MIDI System Exclusive Message Formats
In the explanations, below, braces < > are used to represent enclosed MIDI data bytes. Concatenated data is shown by < > < >. Names are also enclosed in braces as symbolic representations defined further into the explanation. Values are decimal unless an H is used to denote Hexadecimal values.
For example, the MIDI bytes to select song mode for DEVICE NUMBER 3 are: F0H, 0, 1, 26H, 3, 1, F7H.
<sys ex message> | = <F0H> <manufacturer> <device num> |
| <message bytes> <F7H> |
<manufacturer> | = <0 1 26H> |
<device num> | = one byte in range 0 to 15. Must match |
| SYSEX DEVICE NUMBER set in the |
<message bytes> | = <0> to select program mode. |
or | <1> to select song mode. |
or | <2> bypass on |
or | <3> bypass off |
or | <4><14><system data> |
or | <5><31><program data> |
or | <6><34><song data> |
