------------------
Using The Peavey pc1600x as a Roland MC 303 Controller.

This package contains the following files:

1600x_MC303_Drums.syx
1600x_MC303_Bass.syx
1600x_MC303_Drums.txt
1600x_MC303_Bass.txt
1600x_MC303.txt (You are reading this textfile now)
1600x-MC303-Demo.mid (Standard Midi-File for use in any sequencer)
1600x-MC303-Demo.all (Cubase Song-File)

Read 1600x_MC303_Bass.txt and 1600x_MC303_Drums.txt for informations about 
the fader and button setup.

Dump the 2 .syx - Files to your Peavey PC 1600x.

Start your sequencer and load the .mid-File (or .all-File if you use Cubasis/Cubase)
Switch the Midioutports to your MC303-Port.
Move your cursor to the track named "Peavey" (On this track the Midi Channel is set to ´all´)
Allow your sequencer to send sysex-strings. (In Cubase this function is default switched to ´OFF´)
Press button 16 on PC 1600x (Preset MC 303 Bass or MC 303 Drums) to switch 
into ´Sound Module Mode´. 
It is recommended to use this presets always in ´Sound Module Mode´ because the MC303 will work better in ´Sound Module´ than in ´Normal Mode´.
In ´Normal Mode´ the Midi-Timing is not correct when you slide the faders fast or when you use 
2 faders at the same time.

Now start the song and play around with the two Presets, Faders and Buttons.

For the future I will program presets with 2 Drumsets and one Bass like Rebirth.
It is possible to use on channel 10 i.e. ´808 Drumset´ and on channel 11 ´909 Drumset´
at the same time.

Have fun ;-)

More Presets will following soon.
