Program/Bank Switch commands in Triton legacy

[drpanties]

OK, please bear with me...Trying to use the Triton software as a replacement for my Triton Rack. The software's response to program change commands has me a bit flummoxed. I'd like to be able to call up the User banks of sounds via MIDI, but experimentation with Bank Switch commands has proved difficult. I can access the Factory Banks using CC 0 and CC 32 (values 0-3), and the EXB-PCM Banks using values 8-16. Whenever I discard the bank switch commands and use just program changes, the softward defaults to Factory Bank 1. Hope that is clear as mud. Can anyone else relate? Thx, P

Are you running Windoes or Mac. I just purchased the $399 Korg Collection. It installed perfectly and neither Ableton Live 10 orSonar Platinum recognizes the VST so I cannot do anything at this time.

I'm running it on a Mac; El Capitan. I run it in standalone, not as a plug in.

Just in case anyone else runs up against this same thing. I hit it also. Here is what I found..

Triton MIDI Mapping ( VST)
7 Bit (14 bit didn't work)
CC0 + CC32 + Program Change ( need three messages initially)
CC0 — once set — only need to change CC32
CC32 — once set — only need to do program change messages for the bank
Program Change MUST follow CC32 for bank to change

CC0: 0
CC32: 0-3 = Factory Banks A-D 8-16 = EXB PCM01-09 32-35 = User A-D
Program Change 0-127

CCO: 120
CC32: 0 = Drums
Program Change 0-127

CC0: 121
CC32: 0-9 = GM - GM(9)
Program Change 0-127

Anything other than these combinations = FACTORY BANK A

Oh man, you're my hero. Tried it, works perfectly. Wonder why they buried the control change values...probably so some schlub like me would chase his tail. How'd you figure it out? - Doc

Hey Doc -

Glad it helped. I cant recall where i dug that up from. Part of it, I figured out through trial and error - but not all. Somewhere, there was a push in the right direction. I am just paying it forward.

Cheers & stay safe-

Program Change MUST follow CC32 for bank to change

I just wanted to say a huge thanks for providing this information and solution.

Much appreciated!!
