(no change)
❍ Cutoff (Controller number 74)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 4AH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
vv = Cutoff value (relative change): 00H - 40H - 7FH (-64 - 0 - +63), Initial value = 40H (no
change)
❍ Decay Time (Controller number 75)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 4BH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
vv = Decay Time value (relative change): 00H - 40H - 7FH (-64 - 0 - +63), Initial value = 40H
(no change)
❍ Vibrato Rate (Controller number 76)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 4CH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
vv = Vibrato Rate value (relative change): 00H - 40H - 7FH (-64 - 0 - +63), Initial value = 40H
(no change)
❍ Vibrato Depth (Controller number 77)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 4DH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)

❍ Vibrato Delay (Controller number 78)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 4EH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
vv = Vibrato Delay value (relative change): 00H - 40H - 7FH (-64 - 0 - +63), Initial value =
40H (no change)
❍ Portamento control (Controller number 84)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 54H
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
kk = source note number: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
* A Note-on received immediately after a Portamento Control message will change
continuously in pitch, starting from the pitch of the Source Note Number.
* If a voice is already sounding for a note number identical to the Source Note Number,
this voice will continue sounding (i.e., legato) and will, when the next Note-on is
received, smoothly change to the pitch of that Note-on.
* The rate of the pitch change caused by Portamento Control is determined by the
Portamento Time value.
Example 1.
On MIDI Description
90 3C 40 Note on C4
B0 54 3C Portamento Control from C4
90 40 40 Note on E4
80 3C 40 Note off C4
80 40 40 Note off E4
Example 2.
On MIDI Description
B0 54 3C Portamento Control from C4
90 40 40 Note on E4
80 40 40 Note off E4
❍ Effect 1 (Reverb Send Level) (Controller number 91)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 5BH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
vv = Reverb Send Level: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127), Initial value = 28H (40)
* This message adjusts the Reverb Send Level of each Part.
❍ Effect 3 (Chorus Send Level) (Controller number 93)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 5DH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
vv = Chorus Send Level: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127), Initial value = 00H (0)
* This message adjusts the Chorus Send Level of each Part.
❍ NRPN MSB/LSB (Controller number 99, 98)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 63H
BnH 62H
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - 16)
mm = upper byte (MSB) of parameter number specified by NRPN
ll = lower byte (LSB) of parameter number specified by NRPN
* Rx.NRPN is set to OFF by power-on reset or by receiving "GM1 System On" or "GM2
System On," and NRPN message will be ignored. NRPN message will be received when
Rx.NRPN = ON, or by receiving GS RESET.
* The value set by NRPN will not be reset even if Program Change or Reset All Controllers
is received.
** NRPN **
The NRPN (Non Registered Parameter Number) message allows an extended range of
control changes to be used. On the GW-7, NRPN messages can be used to modify sound
parameters, etc.
To use these messages, you must first use NRPN messages (Controller number 98 and 99,
their order does not matter) to specify the parameter to be controlled, and then use Data
