hi Everyone,
Is it possible to send PC to VG-99 via patch mode without using midi cable?
Thanks!

The Sys Ex mode is the mode that communicates directly between the FC300 and the Vg99 via the RRC2 cable. Generic midi info is only sent by the midi out port of the FC300 in the other modes.

Someone else can chime in here but I'm pretty sure the other modes of the FC300 also send MIDI through the RC2 (Ethernet style) cable to the VG99 for retransmit via USB or MIDI. This is controlled in the MIDI routing setup. I may be wrong but I think the VG99 will respond to PC/CC commands sent via RC2 just like outboard gear does.

Right you are Musicman 65. If you go to system>Fc300>SysEx mode=off, the Vg responds to program change commands send in other modes.

Thank you all for the answers!
