Arguments
port[symbol]
optional
Specifies the port (a-z) from which to receive incoming program change messages. If there is no argument, pgmin receives from all channels on all ports.
device[symbol]
optional
The name of a MIDI input device may be used as the first argument to specify the port. The name 'all' can be used to enable the reception of MIDI messages from any port. The name 'none' can be used to prevent the object from receiving MIDI messages from any port.
port-channel[list]
optional
A letter (a-z) and number combination (separated by a space) indicates a port and a specific MIDI channel on which to receive program change messages. Channel numbers greater than 16 will be wrapped around to stay within the 1-16 range.
channel[int]
optional
A number alone can be used in place of a letter and number combination. The exact meaning of the channel number argument depends on the channel offset specified for each port in the MIDI Setup dialog.

Output
int
If a specific channel number is included in the argument, there is only one outlet. The output is the incoming program number on the specified channel and port. Note: The pgmin object always adds 1 to the incoming program number. Thus, an incoming program change value of 32 will come out the outlet of pgmin as 33.
If there is no channel number specified by the argument, pgmin will have a second outlet, on the right, which will output the channel number of the incoming program change message.
