Decimal and Hexadecimal table
(An “H” is appended to the end of numbers in hexadecimal notation.)In MIDI documentation, data values are expressed as hexadecimal values for each 7bits.The following table shows how these correspond to decimal numbers.
fig.11-22e
* The decimal expression of the MIDI channel, program change, etc., is one greaterthan the decimal value shown in the table above.* The hexadecimal expression for each 7 bits allows a maximum of 128 steps (0–127) to be expressed by one byte of data. Multiple bytes are used if the datarequires greater resolution than this. For example, a value expressed by two 7-bitbytes “aa” and “bbH” would be aa x 128 + bb.* In the case of signed (+/-) data, 00H = -64, 40H = +/-0, and 7FH = +63; i.e., avalue 64 less than the decimal value shown in the above table is used. In the caseof a two-byte value, 00 00H = -8192, 40 00 = +/-0, and 7F 7F = +8191. Forexample, a value of “aa” and “bbH” would have a decimal expression of aa bbH- 40 00H = aa x 128 + bb - 64 x 128.
<Example1>
What is the decimal expression of 5AH?From the preceding table, 5AH = 90.
<Example2>
What is the decimal expression of the 7-bit hexadecimal value 12 34H?From the preceding table, 12H = 18, and 34H = 52. Thus, this is 18 x 128 + 52 = 2356
