NS3 program changing

Post by metronomus »

Hi guys,

what Do You think about program change method in NS3

I think that's wrong to delete Bank change buttons. If I want to change program from top list to bottom I have to push Page select near 1 minutes.... It's crazy!

What do You think about it?

Use the dial. If you turn it briskly (fast) it jumps from the current bank to the start of the next bank. So getting from A to H is just 7 quick turns...

You will probably find a number of people then simply copy/program what sounds they want into one bank (maybe Bank G & H) so they have all they need easily accessible.

...or you can use an app like Set List Maker on your smartphone/tablet to access programs.

But yeah, it's a shame the bank buttons are gone. It greatly reduces the number of sounds you can instantly get to with specific button presses.
