIDI is
to play Bank 0 (Int), Program

Off

, all MIDI channels are reassigned

000

. The programs in Bank 7
return to their normal configuration; the value of the Touch
parameter returns to its former value (which the PC2
remembers if you turn the power off); the effect levels return
to their former state.

GM Bank

The GM Bank parameter lets you manually specify the bank
where your GM programs are stored. The default value is

Auto

, which means that when you turn GM mode on, the
PC2 checks for the GM programs and automatically sets all
MIDI channels (except 10) to play programs in the bank
where it finds the GM programs. The display shows you
which bank is found (Exp1) in the example below, so the
display looks like this:

||Global|Settings
GM|Bank|(Exp1):|Auto

|

|

You’ll almost never need to change the default value of Auto
for GM Bank. In fact, there’s only one such case: when
you’ve loaded your GM programs into RAM instead of
installing them into ROM, and you’ve deleted Program

127 Gunshot

(which is the program the PC2 looks for when it
checks to see which bank contains the GM programs). In this
case, when you turn GM mode on, the PC2 is unable to select
the right bank automatically (and the GM Bank parameter
shows

User

The display still shows

None

in parentheses). Set the value of GM Bank to

, forcing the PC2 to play the programs in the User bank,

(None)

for GM Bank, but you have

access to the GM programs.

GM FX Scale

With this parameter you can control how much the effect
levels are reduced when you’re in GM mode (which is done
to make the effect levels consistent with GM instruments). By
default, the value is
Controllers 93 FXAWet and 91 FXBWet are multiplied by .25,
and the effects are 75% drier. Increase the value of
GM FX Scale to make the effects wetter; reduce it to make
them drier.

New Parameters for Displaying Software Versions

The Global menu contains three new parameters:
Int Sound Ver, Exp1 Ver, and Exp2 Ver. These parameters
can’t be edited; they’re there to show the versions of the
soundware files installed in your PC2.

Int Sound Ver shows the version of the basic (Internal Voices)
soundware objects.

Exp1 Ver shows the version of the PCR-1 soundware file
(assuming it’s installed in ROM and not loaded in RAM); the

Orch

value of Exp1 Ver includes either
which program set is installed in ROM.

or GM to indicate

Exp2 Ver shows the version of the PCR-2 soundware file (the
PCR-2 option is not released as of this printing).

New Demo Features

We’ve added a few features to the PC2’s Demo mode. It’s
now easier to find and play the demo songs. You can also
load the songs into RAM, save (dump) them to an external
device (a computer sequencer application, for example), and
delete them from RAM.

10–19 Bank 1 (User)
20–29 Bank 2(Exp1)
30–39 Bank 3 (Exp2) (for future release)

Loading Demos into RAM

You can load PC2 demo songs into RAM by playing them
with a sequencer that’s connected to the PC2. The demos are
specialized .MID files that contain SysEx data. When you
play these files with your sequencer, the PC2 recognizes the
SysEx data and loads the songs into RAM.

The procedure for loading demos into RAM is similar to that
for loading program/setup files into RAM. For details, see

Loading Program/Setup Files Into RAM

below

On the CD, the demo files are in the folder (directory) called

base_demo

or

pcr1_demo

, which is in the folder called

to

ram

.

Deleting and Dumping Demos

You can delete demo songs to gain RAM space, and you can
dump them to files via SysEx so that you can load them again
at a later time without having to use the CD.

Note

: The PC2 allows you to select ROM demos and execute
the delete function as if you were really deleting the ROM
demos. They don’t truly get deleted, however. You can
actually delete only those demos that you’ve loaded in RAM.

(which is near the end of the list). When you install/load the
Orchestral set, 16 new categories are inserted at different
points within the list of Internal categories. Unlike the GM
categories, the orchestral categories aren’t just inserted in a
continuous block; they’re organized so that they’re listed
with similar categories (for example, all the non-GM string
categories appear next to each other in the list).

Loading Program/Setup Files Into RAM

The set of programs you’re going to use most—Orchestral or
GM—is the set you should install in ROM. That way the
programs/setups will always be available, even if you do a
hard reset.

Whichever set you decide to install in ROM, you can still
have access to the other set of programs, by loading them
into RAM. This set of programs stays in RAM until you load
something else into RAM or do a hard reset.

Caution

objects already stored there. When you load the GM set into
RAM, it replaces all the programs in the User bank. When
you load the Orchestral set, it replaces all the programs in the
User bank, as well as Setups

dump (save) them before loading See your instrument’s

computer or sequencer to the MIDI In of the PC2.

2. Insert the PC2 CD into the CD-ROM drive of your
computer or sequencer.

3. Launch your sequencer application if necessary.

4. Save (dump) any programs in the User bank that you
want to keep, because they’ll be erased when you load
the MIDI file (this also applies to Setups

5. Open the MIDI file that you want to load in RAM, The

not the same files as the ROM versions.

6. Play the MIDI file. The file’s contents automatically get
loaded in RAM. The LED in the MIDI Recv button
lights to indicate the data flow.

7. Turn your instrument off, then on again (or do a soft
reset; don’t do a hard reset). Always do this when you
load one of these files into RAM. This enables the
instrument to reinitialize with the proper sound and
program information.

Note: If your instrument has the PCX-1 Polyphony
Expansion Option, the initialization described in Step 7 takes
several seconds. The PC2’s display indicates the progress of
the initialization.

PCR-1 Orchestral Program Information

PCR-1 Orchestral Program Information

General Program Notes

The PCR-1 programs are in Bank 2 (Exp1), and are number ed
from 000 to 127.

Most programs respond to common MIDI controller
numbers (like 7 Volume, 64 Sustain, 66 Sostenuto, and
67 Soft). When a program has a different response to one or
more common controller, the controller information for the
program (beginning on page 17) indicates the program’s
response.

Strings

For programs whose names include prs, you can control
vibrato rate and depth with Mpress or Mod Wheel.

Programs whose names include vib have built-in vibrato.
Programs whose names include p/v also have a certain
amount of built-in vibrato; for these programs you can
increase the vibrato rate and depth with Mpress and Mod
Wheel.

Woodwinds

Programs whose names include solo are designed primarily
for single-line playing. Programs with ens in their names are
designed for playing polyphonically or for single lines in an
ensemble context. Unless otherwise indicated, Mpress and
Mod Wheel control the vibrato of solo programs. Ensemble
programs have built-in vibrato, which you can increase with
Mpress and Mod Wheel.

For programs whose names include slow, we recommend
using the Expression control (MIDI 11) to fade long notes.

GM Drum Kits

There are eight GM drum programs, which are stored in
Bank 7. These programs are always available (even if you
have installed only the Orchestral program set). When you’re
in GM mode, the GM drum program change numbers get
remapped to comply with the GM specification. They return
to their normal program change numbers when you turn GM

11

PCR-1 User’s Guide

PCR-1 Orchestral Program Information

mode off. The value of the Drum Remap parameter does not
affect these programs, regardless of whether you’re in GM
mode. The Drum Remap parameter affects only the drum
programs that are not in Bank 7.

Velocity T riggers (VTrig)

Some programs (such as Program 076 Pizz & Timp in the
Orchestral set) use velocity triggers (VTrig) to alter their
sounds. A VTrig takes effect when you play a note above (or
below) a certain volume (attack velocity). Program 076, for
example, is pizzicato strings until you play above
mezzoforte, when you do, a timpani is added to the
pizzicato.
