Re-assigning Program Change Numbers in the Order of Patches
If you have repeatedly changed the original settings of 
patches and re-written them to different memory locations, 
or have otherwise reordered the patches, the Program 
Change numbers “(MIDI [PC])” assigned to the patches no 
longer correspond to their actual order.
If you want the fixed reception program change numbers to 
once again correspond to the patch numbers starting at the 
first patch, use the following procedure to reassign the 
transmission program change numbers (to the factory 
settings) starting at the first patch.
* Please note that performing this operation causes all prior 
“MIDI [PC]” settings for the patches to be lost.
Re-assigning Program Change Numbers in 
the Order of Patches
1. Press [SYSTEM] to enter System mode.
2. Press [PARAMETER] to select “FACTORY RESET.”
fig.10-01
3. Turn [VALUE] to select “PC Number.”
4. Press [WRITE].
The message “Sure ?” appears, asking you to confirm 
that you want to perform the Factory Reset operation.
fig.10-02
5. To perform the operation, press [WRITE] again.
“Now Writing...” appears in the display. In a moment, 
the GR-33 automatically returns to Play mode, 
completing the factory Reset.
The patches’ Program Change numbers are re-assigned 
in sequence starting from the first patch (1, 2, 3,..., 127, 
128). (All Control Change No. 0 (MIDI[CC0]) and No. 32 
(MIDI[CC32]) values are returned to “0” for the sending 
of Bank Select messages for user patches.)
To cancel the operation, press any button other than 
[WRITE].
Terminating Transmission of the MIDI Controller No. 7 (Volume)
Control Change No. 7 is used not only for sending changes 
from the GK-2A’s volume knob, but also for sending data 
from its “SYNTH - MIX - GUITAR” selector switch. You may 
occasionally encounter a MIDI-capable effects processor that 
cannot be set to ignore Control Change No. 7 volume control 
messages.
If this occurs, it will require your attention, because when the 
GR-33 has been connected via MIDI cables to an external 
effects processor—for the processing of guitar sounds and 
MIDI control of the external effects—setting the selector 
switch on the GK-2A to “GUITAR” may mute the guitar 
sound, not just the synth sound.
When using the GR-33 in combination with a processor that 
cannot block out Control Change No. 7 messages, follow the 
steps below to prevent the GR-33 from sending this type of 
data.
