Apart from the preassigned controllers above, MIDI CC# 0-119 are assigned to module parameters by the user in each patch, so no patch parameter can be listed. Each slot (A-D) plays and takes Program Change (patch, banks via CC#32) on its own channel; on the Global MIDI channel (Off at the factory) notes play like the keyboard and Program Change loads a performance. Patch and performance dumps (20H/28H, split in blocks with a 7-bit sum) arrive as /sysex/raw; sending them back is not exposed (they are whole files). Untested on hardware.",
