Use the Bank Select setting to select the MD-1600’s tone groups to be changed by the Program Number message.

Bank 0 — 0 to 127 (General MIDI tones)

Bank 1 — 128 to 159 (synthesized tones)

Bank 2 — 160 to 167 (drum sets)

Bank 3 — 168 to 199 (user tones)

Just before sending a Program Change message, send two Control Change messages with this data to the MD- 1600:

Control Number = 0, Control Value = <bank number>

Control Number = 32, Control Value

=0

For example, to select tone number 190 (user tone number 22), enter:

Control Number = 0, Control Value = 3 (bank number for user tone)

Control Number = 32, Control Value = 0

Program Change = 22 (22nd tone in bank 3)

Note: Channel 10 is reserved for drum sounds only, so it is not necessary to send bank select data when changing tones.

RPN is used when combining multiple control changes. RPN (100 and 101) se- lects the parameter to control, and Data Entry (6 and 38) sets the contents of the parameter. On the MD-1600, RPN is

used to set pitch bend range, transpose, and tune control from an external MIDI device.

All Sound Off forces all sound on the current channel to turn off, regardless of how the sound is being produced.

All Notes Off turns off all note data sent from an external device on the channel. The notes being sustained by the pedal continue to sound until the next pedal off signal is received.

Reset All Controllers initializes pitch bend and all other control changes.

System Exclusive controls fine tone adjustments unique to a particular sys- tem. Basically, the system exclusives are unique to a particular system; how- ever, there are “universal” system exclu- sives that are common among devices produced by individual manufacturers.

These are the system exclusive mes- sages supported by this keyboard.

GM Mode On ([F0][7E][7F][09] [01][F7]) — used to turn on the MD- 1600’s GM mode from an external MIDI device.

Notes:

GM (General MIDI) is a standard list of specifications that allows music created on one MIDI device to sound the same when played on another MIDI device. This keyboard’s GM mode incor- porates most of these specifica- tions.
