Switch Controller Destinations
These were originally reserved for binary (On-Off) switched functions, transmitted by
momentary or locking action pedals and buttons. However, like destinations 0Ð63
above, a continuous 0Ð127 value is included in the message anyway so many of these
are used for continuous control functions. For On-Off switch functions, values of 0Ð63
are regarded as Off and 64Ð127 as On.
33–63 LSB for 1-31 Originally defined for vernier (fine) control of
destination numbers 32 less than these. The Stage
Piano will send to these like any other destination
and so they should be considered Undefined.
MIDI # Controller Name Description
64 Sustain Pedal Also known as Damper or Hold 1. When on,
sounding notes are either held indefinitely or
decay more slowly. Default destination of Right
Switch Pedal (or single pedal).
65 Portamento Switch Turns the portamento function on and off. See
destination 5.
66 Sostenuto Pedal Sustains notes that are sounding when the
control switched from off to on but does not
affect later notes. Default destination of Left
Switch Pedal.
67 Soft Pedal Lowers the volume or softens the timbre by a
preset amount.
68 Legato Switch Puts receiver into “legato” mode where only one
note can sound at a time and overlapping notes
result in a change of pitch rather than a newly
attacked note.
69 Hold Pedal A second hold control that may hold the
sounding notes differently from 64.
Although the following are in “Switch Controller space”, they are typically used as continuous
controls.
70 Sound Variation Could control any aspect of sounding notes.
71 Timbre Control Controls richness or intensity of timbre.
72 Release Time Controls rate of sound decay.
73 Attack Time Controls rate of sound attack.
74 Brightness Controls high frequency portion of timbre.
75–79 Sound Control 6-10 Function varies freely with receiving device.
80–83 General Control 5-8 Function varies freely with receiving device.
