You can adjust the Chorus send level of specified channel.
This message is ignored when "Receive control change" of the system common is OFF.
• NRPN MSB/LSB
Status Second Third
BnH 63H mmH
BnH 62H llH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H — FH (ch.1 — ch.16)
mm = MSB of the specified parameter by NRPN
ll = LSB of the specified parameter by NRPN
When the power is turned on, or "General MIDI System On" is received, Rx.NRPN will be set OFF, and NRPN will not
be received.
When "GS reset" or Rx.NRPN = ON is received,NRPN can be received.
The value set by NRPN will not be reset even if Program change or Reset all controller is received.
** NRPN **
The NRPN (Non Registered Parameter number) message allows an extended range of control changes to be used, let-
ting you use control messages which are not part of the MIDI Specification and may be unique to an individual
model. To use these messages, you must first use NRPN MSB and NRPN LSB message to specify the parameter to be
controlled, and then use Data Entry messages to specify the value of the specified parameter. Once an NRPN para-
meter has been specified, all Data Entry messages 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
setting the value of the desired parameter.
On This module, the following NRPN can be received.

Parameters marked "relative change" change relative to the preset value (40H). Even among different GS devices,
"relative change" parameters may sometimes differ in the way the sound changes or in the range of change.
Parameters marked "absolute change" will be set to the absolute value of the parameter, regardless of the preset
value.
• RPN MSB/LSB
Status Second Third
BnH 65H mmH

n = MIDI channel number: 0H — FH (ch.1 — ch.16)
mm = MSB of the specified parameter by RPN
ll = LSB of the specified parameter by RPN
** RPN **
RPN (registered parameter number) is a parameter number of tone color or musical expression defined in MIDI spec-
ification.
With the Sound Expansion Series as the receiver,RPN#0 (pitch bend sensitivity), RPN#1 (fine tuning) and RPN#2
(coarse tuning) are effective. when sending an RPN to the Sound Expansion Series,first specify the MSB and LSB of
the RPN to be used to control a parameter and then set the value in the data entry field.
RPN Data entry Description
MSB LSB MSB LSB
00H 00H mmH — Pitch bend sensitivity
mm: 00H — 0CH (0 — 12 semitone)

You can adjust "BENDER — RANGE DOWN" and "BENDER — RANGE UP" at same
time.
In the rhythm part (part8), this message is not recognized.

In the patch mode, the master tune is adjusted.
In the performance mode, fine tune at each part is adjusted.
In the performance mode, when received as specified control channel, the master
tune is adjusted.
00H 02H mmH — Coarse tuning
mm: 10H — 40H — 70H (–48 — 0 — +48 semitone)

If the part which MIDI receive channel is set the same as the control channel, the performance is changed when
receive the program change message.
