❍Modulation (Controller number 1)

1. Receive data

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte Bn H 01H vv H

■Channel Voice Messages

n = MIDI channel number: 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16) vv = Modulation depth: 00H-7FH (0-127)

●Note off Status 2nd byte 3rd byte

Not received when Rx.MODULATION = OFF. (Initial value is ON)

8n H kk H vv H

The resulting effect is determined by System Exclusive messages. With the initial

9n H kk H 00H

settings, this is Pitch Modulation Depth. ❍Portamento Time (Controller number 5)

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

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte

kk = note number: 00H-7FH (0-127)

Bn H 05H vv H

vv = note off velocity: 00H-7FH (0-127)

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

For Drum Parts, these messages are received when Rx.NOTE OFF = ON for each

vv = Portamento Time: 00H-7FH (0-127), Initial value = 00H (0)

Instrument. The velocity values of Note Off messages are ignored. This adjusts the rate of pitch change when Portamento is ON or when using the

Portamento Control. A value of 0 results in the fastest change.

●Note on

❍Data Entry (Controller number 6, 38)

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte

9n H kk H vv H Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte Bn H 06H mm H n = MIDI channel number: 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16) Bn H 26H ll H

kk = note number: 00H-7FH (0-127)

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

vv = note on velocity: 01H-7FH (1-127)

mm, ll = the value of the parameter specified by RPN/NRPN mm = MSB, ll = LSB

Not received when Rx.NOTE MESSAGE = OFF. (Initial value is ON) For Drum Parts, not received when Rx.NOTE ON = OFF for each Instrument.

❍Volume (Controller number 7) Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte

●Polyphonic Key Pressure

Bn H 07H vv H

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte An H kk H vv H

n = MIDI channel number: 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16) vv = Volume: 00H-7FH (0-127), Initial Value = 64H (100)

n = MIDI channel number: 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16) kk = note number: 00H-7FH (0-127) Volume messages are used to adjust the volume balance of each Part. vv = key pressure: 00H-7FH (0-127) Not received when Rx.VOLUME = OFF. (Initial value is ON)

Not received when Rx.POLY PRESSURE (PAf) = OFF. (Initial value is ON) ❍Pan (Controller number 10) The resulting effect is determined by System Exclusive messages. With the initial Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte settings, there will be no effect. Bn H 0AH vv H

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

●Control Change

vv = pan: 00H-40H-7FH (Left-Center-Right), Initial Value = 40H (Center)

When Rx.CONTROL CHANGE = OFF, all control change messages except for Channel Mode messages will be ignored.

For Rhythm Parts, this is a relative adjustment of each Instrument's pan setting.

The value specified by a Control Change message will not be reset even by a Program

Some Tones are not capable of being panned all the way to the left or right.

Change, etc.

Not received when Rx.PANPOT = OFF. (Initial value is ON)

❍Bank Select (Controller number 0, 32)

❍Expression (Controller number 11)

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte

Bn H 00H mm H

Bn H 0BH vv H

Bn H 20H ll H

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

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

vv = Expression: 00H-7FH (0-127), Initial Value = 7FH (127)

mm, ll = Bank number: 00H, 00H-7FH, 7FH (bank.1-bank.16384), Initial Value = 00 00H (bank.1)

This adjusts the volume of a Part. It can be used independently from Volume messages. Expression messages are used for musical expression within a performance;

Not received when Rx.BANK SELECT = OFF.

e.g., expression pedal movements, crescendo and decrescendo.

"Rx.BANK SELECT" is set to OFF by "GM1 System On," and Bank Select message will be

Not received when Rx.EXPRESSION = OFF. (Initial value is ON)

ignored. "Rx.BANK SELECT" is set to ON by "GM2 System On."

❍Hold 1 (Controller number 64)

"Rx.BANK SELECT" is set to ON by power-on Reset or by receiving "GS RESET."

Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte

When Rx.BANK SELECT LSB = OFF, Bank number LSB (ll H) will be handled as 00H

Bn H 40H vv H

regardless of the received value. However, when sending Bank Select messages, you have to send both the MSB (mm H) and LSB (ll H, the value should be 00H) together.

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

Bank Select processing will be suspended until a Program Change message is received.

vv = Control value: 00H-7FH (0-127)

The GS format "Variation number" is the value of the Bank Select MSB (Controller number 0) expressed in decimal.

Not received when Rx.HOLD1 = OFF. (Initial value is ON)

Some other GS devices do not recognize the Bank Select LSB (Controller number 32).

❍Portamento (Controller number 65) Status 2nd bytes 3rd byte Bn H 41H vv H

n = MIDI channel number: 0H-FH (ch.1-ch.16) vv = Control value: 00H-7FH (0-127) 0-63 = OFF, 64-127 = ON

Not received when Rx.PORTAMENTO = OFF. (Initial value is ON)
