The PCR-300/500/800 has a total of fifty controllers: [R1]–[R9], [S1]–[S9], [A1]–[A9], [B1]–[B9], [C1]–[C3], [L1]–[L4], [H1]–[H2], [P1]–[P2], [BEND], [MOD], and [AFTERTOUCH].
You can freely assign the MIDI message that will be transmitted by each of these controllers. You need to use Edit mode to make MIDI message assignments. This section explains how
to assign MIDI messages to the controllers using the PCR keyboard.
Alternatively, you can make these assignments using PCR Editor. For details, refer to

Using PCR Editor

(p. 14).

The following functions can be assigned to controllers.

• If you want to assign a MIDI message to [AFTERTOUCH], press the [EDIT] button

and then press down strongly on the keyboard or press the [AFTERTOUCH]
button.

• If you’ve changed the controller settings, save the control map if you want to keep

your changes. If you turn off the power without saving, your changes will be lost.
