Note numbers outside the range of 15-113 are transposed to the nearest octave within RPN MSB/LSB (Controller number 100, 101) this range.

●Control Change

n = MIDI channel number : 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16) mm = upper byte of parameter number specified by RPN (MSB)

The value specified by a Control Change message will not be reset even by a Program ll = lower byte of parameter number specified by RPN (LSB) Change, etc.

The value specified by RPN will not be reset even by messages such as Program Change or Reset All Controller.

Data Entry (Controller number 6, 38) Status 2nd byte 3rd byte

**RPN**

Bn H 06H mm H

The RPN (Registered Parameter Number) messages are expanded control changes, and each

Bn H 26H ll H

function of an RPN is described by the MIDI Standard. To use these messages, you must first use RPN MSB and RPN LSB messages to specify the

n = MIDI channel number : 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16)

parameter to be controlled, and then use Data Entry messages to specify the value of the

mm, ll = the value of the parameter specified by RPN

specified parameter. Once an RPN parameter has been specified, all Data Entry messages

mm = upper byte (MSB), ll = lower byte (LSB)

received on that channel will modify the value of that parameter. To prevent accidents, it is recommended that you set RPN Null (RPN Number = 7FH/7FH) when you have finished

Volume (Controller number 7) setting the value of the desired parameter. Status 2nd byte 3rd byte Bn H 07H vv H On the F-50, RPN can be used to modify the following parameters.

Expression (Controller number 11)

Set condition where RPN and NRPN are unspecified. The
