Once the parameter number has been specified for RPN, 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. Example of an Exclusive message and calculating a Checksum Roland Exclusive messages (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 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. We will assume that in the exclusive message we are transmitting, the address is aa bb and the data or size is ccH. remainder 128 - remainder = checksum Set "Reverb Type" to "Type 4" According to the Parameter Address Map, the Address of Reverb Type is 01 03H, and the Value corresponding to Type 4 is 30H. So, the message should be : F0 41 00 1A 12 01 03 30 -- -- -- -- -- ------(1) (2) (3) (4) (5) address data (1) Exclusive Status (4) Model ID (BN-60) * ??-checksum F7 -(6) (3) Device ID (UNIT#-1) (6) End of Exclusive For example, two hexadecimal numbers aa bbH expressing two 7-bit bytes would indicate a value of aa x 128 + bb. (2) ID (Roland) (5) Command ID (DT1) <Example> What is the decimal expression of 5AH ? From the preceding table, 5AH = 90 UNIT NUMBER is always the same as the current MIDI Tx/Rx channel. In this example, the MIDI Tx/Rx channel is 1. Next we calculate the checksum. 01H + 03H + 30H = 1 + 3 + 48 = 52 (sum) 52 (sum) ÷ 128 = 0 (quotient) . . . 52 (remainder) checksum = 128 - 52 (remainder) = 76 = 4CH Therefore, the message to send is : F0 41 00 1A 12 01 03 30 4C F7 <Example> 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 Examples of actual MIDI messages <Example> 92 3E 5F 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. About tuning BN-60 is tuned by sending RPN #1 (Master Fine Tuning) to the appropriate MIDI Rx channel. RPN #1 allows tuning to be specified in steps of approximately 0. 012 cents (to be precise, 100/8192 cent). Frequently used tuning values are given in the following table for your reference. +----------------+----------------+----------------------------+ |Hz at A4| cent | RPN #1 | +----------------+----------------+----------------------------+ | 445. 0 | +19. 56 | 4C 43 (+1603)| | 444. 0 | +15. 67 | 4A 03 (+1283)| | 443. 0 | +11. 76 | 47 44 (+ 964)| | 442. 0 | + 7. 85 | 45 03 (+ 643)| | 441. 0 | + 3. 93 | 42 42 (+ 322)| | 440. 0 | 0 | 40 00 ( 0)| | 439. 0 | -- 3. 94 | 3D 3D (-- 323)| | 438. 0 | -- 7. 89 | 3A 7A (-- 646)| +----------------+----------------+----------------------------+ Set the tuning of BN-60 to A4 = 442. 0 Hz Send RPN#1 to the MIDI Tx/Rx channel.
