MIDI Program Change messages

The ddrum4 has a special way of interpreting MIDI Program Change (MPC) messages.

The kits, P. 1 ~ 26 are selected by sending MPC 0 to 25 to the ddrum4. The factory kits, F.27 ~

99 use MPC 26 to 98.

MPC 99 is used to turn the ddrum4 to the default Palette mode, the same as appears after you

turn the ddrum4 on.

To select one of the sounds in the kick palette, send one of the MPC numbers 100 to 104, for

the snare palette, use one of the MPC 106 to 110. The other two instrument groups use the

MPC number groups 112 to 116 and 118 to 122.

To deselect a Palette in, e.g. the kick group, send the MPC message 105 (to revert to the kit

selection for that particular instrument group). Use the MPC 111, 117 and 123 for the other

groups.

This means that in order to set the ddrum4 to a certain sound combination by sending MPC

messages to it, you may have to use a combination of several MPC messages. You may select

a kit by one MPC (0 ~ 98), change the kick in that particular kit by another MPC, etc.

As well as receiving MPCs, the ddrum4 transmits them, whenever you select a kit or palette

on the ddrum4 itself.
