PCR Editor Under OS X

Edirol has released downloadable PCR Editor software for use with their PCR-30 & PCR-50 USB MIDI Keyboard Controllers. The PCR-Editor allows for convenient control of the PCR keyboards from a PC or Mac. The PCR-Editor is designed to assist in creating control maps for the PCR and allow users to quickly & easily make assignments to any of the 27 assignable controls. This software also allows the user to copy system exclusive messages for the PCR into a sequence so the controls can be mapped or changed during a sequence. In addition to offering easy implementation of different MIDI messages, the PCR-Editor also allows the user to specify minimum & maximum values for each control.

The PCR-Editor is available as a free download from the Edirol website at www.edirol.com and supports Win98/ME/2000/XP, Mac8.6-9.x & OS X.
