Part XI | MIDI |
The following kinds of data can be transmitted/received.
■ NOTE data | ■ PROGRAM CHANGE |
This is the most basic kind of MIDI data which is exchanged, and is used to specify which keys are played and how hard they are played.
NOTE NUMBER: Number specifying which key is played.
NOTE ON: Specifies that a key is played.
NOTE OFF: Specifies that a key is released.
VELOCITY: Specifies how hard a key is struck.
•MIDI notes are assigned numbers from 0 to 127, with middle C (C3) as 60. Note pitches are in semitone incre- ments, with the higher numbers assigned to the higher pitches.
This is sound change data. When a different sound is selected on the transmitting instrument, the sound on the receiving instrument also changes.
■CONTROL CHANGE
These are volume, sustain, effect, etc. data used to enhance performance expression. Each func- tion is distinguished by its control number, and the function which can be changed by the control differs depending on the instrument.
■EXCLUSIVE data
This is data that is specific to this instrument, and data for the GENERAL MIDI LEVEL 2 mode set- ting.
