About the Drum Sets Provided by a GS Sound Module
 
The Drum Channel (ch. 10) provides for the use of several Variation Sets in addition to the 
basic Drum Set (Standard Set: PC #1). Drum Sets are selected using Program Change 
messages. The types of Variation Sets that are made available will be different depending on 
the sound module. Refer to the manual for the module you are using so you know what 
kinds of drum sets it contains.
 
* If a Variation Tone or Variation Drum Set you have requested is not found in the GS module you are 
using, the module may not sound at all, or an incorrect sound may be played.
 
 
Main Features
 
Superb Playability and Expressiveness
 
Since this standard 49-key keyboard also provides response to velocity, it allows you to 
express even the finest nuances. In addition, an Octave Shift feature allows you to 
conveniently shift the soundable range up or down by an octave. Moreover, it is equipped 
with a pitch/modulation wheel, and provides a jack for connecting a damper pedal.
 
Complete Range of Control Features
 
Since the keyboard provides for sound selections that use combinations of Program Change 
and Bank Select messages (value for CC 00 and CC 32), you can also select any of the 
Variation Tones that may be available on a GS sound module.
In addition, a variety of continuous controllers (Control Changes) can be assigned to the data 
entry slider. The slider can then be used for variable control over the desired parameter 
(reverb or chorus depth, for example) on a GS sound module.
Viewing the contents of the LED display allows you to operate easily and precisely.
 
Makes Desk Top Music (DTM) More Enjoyable
 
The PC-70 is very compact, so it requires only a minimal amount of desktop space. The 
keyboard is sure to become an invaluable part of any DTM setup, since it can be used for 
real-time or step recording, as well as for practice while listening to “minus-one” playback.
