the message has a value vv=64 [40], the setting will have the
value that was set by the program parameter.)
• In Combination and Multi modes, transmission/
reception can be turned on/off independently for each
timbre/track ( p.42, 60 "Realtime Control Knob1, 2, 3,
4").
In Program mode, the corresponding program parame-
ters will be temporarily edited by these messages. You
can Write the program to save the modified state
(except for certain parameters). The Write operation can
also be performed by a MIDI exclusive Program Write
Request message, in addition to the usual method of
using the TRITON-Rack's switches. When you write
the data, the values of the corresponding program
parameters will be rewritten.
The results of receiving these messages will depend on
the instrument. The operation may be different when a
device other than the TRITON-rack is connected.
Silencing all notes on a specific channel
All note off (CC#123) [Bn, 7B, 00] (value 00)
When this is received, all currently-sounding notes on that
channel will be turned off (as though the keys had been
released). However, the release portion of the notes will
remain.
All sound off (CC#120) [Bn, 78, 00] (value 00)
When this is received, all currently-sounding notes on that
channel will be silenced. While the All Note Off message
allows the release portion of the notes to remain, the All
Sound Off message will silence the notes immediately.
However, these messages are provided for emergency use,
and are not something that you will use while performing.
Resetting all controllers on a specific channel
Reset all controllers (CC#121) [Bn, 79, 00] (value 00)
When this is received, the value of all controllers on that
channel will be reset.

Using RPN to edit

RPN (Registered Parameter Number) is a type of message
that allows settings to be made in a way that is common
between instrument manufacturers. (NRPN (Non-registered
Parameter Numbers) and exclusive messages can be freely
used in non-compatible ways by different manufacturers
and models of instrument.)
RPN messages can be used for editing with the following
procedure.
1 Use RPN MSB (CC#101) [Bn, 65, mm] and RPN LSB
(CC#100) [Bn, 64, rr] (n: channel, mm, rr: upper and
lower bytes of the parameter number) messages to select
the parameter.
2 Use data entry MSB (CC#6) [Bn, 06, mm] and data entry
LSB (CC#38) [Bn, 26, vv] (n: channel, mm, vv: upper and
lower bytes of the value, together expressing 16,384 lev-
els) to specify the value.
3 You can use data increment (CC#96) [Bn, 60,00] or data
decrement (CC#97) [Bn, 61, 00] (n: channel, value is
fixed at 00) to change the value in steps of one.
The TRITON-Rack can receive the following three RPN mes-
sages (tuning, transpose, and pitch bend range).
Tuning
RPN fine tune [Bn, 65, 00, 64, 01]
This RPN message can be used to adjust the detuning for a
program or timbre (in Combination mode), or for a track (in
Multi modes).
The procedure is as follows.
1 [Bn, 65, 00, 64, 01]: Select RPN parameter 01.
2 [Bn, 06, mm, 26, vv]: Use data entry to set the value. A
value of 8192 [mm, vv=40, 00] is center, 0 [mm, vv=00,
00] is -100 cents, and 16383 [mm, vv=7F, 7F] is +100
cents.
You can use the universal exclusive Fine Tune message
to adjust the overall tuning that corresponds to the
GLOBAL 1.1–1a "Master Tune" parameter. ( p.226
"About system exclusive messages")
Transposing
RPN coarse tune [Bn, 65, 00, 64, 02]
This RPN message can be used to adjust the transposition
for a program or timbre (in Combination mode), or for a
track (in Multi mode).
The procedure is as follows.
1 [Bn, 65, 00, 64, 02]: Select RPN parameter 02.
2 [Bn, 06, mm, 26, vv]: Use data entry to set the value.
Normally only the upper byte is used.
A value of 8192 [mm, vv=40, 00] is center, 6656 [mm, vv=34,
00] is -12 semitones, and 9728 [mm, vv=4C, 00] is +12 semi-
tones.
You can use the universal exclusive Coarse Tune mes-
sage to adjust the overall tuning that corresponds to the
GLOBAL 1.1–1a "Key Transpose" parameter. ( p.226
"About system exclusive messages")
Changing the pitch bend range
RPN pitch bend range [Bn, 64, 00, 65, 00]
This RPN message can be used to adjust the pitch bend
range for a program or timbre (in Combination mode) or for
a track (in Multi modes).
The procedure is as follows.
1 [Bn, 65, 00, 64, 00]: Select RPN parameter 00.
2 [Bn, 06, mm, 26, vv]: Use data entry to set the value.
Normally only the upper byte is used.
A value of 0 [mm, vv=00, 00] is +00, and a value of 1536
[mm, vv=0C, 00] is +12 (one octave). Although it is possible
to set a negative value for a timbre/track, only positive val-
ues can be set using RPN messages.

Controlling the arpeggiator (NPRN)

Arpeggiator operations can be controlled using NRPN (Non
Registered Parameter Number) messages. NRPN messages
can be freely used in non-compatible ways by different man-
ufacturers and models of instrument.
The procedure for using NRPN messages is the same as for
RPN, but you will use NRPN MSB (CC#99) [Bn, 63, mm]
and NRPN LSB (CC#98) [Bn, 62, rr] messages (n: channel,
mm, rr: upper and lower bytes of the parameter number) to
specify the parameter.
