The Basics

The NanoBass receives on one MIDI channel at a time, which is set by the
CHANNEL knob on the front panel.
During MIDI playback you can change categories and programs at any time,
either by sending Bank Select or Program Change messages, or by turning the
CATEGORY or PROGRAM knobs on the front panel.
There are 256 programs in the NanoBass. But there are only 128 MIDI program
numbers (000-127). To make it possible to activate any of the 256 programs via
MIDI, they have been separated into two BANKS of 128 programs each.
The first bank is selected by sending a Controller 0 command (Bank Select) with
a value of either 0 or 1. This bank consists of the eight categories listed on the
right side of the CATEGORY knob:
Acoustic
Fretless / Harmonic
Elec 1
Elec 2
Elec 3
Funk
Acid
House
The second bank is selected by sending a Controller 0 command (Bank Select)
with a value of 2. This bank consists of the eight categories listed on the left side
of the CATEGORY knob:
Rap
