2.3ProgramandBankChanges
Program messages (commonly referred to as program changes) are used to select different instrument sounds in a MIDI device.
Program messages cover a range of 128 instruments. These instruments are accessed by sending program numbers 0 to 127.
Some MIDI devices have more than 128 instruments. If this is the case, the instruments tend to be separated into groups of 128, called
banks. You can send bank MSB and bank LSB messages to access these different banks. Please consult the user manual of your MIDI
device to see how the bank change numbers relate to the sounds on your device.
