in addition to the following messages are also sent.
Channel Voice Messages
* The following channel voice messages are transmitted on the channel specified
as the [SETUP]-[MIDI]-[MIDI CH] Tx/Rx Channel.
* Not transmitted when [SETUP]-[MIDI]-[MIDI CH] Tx/Rx Switch is set to
“OFF.”
* When [SETUP]-[MIDI]-[GLOBAL] Local Control is set to anything other than
ON(PERC), messages are transmitted over the channel assigned to the drum
part when the pad is played. When set to ON(PERC), messages are transmitted
over the channel assigned to the percussion part.
* When [INST]-[CONTROL]-[MIDI] Tx Channel is set to anything other than
GLOBAL, messages are transmitted over the channels assigned to each pad in
the drum kit (when Local Control is set to ON(DRUM)).
* Pressing the Preview switch transmits the same message sent when the
corresponding pad is struck.
Note Off
Status
2nd byte 3rd byte
8nH kkH vvH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
kk = note number: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
vv = Note off velocity: 40H (64) fixed
* In the channel assigned to the durm part (or percussion part), after a pad is
struck or the hi-hat control pedal is in the foot closed (splash) position, Note Off
is transmitted after the interval set in Gate Time([INST]-[CONTROL]-[MIDI] or
[INST]-[CONTROL]-[HH MIDI]).
* When a brush sweep is played on the SNARE pad with the [KIT]-[FUNC]-
[BRUSH] Brush Switch set to ON, the corresponding note number set by means
of [INST]-[CONTROL]-[BR MIDI] Brush Note No. is transmitted over the
channel assigned to the drum part.
* When cross sticks are played on the SNARE pad with the [KIT]-[XSTICK] XStick
Switch set to ON, the corresponding note number set by means of [INST]-
[CONTROL]-[BR MIDI] XStick Note No. is transmitted after the gate time over
the channel assigned to the drum part.
* Transmitted only when the device is in play for pattern in which Note Off is
recorded.
Note On
Status
2nd byte 3rd byte
9nH kkH vvH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
kk = note number: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
vv = note on velocity: 01H - 7FH (1 - 127)
* In the channel assigned to the durm part (or percussion part), after a pad is
struck or the hi-hat control pedal is in the foot closed (splash) position, the note
number set for the drum kit is transmitted.
* When a brush sweep is played on the SNARE pad with the [KIT]-[FUNC]-
[BRUSH] Brush Switch set to ON, the corresponding note number set by means
of [INST]-[CONTROL]-[BR MIDI] Brush Note No. is transmitted over the
channel assigned to the drum part.
* When cross sticks are played on the SNARE pad with the [KIT]-[XSTICK] XStick
Switch set to ON, the note number set by means of [INST]-[CONTROL]-[BR
MIDI] XStick Note No. is transmitted over the channel assigned to the drum
part.
* In the channel assigned to the durm part, the note number transmitted when the
hi-hat pad is srtuck (open, closed) switches with the value set with [SETUP]-
[MIDI]-[CTRL] HH Note# Border setting (the Pedal CC Control value) in
accordance with the degree to which the hi-hat pedal is pressed.
* Transmitted only when the device is in play for pattern in which Note On is
recorded.
Polyphonic Key Pressure
Status 2nd byte 3rd byte
AnH kkH vvH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
kk = note number: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
vv = value: 00H, 7FH (0, 127)
* On the channel assigned to the drum part, 7FH will be transmitted when the rim
of the pad is pressed and 00H will be transmitted when the rim is released, for
the note number specified for the head and rim. (When using a choking-
compatible pad and [TRIGGER]-[BASIC] Trig Type is set to the corresponding
pad.)
* Transmitted only when the device is in play for pattern in which Polyphonic
Key Pressure is recorded.
Control Change
Bank Select (Controller number 0, 32)
Status 2nd byte 3rd byte
BnH 00H mmH
BnH 20H llH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
mm = Bank number MSB: 00H - 7FH (bank.1 - bank.128)
ll = Bank number LSB: processed as 00H
* Not transmitted when [SETUP]-[MIDI]-[PROG] TX Switch is set to “OFF”.
* When a drum kit is selected, the corresponding bank select (00H 00H) is
transmitted.
* When a percussion set is selected, the corresponding bank select (00H 00H) is
transmitted.
* When instruments are selected for the backing part, bank selects for the
respective instruments are sent. Refer to “Backing Instrument List” (p. 94) in the

Status 2nd byte 3rd byte
BnH 01H vvH
n = MIDI channel number: 0H - FH (ch.1 - ch.16)
vv = Control value: 00H - 7FH (0 - 127)
Pedal position: open to closed
Head strike position: center to perimeter
Rim strike position: deep to shallow
* This is transmitted only on the channel which is assigned to the drum part.
* When [SETUP]-[MIDI]-[CTRL] Pedal CC is set to MODULATION, this is
