SETUP

The SETUP.EXE program will automatically install all necessary files on your
hard drive.  If you are installing from floppy disk, run SETUP.EXE from the 
Windows Program Manager.  If you have a downloaded version, copy the zip
file POWER.ZIP into a temporary directory and unzip it using PKUNZIP.  Then
run SETUP.EXE form the Windows Program Manager.  The files and their
destinations are listed below:

    POWPAT.EXE          C:\POWPAT               Main program

REQUIREMENTS

PowerPatch requires an IBM or compatible computer running Windows 3.1
(PowerPatch may or may not run on earlier versions of Windows) and a MPU-401
or compatible MIDI interface.  Also required; two MIDI cables, and a mouse
is a big help.

I/O  PORT  ADDRESS

Some MPU-401 interfaces are equiped with changable I/O port address.  The
factory default is usually 330H/331H.  PowerPatch also defaults to
330H/331H.  If the address on the MPU differs, PowerPatch will not run.
You can change the PowerPatch default via the MPU option from the Setup pull
down menu.  The values assigned to the ports must be entered in decimal
(NOT hexidecimal) format.  The following table converts hexidecimal (the
16 digit numbering base) to decimal:

    330 in hex = 816 in dec     331 in hex = 817 in dec
    332 in hex = 818 in dec     333 in hex = 819 in dec
    334 in hex = 820 in dec     335 in hex = 821 in dec
    336 in hex = 822 in dec     337 in hex = 823 in dec

HINT:  The two port address text box fields are unique.  You must delete a 
character before you overtype it when changing the port addresses.

PowerPatch will work with any MPU-401 IRQ setting as long as it is correctly
configured within your hardware.

CONNECTIONS

Using a MIDI cable, connect one cable end to the MIDI OUT port of the 
MPU-401.  Connect the other end of the cable to the MIDI IN port on the RP-1.
Using a second MIDI cable, connect one cable end to the MIDI IN port of the
MPU-401.  Connect the other end of the cable to the MIDI OUT port on the
RP-1.

MIDI  CHANNEL

PowerPatch transmits MIDI messages on channel 1 by default.  However, this
can be changed via the MPU option from the Setup pull down menu.  The RP-1
receive channel must be set to the same as PowerPatch (or set to "all
chanels").  This is accomplished using the RP-1 MIDI setup menu, which is
accessed by pressing the <UTILITY> button and scrolling to the RP-1 MIDI
Channel sub menu.

GLOBAL  CONTINUOUS  CONTROLLERS

The RP-1's 92 parameters must be assigned to a unique continuous controller
number.  The numbers must correspond to the continuous controller messages
transmitted by PowerPatch.  The RP-1 parameters must be mapped as follows:

    Accent Delay            to CC 00    LFO Sweep Rate         to CC 47
    Bypass                  to CC 02    LFO Waveform           to CC 48

    LFO Sweep Depth         to CC 46    Subsequent Diffusion   to CC 92                         

** IMPORTANT **  Notice that CC 01 was skipped.  This was done because there
is an internal problem with the RP-1.  For some reason, CC 01 is linked to 
more than one effect parameter.
			   
All these parameters must be "linked global" to their corrosponding CC 
number.  This is accomplishd using the RP-1 MIDI setup menu, which is 
accessed by pressing the <UTILITY> button and scrolling to the global sub 
menu.  The sub menu should look as follows:

    +-----------------+    
    | Accent Delay    |   The RP-1 has a sub menu like this for all 92
    | to CC  1 Global |   parameters.
    +-----------------+

TEMPORARY  PROGRAM  ASSIGNMENT

PowerPatch uses a temporary program location as a work area.  The default 
temporary location is program 75.  You can change the default via the MPU 
option from the Setup pull down menu.  At any rate, which ever location you 
use, it will be routinely overwritten by PowerPatch.  Therefore, make sure 
there is nothing of value stored in the temporary program location.

POWERPATCH  CONTROLS

PowerPatch uses a single computer screen to graphically represent a RP-1
algorithm.  Algorithm effects and parameters are grouped by effect type and 
are arranged in roughly the same order as they appear when scrolling through
them on the RP-1.  There are three parameter control types:

Check Box 
    These boxes turn an effect on or off when mouse clicked. When an "X" 
    appears in the box, the effect is on.

Scroll Bars (Sliders) 
    These controls change the parameter values.  Using the mouse, click the 
    up-arrow, down-arrow, or the slider thumb to change the value.  The new 
    value will appear in the box above the slider.  

Option Buttons
    These buttons control "multiple choice" parameters such as Distortion 
    Type.  When you mouse click a button, the parameter type changes and the 
    new type is displayed in the box above.

POWERPATCH  FUNCTIONS

PowerPatch functions are accessed by mouse clicking a menu bar option and
then mouse clicking a sub option.  You can also use the "Alt" key followed 
by the underlined letter of the menu bar option, and then the underlined
letter of the menu bar sub option.

File 
    Lets you select file related functions.

New
    Clears (zeros) the algorithm both on screen, and within the RP-1.  New
    and Reset are identicle functions with one difference:  New prompts you
    to save the patch and Reset does not.

Save, Save As, and Open
    These functions are straight forward and work like you would expect them
    to work.  You can save and open the patch files like you would text
    files.  Two patch (PAT) files are included with PowerPatch,
    "MONSTER.PAT" and "BROONS.PAT".  
  
Print
    This will print (to a Windows compatible printer) the current algorithm
    and all it's current values.

Algorithm
    This menu bar option lets you select one of the eleven algorithms.  If
    you use the Import or Open function, the appropriate algorithm will auto- 
    matically be selected.

Unit
    Lets you select RP-1 (unit) related functions.

Export
    This function will download and store a patch in any one of the first
    75 program locations.  When a patch is exported to a program location, 
    the existing patch is overwritten.  The program location is specified in 
    the Patch Number field on the current algorithm screen.

Import
    This function will pull in any patch stored in any of the RP-1's 150
    program locations.  When this function is invoked, you will be prmpted
    for a patch (program) number.

Reset
    Clears (zeros) the algorithm both on screen, and within the RP-1.  New
    and Reset are identicle functions with one difference:  New prompts you
    to save the patch and Reset does not.

Resend
    This function will "resend" all algorithm values to the RP-1.  This is
    useful in situations where the RP-1 is turned off or manualy adjusted.

Setup
    Lets you select setup related functions.

MPU
    This utility allows you to change the PowerPatch port address
    assignments.  Values must be entered in decimal (not hexidecimal)
    formats.  It also lets you change the MIDI transmit channel and the
    temporary program location number.
