Pitch Wheel and Mod Wheel
To the left of the PC3’s keyboard are the Pitch Wheel and the Mod Wheel, as well as the SW and
Arp buttons.
Push the Pitch Wheel away from you to raise the pitch of the note(s) you are playing. Pull it
towards you to lower the pitch. Most programs are set so that the pitch wheel will raise and
lower pitch by a whole step, although some programs use the pitch wheel to lower pitch by as
much as an octave. The Pitch Wheel has a spring so that it will snap back to place (i.e., back to
the original pitch) when you release it.
The Mod Wheel performs a variety of functions. Different programs may use it for filter sweeps,
tremolo/vibrato, wah, or layer volume.
The Arp button turns on and off the PC3’s Arpeggiator.
The SW button (MIDI 29) can be programmed to do a variety of things. Often it is used for layer
enable or effect enable.
