Evolver and OT Program change

Hi,

On the MD there was a nifty little trick that allowed you to mess with your kit and reset it back to its last saved parameters by pressing FUNCTION + CLASSIC/EXTENDED.
This meant you could be much more expressive while performing and create a radical reset.
I’m trying to recreate this with my Evolver.
Unfortunately, this synth doesn’t have this option.

I thought perhaps the OT could allow me to do this if i can have a P-Locked program change on one of my MIDI notes.
After all, I’ve done it a million times on the MD can do it so it should be an easy trick…
However, I’m unable to find the program change CC either in the Evolver’s manual nor in the Octatrack’s CCs list.

If you’ve wanted to achieve the same thing with your Evolver and have found a solution, i’d love to hear what you’ve come up with!
Same goes if you have managed to P-Lock a program change on the OT.

You can specify a program/bank number in a midi track. Double-tap playback and set bank/program. Unfortunately, these settings are stored per part, you need to switch parts or banks on the ot to trigger the program change.
