The short explanation:

Function of the input. It can be set to Normal, PrgChg or CutOff. Default is Normal.

When set to PrgChg it has no effect on Head/Bow inputs. On switch type Rim/Edge inputs this option activates Program Change support. To activate the Program Change support:
1. Configure the input either as a dual piezo/switch pad or as a Yamaha style 3 zone cymbal.
2. On a Rim/Edge input set Function to PrgChg.
3. Set ANote to a number which will limit the Program Change lowest number.
4. Set PNote to a number which will limit the Program Change highest number.
Pressing the edge switch will send MIDI Program Change messages on each press in the upwards direction between ANote and PNote values. Pressing the bell switch (if the edge and bell switches are wired as in a Yamaha style 3 zone cymbal and configured accordingly) will send MIDI Program Change messages on each press in the downwards direction between ANote and PNote values. Of course, it doesn't have to be a real Yamaha type 3 zone pad/cymbal, it just needs switches connected to the rim/edge input as in a Yamaha type 3 zone cymbal, i.e. one switch connected directly and the second switch connected over a 10k resistor. It will work with only one switch as well but it will only cycle in upwards direction going to a ANote value again after reaching PNote value. Sent kit (PC number + 1) is shown on the LCD when Program Change message is sent.

When set to CutOff the 'ANote' setting changes it meaning to 'cut off' level - hits with velocities below level set in 'ANote' will not trigger Note On/Off messages.


The long explanation and discussion read in http://www.megadrum.info/forums/viewtop ... f=3&t=1898
