To select Performances on the JV-80/90/880/1000 via MIDI, you will need to send a program change message on the Control Channel. The default value for the Control Channel is 16. It is a good idea to set your Control Channel to a different MIDI channel than any of your Parts in the Performance you are using. Otherwise, you may unintentionally select a new Performance while attempting to select Patches within that Performance.
Use the following procedure to set the Control Channel:
- Press PERFORMANCE.
- Press MIDI.
- CURSOR to "Ctrl-Ch." and use the INC/DEC buttons to select 1-16 or OFF.
