changed controller. Simple. The controller events can be in either order so long as they precede

the patch event. Test and save your file and you are done.

Using Hybrid Technique:

If you were using the Controller #0 method in the past, it is possible to continue using the

controller #0 method. All you need to do is change the controller #32 event before each patch

call. However, remember that if your sequencer uses a set up page to initialize tracks, the hybrid

technique will not work unless you repeat the patch call in your event listing with the controller

#32 event preceding it.

Formerly you selected Nylon+Steel this way:

Listing 12

Controller #32, 0

Patch, Controller 0, 9, 25

Now a simple change will produce this listing:

Listing 13

Controller #32, 2

Patch, Controller 0, 9, 25

Listing 13 will call the correct SC-88 sound on every 2nd generation or higher Sound Canvas

there is.

So how does this change my SC-88?

This change has no effect on your SC-88. All you did was change bank selecting of the SC-88

map from indirect to direct addressing. Now on any SC-88 or higher Sound Canvas that track

will always find its sound on map 2 which will always be the SC-88 map on every 2nd

generation or higher Sound Canvas. No adjustments are required by the SC-88 Pro user.

SC-88 Pro Users

The SC-88 Pro user may not yet be aware of incompatibility issues. After all, everything you

create sounds right on all SC-88 Pro’s. We will talk about accommodating earlier generations

of the sound canvas first and then last we will deal with the need to be compatible with possible

future generations of the Roland Sound Canvas.

Accommodating SC-55 and SC-88 Users

There is no backward compatibility. If you use any unique SC-88 Pro sounds or employ the use

of insertion effects, then former generations of the Sound Canvas can only get a gist of what

your sequence was created to sound like.
