I'm using a Yamaha P90 in a live set-up that keeps both hands busy. I'm considering using an external foot MIDI controller (ex. Behringer FCB1010) to change the panel settings of the P90 through a program change MIDI command. Is this possible ? As a MIDI beginner, I thought it was basic, however the P90 manual suggests that this won't work (see manual, page 40 reads "Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the P-90’s panel settings or the notes you play on the keyboard.". Does this mean that it would only affect the sound played by Notes ON/OFF received through MIDI ? or will it effectively modify the panel settings as per the program change command and play the desired sound from the notes played on the keyboard ?
If this doesn't work, is there another way to modify the panel settings from an external MIDI command ?
