Accessing the ‘Patches’ of SRX-
series expansion boards via MIDI

As you will notice, the CC00 value is always “93”. The
CC32 value, on the other hand, depends on (a) the
board you installed and (b) the number of sounds it
contains.

Note: Drum Sets of the SRX-series expansion board use the CC00
value “92”. The CC32 value to use can be found in the documen-
tation that came with the expansion board you installed.

The MIDI standard can only handle 128 program
change numbers, which is why boards with more than
128 Patches use several consecutive CC32 values.

Note: If you are using the leaflet supplied with the board to
locate sounds, please see the “Patch List” and “Rhythm Set Key
Assign” lists labeled “For RD-700…”, “RD-series”, or “G-70”.

Note: You can select sounds of an SRX-series expansion board
for any track you like. Some boards contain loops (or grooves)
whose tempo is automatically synchronized to the Arranger or
song tempo.
