Part I MIDI Message Overview 1 Product Configuration as a MIDI Device As a MIDI device, the instrument consists of the System Section, Sound Generator Section, and Performance Controller Section described below. Each of these sections sends and receives specific MIDI Messages in accordance with its function. • • System Section – Device settings – Function status Sound Generator Section – – • 1.
1.2.2 Parts The settings of the sound generator parts can be changed using Instrument-specific system exclusive messages. This Instrument consists of 48 parts. Of these, channel messages can be used to perform note on operations and to change settings of only the C Group (C01 through C16). The relationships between the channel message receive channel and part number are fixed, as shown in “1.2.3 Part Assignments”. 1.2.
Note 1: Can be changed by the Keyboard Channel setting. 1.3 Performance Controller Section The Performance Controller Section consists of keyboard, pedal and other real-time controllers, as well as blocks that generate auto performance and other performance information. These messages are transmitted to the sound generator in accordance with operations, while they are also being sent out as MIDI messages. The channel number of the sent message is in accordance with Instrument’s part number. 1.3.
Part II Channel Message 4 Send Channel For information about the MIDI channels of the channel messages that are sent when this Instrument is played, see “1.2.3 Part Assignments”. Note, however, that the MIDI channel of the performance information that corresponds to the keyboard main part can be changed by the Keyboard Channel setting value. 5 Receive Channel For information about the MIDI channel numbers of channel messages received by each part, see “1.2.3 Part Assignments”.

Part IV Instrument-Specific System Exclusive Messages 16 Format This section explains the format of the Instrument-specific System Exclusive Messages. See “Part V Parameter List” for information about what type of data can actually be sent. 16.1 Message Classifications Basically, the operation that corresponds to Instrument-specific system exclusive messages is parameter data transfer. The following operations can be performed from an external device using this parameter transfer message.
16.3 Field Formats 16.3.1 SX : System Exclusive Message Status Format: 11110000B (F0H) This is the System Exclusive Message status byte established by the MIDI standard. 16.3.2 MAN : Manufacturer’s ID Format: 01000100B (CASIO = 44H) Indicates this Instrument’s manufacturer ID. 16.3.3 MOD : Model ID Format: MSB 00010101B (15H) LSB 00000010B (02H) These two successive bytes (MSB, LSB) indicate the PX-130, 135, 330, 3, 3S, 730, 735, 7, 830, and AP-220, 420, 620, 6 model ID. 16.3.
16.3.6 cat : Category Format: 0cccccccB 0cccccccB = Category (7bit) The category indicates the categories of data handled by the System Exclusive Message. The ID number (ID) of the category is indicated on the left, while the communication operation (Action) is indicated on the right.

Block Bit Field Division • Case 1 When an array has three or fewer nesting levels and the number of arrays in each dimension is 128 or less, they are assigned below the three 7-bit fields. Unused regions are filled with zeros. Example: parameter [A][B][C] With a 3-dimensional array parameter that consists of A=8 (3 bits), B=5 (3 bits) and C=10 (4 bits), the block bit fields are allocated as: Block = 0000aaa 000bbb ccccccc (Binary).
16.3.13 data : Parameter Data Format: index0 0dddddddB (0eeeeeeeB) (0fffffffB) (0gggggggB) (0hhhhhhhB) index1 0dddddddB (0eeeeeeeB) (0fffffffB) (0gggggggB) (0hhhhhhhB) index2 0dddddddB (0eeeeeeeB) (0fffffffB) (0gggggggB) (0hhhhhhhB) : : indexN 0dddddddB (0eeeeeeeB) (0fffffffB) (0gggggggB) (0hhhhhhhB) Parameter data indicates the parameter value. The data array size is len + 1. For a one data item structure, the length depends on the data bit width, as shown below.
17 Parameter Transfer There are two parameter operations: Individual Parameter Transfer and Individual Parameter Request. A single session is concluded only when this Instrument returns an IPS (Individual Parameter Send) in response to an IPR (Individual Parameter Request) from an external device, or when an external device or this Instrument spontaneously sends an IPS. If this Instrument received an IPS, the value of the applicable parameter is changed.
Part V Parameter List How to Read the Tables Number Base Notation “Size” indicates the parameter value bit width as a decimal value. The bit field position of “Block” as a decimal value. Values used in the explanations under “Description” are all decimal values, unless specified otherwise. Values other than those described above are all hexadecimal. R/W field The R/W field indicates whether an IPR (Individual Parameter Request) read operation or IPS (Individual Parameter Send) write operation is enabled.
20 Patch Parameters The main function of patch parameters is to configure the settings of the sound source of a device. 20.1 Master Tune Parameters These parameters configure the Master Tuning Settings.

Part VIII 27.2 MIDI Implementation Notation When a MIDI implementation data value is expressed in binary, the letter “B” (for “binary”) is affixed at the end of the value. The table below shows the binary equivalents for the decimal values 0 through 127, which are often used for settings. 27 27.1 Value Notation Hexadecimal Notation MIDI implementation sometimes requires that data be expressed in hexadecimal format. Hexadecimal values are indicated by the letter “H” after the value.
