1.2.8 General Purpose 1, 2, 3, 4 (Control #016, 017, 018, 019) Control #016 are messages which are transmitted by operating the connected Foot Controller, used to control specific parameter such as voice parameters and Variation effect parameters. Control #017 and Control #018 are messages which are transmitted by operating the ASSIGN1 and ASSIGN2 knobs, respectively. Control #019 is undefined. 1.2.9 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. 1.2.10 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. 1.2.11 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. 1.2.12 Soft Pedal (Control #067) Messages which control soft pedal on/off. Notes played while holding the soft pedal will be dampened. Setting the value between 64 -127 turns the soft pedal on, between 0 - 63 turns the soft pedal off. 1.2.13 Harmonic Content (Control #071) Messages which adjust the filter resonance set for each voice. 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. 1.2.14 Release Time (Control #072) Messages which adjust the EG release time set for each voice. The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or subtracted from the voice data. 1.2.15 Attack Time (Control #073) Messages which adjust the EG attack time set for each voice. The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or subtracted from the voice data. 1.2.16 Brightness (Control #074) Messages which adjust the filter cutoff frequency set for each voice. The value set here is an offset value which will be added to or subtracted from the voice data. Lower values will result in a softer sound. Depending on the voice, the effective range may be narrower than the range available for adjustment. 1.2.17 Portamento Control (Control #084) Messages which apply a portamento between the currentlysounding note and the subsequent note. Portamento Control is transmitted specifying the note-on key of the currently-sounding note. Specify a Portamento Source Key number between 0 - 127. When a Portamento Control message is received, the currently sounding pitch will change with a Portamento Time of 0 to the next note-on key on the same channel. For example, the following settings would apply a portamento from note C3 to C4. 90H 3CH 7FH B0H 54H 3CH 90H 48H 7FH C3 Note on Source key number set to C3 C4 Note on (When C4 is on, C3 is raised by a portamento to C4.) 1.2.18 Effect1 Depth (Reverb Send Level) (Control #091) Messages which adjust the send level for the Reverb effect. 1.2.19 Effect3 Depth (Chorus Send Level) (Control #093) Messages which adjust the send level for the Chorus effect. 1.2.20 Effect4 Depth (Variation Effect Send Level) (Control #094) Messages which adjust the send level for the Variation effect. If Variation effect uses System effect, this message sets the send level for the Variation effect. If it uses Insertion effect, this setting is invalid. 1.2.21 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 are required 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.) 1.2.22 NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter Number)LSB (Control #098) NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter Number)MSB (Control #099) 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 1.2.4 Data Entry 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 an unexpected result. The following NRPN numbers can be received. 54
