The insert channei symbol ( t X ) in this case will automatically assign the MIDI chanrei for the respective

her programmed should oe one less than the channel required (i.e. 0 = Channel 1. 1 = Chanrel 2, F =
Channel Id and so on).
The value ( n The insert va ue ms Non), n this examp e the note number, wi I be determined by the posi
lien of the PEDAI. Si IDES or W) I PH according :o wh cb control is being used,
t will be seen that the fi r st half of the code (Note On) is made up of three bytes, whereas the second (Note
Oft) has omy Two. I Ns is due to the L 'act that it is rot necessary to repeat the first oyte in the Note Off part
of the code {Status), when this is identical to tha:of the rirst byte ir he Ncre On section (9Tt )
