    Hi folks,
    I’ve been going through the manual trying to figure out how to send the correct midi info to the QU-16 to change scenes. The manual is rather….confusing.

    From what I can tell, I need to have Bank 1 selected and I think it has to send on channel 13 for scene changes. So to select for example scene 3, it seems like I need to send MIDI note D-1 on channel 13.

    So far that seems to do nothing. Any tip would be greatly appreciated!

    According to Qu MIDI Implementation (Page 8) scene changes are invoked using Program Change not Note messages.
    So with Qu configured on Channel 0, the required sequence is something like (all hex): B0 00 00 B0 20 00 C0 <nn>
    where <nn> is the scene to recall.
    And beware that some MIDI numbers are 1-based and others are 0-based.
