Default Value (H) 40 08 00 Description 0 [semitones] 0 [Hz] * PITCH OFFSET FINE allows you to alter, by a specified frequency amount, the pitch at which notes will sound. This parameter differs from the conventional Fine Tuning (RPN #1) parameter in that the amount of frequency alteration (in Hertz) will be identical no matter which note is played. When a multiple number of Parts, each of which has been given a different setting for PITCH OFFSET FINE, are sounded by means of an identical note number, you can obtain a Celeste effect. 40 1x 19 40 1x 1A 40 1x 1B 40 1x 1C 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 - 7F 00 - 7F 00 - 7F 00 - 7F PART LEVEL VELOCITY SENSE DEPTH VELOCITY SENSE OFFSET PART PANPOT 0 - 127 (=CC# 7) 0 - 127 0 - 127 -64(RANDOM), -63(LEFT) - +63(RIGHT) (=CC# 10, except RANDOM) (C-1) - (G9) (C-1) - (G9) 0 - 95 0 - 95 0 - 127 (=CC# 93) 0 - 127 (=CC# 91) OFF / ON 64 40 40 40 100 64 64 0 (CENTER) 40 1x 1D 40 1x 1E 40 1x 1F 40 1x 20 40 1x 21 40 1x 22 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 00 01 00 - 7F 00 - 7F 00 - 5F 00 - 5F 00 - 7F 00 - 7F KEYBOARD RANGE LOW KEYBOARD RANGE HIGH CC1 CONTROLLER NUMBER CC2 CONTROLLER NUMBER CHORUS SEND LEVEL REVERB SEND LEVEL 00 7F 10 11 00 28 C-1 G9 16 17 0 40 40 1x 23 00 00 01 00 - 01 Rx.
