About MIDI
MIDI Messages Transmitted/Recognized
Main Volume (Control #007)
Messages which control the volume of each Part.
Setting the value to 127 produces maximum volume and 0 results in
volume off.
Pan (Control #010)
Messages which control the stereo panning position of each Part (for
stereo output).
Setting the value to 127 positions the sound to the far right and 0
positions the sound to the far left.
Expression (Control #011)
Messages which control intonation expression of each Part during
performance.
Setting the value to 127 produces maximum volume and 0 results in
volume off.
Hold1 (Control #064)
Messages which control sustain on/off.
Setting the value between 64 - 127 turns the sustain on, between 0 - 63
turns the sustain off.
Portamento Switch (Control #065)
Messages which control portamento on/off.
Setting the value between 64 -127 turns the portamento on, between 0
- 63 turns the portamento off.
Sostenuto (Control #066)
Messages which control sostenuto on/off.
Holding specific notes and then pressing and holding the sostenuto
pedal will sustain those notes as you play subsequent notes, until the
pedal is released.
Setting the value between 64 -127 turns the sostenuto on, between 0 -
63 turns the sostenuto off.
Harmonic Content (Control #071)
Messages which adjust the filter resonance set for each Part.
The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or
subtracted from the Voice data. Higher values will result in a more
characteristic, resonant sound. Depending on the Voice, the effective
range may be narrower than the range available for adjustment.
Release Time (Control #072)
Messages which adjust the AEG release time set for each Part.
The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or
subtracted from the Voice data.
Attack Time (Control #073)
Messages which adjust the AEG attack time set for each Part.
The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or
subtracted from the Voice data.
Brightness (Control #074)
Messages which adjust the filter cutoff frequency set for each Part.
The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or
subtracted from the Voice data. Lower values result in a softer sound.
Depending on the Voice, the effective range may be narrower than the
range available for adjustment.
Decay Time (Control #075)
Messages which adjust the AEG decay time set for each Part. The
value set here is an offset value which will be added to or subtracted
from the Voice data.
Effect1 Depth (Reverb Send Level) (Control #091)
Messages which adjust the send level for the Reverb effect.

Owner's Manual
Effect3 Depth (Chorus Send Level) (Control #093)
Messages which adjust the send level for the Chorus effect.
Data Increment (Control #096)
Decrement (Control #097) for RPN
Messages which increase or decrease the MSB value of pitch bend
sensitivity, fine tune, or coarse tune in steps of 1. You will need to
assign one of those parameters using the RPN in the external device in
advance. The data byte is ignored. When the maximum value or
minimum value is reached, the value will not be incremented or
decremented further. (Incrementing the fine tune will not cause the
coarse tune to be incremented.)
NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter Number)
LSB (Control #098) (Plug-in Board only)
NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter Number)
MSB (Control #099) (Plug-in Board only)
Messages which adjust a Voice's vibrato, filter, EG, drum setup or
other parameter settings.
First send the NRPN MSB and NRPN LSB to specify the parameter
which is to be controlled. Then use Data Entry (page 93) to set the
value of the specified parameter.
Note that once the NRPN has been set for a channel, subsequent data
entry will be recognized as the same NRPN's value change. Therefore,
after you use the NRPN, you should set a Null (7FH, 7FH) value to
avoid unexpected results.
For details, refer to the owner's manual of the relevant Plug-in Board.
RPN (Registered Parameter Number) LSB (Control #100)
RPN (Registered Parameter Number) MSB (Control #101)
Messages which offset, or add or subtract values from a Part's pitch
bend sensitivity, tuning, or other parameter settings. First send the RPN
MSB and RPN LSB to specify the parameter which is to be controlled.
Then use Data Increment/Decrement (page 94) to set the value of the
specified parameter. Note that once the RPN has been set for a
channel, subsequent data entry will be recognized as the same RPN's
value change. Therefore after you use the RPN, you should set a Null
(7FH, 7FH) value to avoid unexpected results.
The following RPN numbers can be received.
