•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.

• The value set by NRPN will not be reset even if Program Change or Reset All Controllers is received.

•Not received when “NRPN” RX Event is Off.

**NRPN** The NRPN (Non Registered Parameter Number) message allows an extended range of control changes to be used. On the JM-8, 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 Entry messages (Controller number 6) to specify the value of the specified parameter. Once an NRPN parameter 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 the JM-8, Data entry LSB (Controller number 38) of NRPN is ignored, so it is no problem to send Data entry MSB (Controller number 6) only (without Data entry LSB). On the JM-8, NRPN can be used to modify the following parameters:

• The value specified by RPN will not be reset even by messages such as Program Change or Reset All Controller.

**RPN** The RPN (Registered Parameter Number) messages are expanded control changes, and each function of an RPN is described by the MIDI Standard. To use these messages, you must first use RPN (Controller number 101 and 100, their order does not matter) to specify the parameter to be controlled, and then use Data Entry messages (Controller number 6, 38) to specify the value of the specified parameter. Once an RPN parameter 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 to Null (RPN Number= 7FH 7FH) when you have finished setting the value of the desired parameter.

**NRPN** The NRPN (Non Registered Parameter Number) message allows you to use an extended range of control changes, which are not defined by the MIDI specification. NRPNs provide a great deal of freedom, and can be used with any manufacturer’s devices. As a result, any particular parameter number can easily mean one thing when used for a certain device, and mean something completely different on another device. Note that RPNs and NRPNs require that a multiple number of messages be processed in the correct order. However, a majority of the sequencers currently on the market cannot always be relied on to consistently send messages in the proper order if the messages are located at almost exactly the same point in time.

• PITCH OFFSET FINE allows you to alter, by a specified frequency amount, the pitch at which notes will sound. This parameter differs from the conventional Fine Tuning (RPN #1) parameter in that the amount of frequency alteration (in Hertz) will be identical no matter which note is played. When a multiple number of Parts, each of which has been given a different setting for PITCH OFFSET FINE, are sounded by means of an identical note number, you can obtain a Celeste effect.

•Decimal values such as MIDI channel, bank select, and program change are listed as one greater than the values given in the above table.

•A 7-bit byte can express data in the range of 128 steps. For data where greater precision is required, we must use two or more bytes. For example, two hexadecimal numbers aa bbH expressing two 7-bit bytes would indicate a value of aa x 128+bb.

• In the case of values which have a +/– sign, 00H = –64, 40H = +/–0, and 7FH = +63, so that the decimal expression would be 64 less than the value given in the above chart. In the case of two types, 00 00H = –8192, 40 00H = +/–0, and 7F 7FH = +8191. For example, if aa bbH were expressed as decimal, this would be aa bbH - 40 00H = aa x 128+bb –64 x 128.

•Data marked “Use nibbled data” is expressed in hexadecimal in 4-bit units. A value expressed as a 2-byte nibble 0a 0bH has the value of a x 16+b.

[Example 1]

What is the decimal expression of 5AH ?

From the preceding table, 5AH = 90

[Example 2]

What is the decimal expression of the value 12 34H given as hexadecimal for each 7 bits? From the preceding table, since 12H = 18 and 34H = 52 18 x 128+52 = 2356

[Example 3]

What is the decimal expression of the nibbled value 0A 03 09 0D ? From the preceding table, since 0AH = 10, 03H = 3, 09H = 9, 0DH = 13 ((10 x 16+3) x 16+9) x 16+13 = 41885

[Example 4]

What is the nibbled expression of the decimal value 1258?

16) 1258

16) 78 ... 10

16) 4 ... 14 0 … 4 Since from the preceding table, 0 = 00H, 4 = 04H, 14 = 0EH, 10 = 0AH, the result is: 00 04 0E 0AH.

● Examples of actual MIDI messages

[Example 1]

9n is the Note-on status, and n is the MIDI channel number. Since 2H = 2, 3EH= 62, and 5FH = 95, this is a Note-on message with MIDI CH = 3, note number 62 (note name is D4), and velocity 95.

[Example 2]

CnH is the Program Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. Since EH = 14 and 49H = 73, this is a Program Change message with MIDI CH = 15, program number 74 (Flute in GS).

[Example 3]

EnH is the Pitch Bend Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. The 2nd byte (00H = 0) is the LSB and the 3rd byte (28H = 40) is the MSB, but Pitch Bend Value is a signed number in which 40 00H (= 64 x 12+80 = 8192) is 0, so this Pitch Bend Value is 28 00H - 40 00H = 40 x 12+80 - (64 x 12+80) = 5120 –8192 = –3072 If the Pitch Bend Sensitivity is set to 2 semitones, -8192 (00 00H) will cause the pitch to change -200 cents, so in this case -200 x (-3072) ÷ (-8192) = -75 cents of Pitch Bend is being applied to MIDI channel 11.

[Example 4]

BnH is the Control Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. For Control Changes, the 2nd byte is the control number, and the 3rd byte is the value. In a case in which two or more messages consecutive messages have the same status, MIDI has a provision called “running status” which allows the status byte of the second and following messages to be omitted. Thus, the above messages have the following meaning.

B3 64 00 MIDI ch.4, lower byte of RPN parameter number: 00H (B3) 65 00 (MIDI ch.4) upper byte of RPN parameter number: 0 0H (B3) 06 0C (MIDI ch.4) upper byte of parameter value: 0CH

JM-8 MIDI Implementation

(B3) 26 00 (MIDI ch.4) lower byte of parameter value: 00H (B3) 64 7F (MIDI ch.4) lower byte of RPN parameter number: 7FH (B3) 65 7F (MIDI ch.4) upper byte of RPN parameter number: 7FH

In other words, the above messages specify a value of 0C 00H for RPN parameter number 00 00H on MIDI channel 4, and then set the RPN parameter number to 7F 7FH.

RPN parameter number 00 00H is Pitch Bend Sensitivity, and the MSB of the value indicates semitone units, so a value of 0CH = 12 sets the maximum pitch bend range to ±12 semitones (1 octave). (On GS sound generators the LSB of Pitch Bend Sensitivity is ignored, but the LSB should be transmitted anyway (with a value of 0) so that operation will be correct on any device.) Once the parameter number has been specified for RPN or NRPN, all Data Entry messages transmitted on that same channel will be valid, so after the desired value has been transmitted, it is a good idea to set the parameter number to 7F 7FH to prevent accidents. This is the reason for the (B3) 64 7F (B3) 65 7F at the end. It is not desirable for performance data (such as Standard MIDI File data) to contain many events with running status as given in [Example 4]. This is because if playback is halted during the song and then rewound or fast-forwarded, the sequencer may not be able to transmit the correct status, and the sound generator will then misinterpret the data. Take care to give each event its own status. It is also necessary that the RPN or NRPN parameter number setting and the value setting be done in the proper order. On some sequencers, events occurring in the same (or consecutive) clock may be transmitted in an order different than the order in which they were received. For this reason it is a good idea to slightly skew the time of each event (about 1 tick for TPQN = 96, and about 5 ticks for TPQN = 480). * TPQN: Ticks Per Quarter Note

● Example of an Exclusive message checksum calculation

Roland Exclusive messages (RQ1, DT1) are transmitted with a checksum at the end (before F7) to make sure that the message was correctly received. The value of the checksum is determined by the address and data (or size) of the transmitted Exclusive message.

How to calculate the checksum (hexadecimal numbers are indicated by “H”)

❍

The checksum is a value derived by adding the address, size, and checksum itself and inverting the lower 7 bits. Here’s an example of how the checksum is calculated. We will assume that in the exclusive (SysEx) message we are transmitting, the address is aa bb ccH and the data or size is “dd ee ffH”.

aa+bb+cc+dd+ee+ff = sum sum ÷ 128 = quotient ... remainder 128 – remainder = checksum

[Example 1]

According to the “Patch parameters” on page 11, the REVERB MACRO Address is “40 01 30H”, and ROOM 3 corresponds to “02H”. Thus…

Setting REVERB MACRO to “ROOM 3”

F0 41 10 42 12 40 01 30 02 ?? F7 (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) address data checksum (6)

[Example 2]

According to the “Patch parameters” on page 11, the REVERB LEVEL Address is “40 01 33H”, and the parameter value is “0CH”. Thus,

F0 41 10 42 12 40 01 33 0C ?? F7 (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) address data checksum (6)

(1) Exclusive Status (2) ID (Roland) (3) Device ID (17) (4) Model ID (GS) (5) Command ID (DT1) (6) EOX

Next we calculate the checksum.

40H + 01H + 33H + 0CH=64 + 1 + 51 + 12=128 (sum) 128 (sum) ÷ 128 = 0 (quotient) ... 0 (remainder)

checksum = 128 - 0 (remainder) = 128 = 80H In this case, however, the checksum value should be 00H, not 80H. You should use 00H if the remainder is 0. This means that F0 41 10 42 12 40 01 33 0C 00 F7 is the message we transmit.

Setting REVERB LEVEL to “12”

● About the Tuning

In MIDI, individual Parts are tuned by sending RPN #1 (Master Fine Tuning) to the appropriate MIDI channel. In MIDI, an entire device is tuned by either sending RPN #1 to all MIDI channels being used, or by sending a System Exclusive MASTER TUNE (address 40 00 00H). RPN #1 allows tuning to be specified in steps of approximately 0.012 cents (to be precise, 100/8192 cent), and System Exclusive MASTER TUNE allows tuning in steps of 0.1 cent. One cent is 1/100th of a semitone. The values of RPN #1 (Master Fine Tuning) and System Exclusive MASTER TUNE are added together to determine the actual pitch sounded by each Part. Frequently used tuning values are given in the following table for your reference. Values are in hexadecimal (decimal in parentheses).

Hz at A4 cents RPN #1 Sys.Ex. 40 00 00

445.0 +19.56 4C 43 (+1603) 00 04 0C 04 (+196)

444.0 +15.67 4A 03 (+1283) 00 04 09 0D (+157)

443.0 +11.76 47 44 (+ 964) 00 04 07 06 (+118)

442.0 + 7.85 45 03 (+ 643) 00 04 04 0F (+79)

441.0 + 3.93 42 42 (+ 322) 00 04 02 07 (+39)

440.0 0 40 00 (0) 00 04 00 00 (0)

438.0 - 7.89 3A 7A (- 646) 00 03 0B 01 (–79)

[Example]

Send RPN#1 to MIDI channel 3. From the above table, the value is 45 03H.

Setting the tuning of MIDI channel 3 to A4 = 442.0 Hz

B2 64 00 MIDI ch.3, lower byte of RPN parameter number: 00H

(B2) 65 01 (MIDI ch.3) upper byte of RPN parameter number: 01H

(B2) 06 45 (MIDI ch.3) upper byte of parameter value: 45H

(B2) 26 03 (MIDI ch.3) lower byte of parameter value: 03H

(B2) 64 7F (MIDI ch.3) lower byte of RPN parameter number: 7FH

(B2) 65 7F (MIDI ch.3) upper byte of RPN parameter number: 7FH

(1) Exclusive Status (2) ID (Roland) (3) Device ID (17) (4) Model ID (GS) (5) Command ID (DT1) (6) End of Exclusive

Next, we calculate the checksum.

40H+01H+30H+02H = 64+1+48+2 = 115 (sum) 115 (sum) ÷ 128 = 0 (quotient) ... 115 (remainder)

checksum = 128 - 115 (remainder) = 13 = 0DH This means that F0 41 10 42 12 40 01 30 02 0D F7 is the message we need to transmit.

JM-8 MIDI Implementation

INDIVIDUAL PARAMETER TRANSMISSION XV GENERATION (Model ID JM-8 = 00H, 00H, 08H)

Individual Parameter Transmission transmits data (or requests data) for one parameter as one exclusive message (one packet of “F0…F7”). In Individual Parameter Transmission, you must use the Address and Size listed in the following “Parameter Address Map”. Addresses marked at "#" cannot be used as starting addresses.
