Thanks for the info. This means the RC-300 is much more powerfull then I
thought it was :) I checked the manual again (patch mode) and now I
understand what you mean.

Wow...that's really interesting. I want something similar: assigning
multiple control messages to a pedal and controlling different midi
devices. This is what you need when you are a live looper
Question: I suppose I can send program changes from a remote device to
select a patch on the RC-300? Btw: it's not my intension to send program
changes from the RC-300 to the other midi devices. I use a central 8*8
midi patchbay containing my midi setup per song of the setlist. Each song
contains the required midi setup including program changes, midi
re-channel info, splits etc.

You're 100% correct :) Thanks again for your help
