Decimal and Hexadecimal Table
(An "H" is appended to the end of numbers in
hexadecimal notation.)
In MIDI documentation, data values and addresses/sizes of Exclusive messages, etc. are
expressed as hexadecimal values for each 7 bits.
The following table shows how these correspond to decimal numbers.

D: decimal
H: hexadecimal
* Decimal values such as MIDI channel, bank select, and program change are listed as one
greater than the values given in the above table.
* A 7-bit byte can express data in the range of 128 steps. For data where greater precision
is required, we must use two or more bytes. For example, two hexadecimal numbers aa
bbH expressing two 7-bit bytes would indicate a value of aa x 128+bb.
* In the case of values which have a +/- sign, 00H = -64, 40H = +/-0, and 7FH = +63, so
that the decimal expression would be 64 less than the value given in the above chart. In
the case of two types, 00 00H = -8192, 40 00H = +/-0, and 7F 7FH = +8191. For example, if
aa bbH were expressed as decimal, this would be aa bbH - 40 00H = aa x 128+bb - 64 x
128.
* Data marked "Use nibbled data" is expressed in hexadecimal in 4-bit units. A value
expressed as a 2-byte nibble 0a 0bH has the value of a x 16+b.
<Example 1> What is the decimal expression of 5AH?
From the preceding table, 5AH = 90
<Example 2> 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
<Example 3> What is the decimal expression of the nibbled value 0A 03 09 0D?
From the preceding table, since 0AH = 10, 03H = 3, 09H = 9, 0DH = 13
((10 x 16+3) x 16+9) x 16+13 = 41885
<Example 4> What is the nibbled expression of the decimal value 1258?
16 ) 1258
16 ) 78 ...10
16 ) 4 ...14
0 ... 4
Since from the preceding table, 0 = 00H, 4 = 04H, 14 = 0EH, 10 = 0AH, the result is: 00 04 0E
0AH.

Examples of Actual MIDI Messages
<Example 1> 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.
<Example 2> CE 49
CnH is the Program Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. Since EH = 14 and
49H = 73, this is a Program Change message with MIDI CH = 15, program number 74 (Flute
in GS).
<Example 3> EA 00 28
EnH is the Pitch Bend Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. The 2nd byte (00H
= 0) is the LSB and the 3rd byte (28H = 40) is the MSB, but Pitch Bend Value is a signed
number in which 40 00H (= 64 x 12+80 = 8192) is 0, so this Pitch Bend Value is
28 00H - 40 00H = 40 x 12+80 - (64 x 12+80) = 5120 - 8192 = -3072
If the Pitch Bend Sensitivity is set to 2 semitones, -8192 (00 00H) will cause the pitch to
change -200 cents, so in this case -200 x (-3072) ÷ (-8192) = -75 cents of Pitch Bend is being
applied to MIDI channel 11.
<Example 4> B3 64 00 65 00 06 0C 26 00 64 7F 65 7F
BnH is the Control Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. For Control Changes,
the 2nd byte is the control number, and the 3rd byte is the value. In a case in which two or
more messages consecutive messages have the same status, MIDI has a provision called
"running status" which allows the status byte of the second and following messages to be
omitted. Thus, the above messages have the following meaning.
B3 64 00 MIDI ch.4, lower byte of RPN parameter number:
(B3) 65 00 (MIDI ch.4) upper byte of RPN parameter number:
(B3) 06 0C (MIDI ch.4) upper byte of parameter value:
(B3) 26 00 (MIDI ch.4) lower byte of parameter value:
(B3) 64 7F (MIDI ch.4) lower byte of RPN parameter number:
(B3) 65 7F (MIDI ch.4) upper byte of RPN parameter number:
In other words, the above messages specify a value of 0C 00H for RPN parameter number
00 00H on MIDI channel 4, and then set the RPN parameter number to 7F 7FH.
RPN parameter number 00 00H is Pitch Bend Sensitivity, and the MSB of the value indicates
semitone units, so a value of 0CH = 12 sets the maximum pitch bend range to +/-12
semitones (1 octave). (On GS sound generators the LSB of Pitch Bend Sensitivity is ignored,
but the LSB should be transmitted anyway (with a value of 0) so that operation will be
correct on any device.)
Once the parameter number has been specified for RPN or NRPN, 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.
It is not desirable for performance data (such as Standard MIDI File data) to contain many
events with running status as given in <Example 4>. This is because if playback is halted
during the song and then rewound or fast-forwarded, the sequencer may not be able to
transmit the correct status, and the sound generator will then misinterpret the data. Take
care to give each event its own status.
It is also necessary that the RPN or NRPN parameter number setting and the value setting
be done in the proper order. On some sequencers, events occurring in the same (or
consecutive) clock may be transmitted in an order different than the order in which they
were received. For this reason it is a good idea to slightly skew the time of each event (about
1 tick for TPQN = 96, and about 5 ticks for TPQN = 480).
