This document can be especially useful to the happy owners of a Yamaha DB-50XG daughterboard
who are not able or willing to buy XG editing software (for whatever reasons; $...), but nevertheless
like to have at least some SysEx control over this card. More see below:”Why this file?”

Introduction
In General
Included: XG SysEx-messages (written in full - if possible) and quite a few necessary tables (in
hexadecimal numbers only - to avoid tedious and confusing conversions). They are discussed in the
preferred order (the sequence of sending them); it is explained briefly how to use and edit them. Not
included: TG300B SysEx, XG Native Bulk Dump and QS300 Native Bulk Dump SysEx.

More Specific
• First: a little bit about SYSEX-messages for the DB50XG in general (just basics).
• The GM and XG RESET or "System On" messages; the first messages in any XG mid-file. They
should precede other SysEx as well as controllers, notes and other Midi events (exceptions are:
timing, tempo, and text events). Actually, the XG reset is just one (the most important one) of the
group of...
• SYSTEM messages. These can be send next.
• EFFECTS SysEx-messages are next. The way they are related to the voices (parts) is discussed
briefly. If you know a bit about the routing of the effects and the elusive variation connection
parameter you can understand how to use the effect-messages:
• Reverb
• Chorus
• Variation
• MULTIPART SysEx-messages enable Voice selection and editing (including overall DrumKit
editing).
• DRUMSETUP SysEx-messages enable DrumVoice editing (individual notes of the kits).
• To enable easy byte edit of System-, Effects-, MultiPart- and DrumSetup-SysEx quite a few lists
and tables are included: a Hexadecimal Chart (more than one, actually), Effects Type lists and
Effects Parameter tables, XG Normal Voice List, and XG Drum Voice list. There is even a
complete list of Controllers for Adjustable Controller selection (but no explanations about AC...)
• All charts, tables etc. contain the hexadecimal numbers you need...
• Also included: a quite comprehensive list of XG SysEx-messages (defaults) with no text
between the messages. Just copy the contents of that window into Windows NotePad (or
something similar) and select those messages you want afterwards. They are listed in the
preferred order: Reset, System, Effects, and MultiPart. The few SysEx messages you should
always send are marked.
• Some of the tips and examples you will find in this file (basic stuff, mostly):
• Ordering SysEx-messages properly (what first and what next?).
• Combining effects (Reverb, Chorus, Variation).
• Routing several Parts to the Same Channel (in order to create totally new complex sounds
and / or assign Voices to specific areas of you (master-)keyboard: the key range for a part:
Keyboard Split.

A Few Notes
The file and the writer
• The writer is not an "SysEx-expert", just an ignorant but inquisitive amateur. Please, keep that in
mind. This file was originally written for personal use only. It was only after I discovered that there
were more just as ignorant and poor as I that I decided to rewrite it a bit and make it available to
others. If you want to know more about SysEx and/or the XG-format I recommend a visit to the
Yamaha sites (like: http://www.yamaha.co.uk) or Michael Banz' site (http://home.wtal.de/mbanz)
• Whenever I indicate my uncertainty or complete ignorance or in case you are not sure yourself I
advise you to check your Owner's Manual.
• My English is far from perfect; please excuse my mistakes and awkward expressions.
• Feedback (esp. when it concerns grave errors or additional information) is appreciated!
• Disclaimer: I will not be held responsible for any problem as a result of a mistake in this file
or your mistakes based on the information provided in this file. I consider the user to be
responsible for his or her own actions.

• You may do whatever you like with this file, as long as you don't change it without
consulting me first, and provided you do not profit from it financially (by selling it in
whatever way: separately, or in combination with another product).

Why this file?

Some Basic Help-, that's all
In this file you will find the most basic and important XG System Exclusive messages controlling the
various functions of the DB-50XG (written in full - as much as possible) as well as some tips and
examples how to use and edit them. The SysEx-messages can all (well, almost all) be inferred from
the Owner's Manual, but that has not proven to be easy for those mucisians who were so fortunate to
purchase this wonderful daughterboard but lack the necessary degree in formal logic or computer-
science. Yamaha's The Alternative DB50 Guide, although a great guide in other respects, does not
offer much basic help either. I hope this file may just do that: provide some basic help.

It may make things a bit easier but do not expect miracles! The writer of this file is an amateur with
limited knowledge. You cannot do without the Owner's Manual which is the basis for this file anyway;
the information given here is not complete. (This is free, remember...). This file contains only the most
important XG SysEx-messages.

NB. I am only a bit familiar with the DB50XG, but it has come to my attention that owner's of other
Yahama XG stuff (like the SW60XG) could also benefit to some extend from the information
presented here. Nevertheless, let me stress that it was originally written for the DB50XG...

 The Beggar’s DB-50XG SysEx Guide

What is SysEx?
SysEx is a way of addressing the basic levels of the DB50XG
A SysEx-message is a particular series of bytes with a specific order (to address the DB properly,
right?). The bytes are in Hexadecimal Numbers (simply put: these numbers have ciphers as well as
letters). The data can be entered using a SysEx- or Event List editor in your sequencer.

The basic structure of SysEx-messages for the DB50XG:

F0 43 10 4C (xx xx) F7
What does it mean?

First Byte F0 Start of SysEx-message

Second Byte 43 Yamaha ID code
Third Byte 10 Device number (fixed to "All" devices)
Fourth Byte 4C XG Model ID
Next Bytes (xx xx) Command Specific bytes
Last Byte F7 End of SysEx-message

All XG-sysex messages discussed here have the first four bytes (F0 43 10 4C) and the last byte (F7)
in common. All that remains to figure out is how to fill in the Command Specific bytes of each
individual SysEx-message. These bytes usually consist of 3 Parameter Address bytes and 1 or 2
Parameter Data bytes. To fill in those bytes is what this file is all about.

Note that these SysEx-messages should not be send at the same midi time in a sequencer (and mid-
file). They need some time to do their job. For this reason most people use SysEx only at the
beginning of a mid (and sometimes also at the end). They can be send in the middle of a mid-file, but
you may notice unwanted hiccups or click-noises in the music (if you do it: pick the right time).

NEXT The very first SysEx-messages in an XG type mid must be the GM and XG System On or
RESET.

Reset
In a XG-mid-file you need a (non-XG) General Midi message (GM) - must be the very first SysEx-
message in a mid-file - and an XG message (second message). These two are the only SysEx
messages that really must be sent in order to ensure XG; all other SysExes are optional. It is
advisable to leave some time between sending the GM and the XG messages (200 msec) as well as
between the XG SysEx and the following system exclusive parameter changes (50 msec). All
messages after the third don't need such gaps of time. Just send them one by one and make sure
they don't interfere with other MIDI Events (e.g., notes, controllers, etc.)

The Reset or System On messages

GM F0 7E 7F 09 01 F7
GS F0 41 10 42 12 40 00 7F 00 41 F7
XG F0 43 10 4C 00 00 7E 00 F7

(You don't have to use the Roland GS message.)

NEXT The XG System On or Reset is actually just one - but the most important one - of the System
messages.

 The Beggar’s DB-50XG SysEx Guide

System
The System messages speak for themselves: they are "system global" (just don't ask me about
Master Tuning: I don't have that hexadecimal table here).

Short explanation of table below

• In the table you will find, from left to right: Name, SysEx-default, Value Range
• XG System messages can be recognized by their common Base Address: F0 43 10 4C 00 00 .. ..
F7.
• To change values: change the bold green hexadecimal numbers in the SysEx using the value
range indicated. The range is either given directly (in case of a simple on/off switch) or indirectly,
i.e., by reference to a hexadecimal table (all numbers are hexadecimal). For value ranges consult
the “Hexadecimal Chart 00 to 7F” unless otherwise indicated (go to other tables: “Transpose”,
“Parts”, “Octaves” or voicelists when they are bold green in the Value Range column)
• "<" = decrement; ">" = increment.

Name SysEx-default Value Range

Master Tune F0 43 10 4C 00 00 00 00 04 00 00 F7 ??
Master Volume F0 43 10 4C 00 00 04 7F F7 00<>7F
Transpose F0 43 10 4C 00 00 06 40 F7 28<40>58 cf.Transpose
Drum Setup Reset F0 43 10 4C 00 00 7D 00 F7 00=DrumSetup1; 01=DrumSetup2
XG System On F0 43 10 4C 00 00 7E 00 F7
All Parameter Reset F0 43 10 4C 00 00 7F 00 F7

Some Remarks
• Master Volume can be used for fade in and fade out, because it addresses all Parts. You can do
this by creating a sequence of messages. Like this (fade out):
F0 43 10 4C 00 00 04 7F F7
F0 43 10 4C 00 00 04 7E F7
F0 43 10 4C 00 00 04 7D F7
F0 43 10 4C 00 00 04 7C F7
F0 43 10 4C 00 00 04 7B F7 ...etc...
...Agreed, that is a lot of work, but if you create some sort of template you only have to write it once.
• Transpose could almost be called Master Transpose: it has effect on every part except for the
default Drumpart.
• The DrumSetup Reset (re-)initializes the selected setup (can also be used in the middle of a mid -
if timed well: in an intentional pauze in the music).

NEXT The next SysEx-messages to be send are the Effects.

 The Beggar’s DB-50XG SysEx Guide

Effects
You can use three effects at the same time: 1 Reverb Type, 1 Chorus Type and 1 Variation Type.
They can be combined in any way you want. Because almost all reverb and chorus effects are also
listed as Variation Types it is possible to 2 reverbs or 2 chorus effects...
XG Effect messages can be recognized by their common Base Address: F0 43 10 4C 02 01 .. .. F7.
The messages can be edited using the tables further below

Signal Route
The order of SysEx messages is: effect first, parts (voices) next. The actual signal route, however, is
different. (NB. I am only discussing the route when System mode is selected with the Variation
Connection parameter [see further below])

A (primitive) graphic overview:

| ---> Reverb ≡≡≡≡> return ≡≡≡≡> pan 

| ↑ ⇑ 
|---> Chorus ====> return ====> pan 
| | ↑  Output
|---> Variation -----> return -------> pan 
| 
Parts == --------------> Dry Level -----------> pan 

It all starts with the 16 Parts - (that's where you select and edit voices). Each part can send its signal
(mono!) to Reverb, Chorus and Variation and determine the level of Effect Send. Also the Dry Level
(direct output signal) can be edited here. I am referring to the following messages in the MultiPart
table:
Dry Level
Chorus Send
Reverb Send
Variation Send
(The function of the last 3 SysEx-es is identical to that of the controllers 91, 93, 94).
Also the Pan of the Dry sound can be adjusted here (controller 10 = panning of total output)
• The part signal send to the effects is modified by the effect Type and its parameters (i.e., p1-p16).
Each of the three effects has its own parameters (see links to Reverb, Chorus, and Variation
below).
• Parallel Effect output. Next step can be: adjusting the level and panning of effect-signal that is
returned to output by all three effects. I am referring to the following messages in the Effect tables:
In Reverb table: Reverb Return and Reverb Pan
In Chorus table: Chorus Return and Chorus Pan
In Variation table: Variation Return and Variation Pan
That gives you quite a few possibilities, but there is more...
• Serial Effect routing. One Effect can also be send to another Effect before being returned to
output. I am talking about the following options available in the Effect tables:
In Variation table: Send Variation to Reverb
In Variation table: Send Variation to Chorus
In Chorus table: Send Chorus to Reverb
Almost limitless possibilities... (esp. in combination with your choice of Effect Types)

Variation Connection
The Variation effect can operate in either System or Insertion mode (cf. one of the Variation
tables further below to understand to what messages this discussion refers to). This has several
effects on the operation of the Effects Unit as a whole.

• In System mode Variation works for every Part. If System is selected the setting of the previous 4
Variation parameters has effect, i.e., the Variation Return, Variation Pan, Send Variation to
Reverb, and Send Variation to Chorus (no effect in Insertion mode).
• If set to System the values of the Variation Part parameter are irrelevant. (not active).
• If set to System parameter 10: Dry/Wet of ALL three effects (Variation as well as Reverb and
Chorus) and the Variation Part is not operative. In System-mode the Dry/Wet level of the parts
must be controlled by the Multipart Dry Level parameter in combination with the Variation Send
parameter.

• In Insertion mode each part is routed through the next parameter: Variation Part. The Variation
Part parameter addresses only the one part selected here for the Variation effect. Only in Insertion
mode has parameter 10: Dry/Wet any effect.

Note that by default the Variation Effect is "switched off"; Variation Connection is set to Insertion and
Variation Part = Off! If you want to make things easy for yourself: select System instead of the default
Insertion and don't bother about the Variation Part parameter (well, that's what I do). You can't use
more than one Variation Type anyway and you can always control the amount of Variation for each
part, so what's the point in selecting only one Part (except for sophisticated purposes for which most
of us don't have the money)?

So, I recommend sending - directly after the Variation Type (so you don't forget it):
F0 43 10 4C 02 01 5A 01 F7.
If you chose Insertion (F0 43 10 4C 02 01 5A 00 F7) make sure you chose a particular part as well:
F0 43 10 4C 02 01 5B .. F7.

Reverb Effect
About the Reverb tables below

Default Reverb Type: Hall1

• XG Reverb Effect SysEx messages range from: F0 43 10 4C 02 01 00 .. .. F7 to: F0 43 10 4C 02

01 15 .. .. F7.
• You can use only one Reverb Effect (but you can select a second reverb type as Variation effect).
The SysEx messages of all available Reverb Types are in the tables below.
• There is a problem of which you should be aware: You will not find the default values nor the value
range of the effect parameters in the Owner's Manual. The values in the Reverb tables are the
result of some "educated guesswork".
• The columns in the Reverb tables from left to right: First: parameter name. Second: SysEx with
the default parameter values of one Effects type. Next (sometimes): columns with the default
parameter values of other Reverb types (having the same type specific Reverb parameters in
common). Finally: the Value Range of the parameters.
• First select a Type with the first message in the table (the default Reverb type is Hall1). If you
select type Hall2 (F0 43 10 4C 02 01 00 01 01 F7) the parameter defaults will be the values listed
in the column under Hll2 and 01 01. Next: edit the bold green hexadecimal numbers in the SysEx
messages listed below using the value range indicated. For value ranges consult the
“Hexadecimal Chart 00 to 7F” unless otherwise indicated (go to other tables: “Transpose”, “Parts”,
“Octaves” or voicelists when they are bold green in the Value Range column)
• Apart from the types listed below there is also the option "no Reverb effect" (F0 43 10 4C 02 01 00
00 00 F7)
• I find it helpful to distinguish between type specific and common Reverb parameters. B.t.w., the
defaults of Return and Pan parameters are always 40.

Variation Effect
About the Variation tables below

Default Variation Type: Delay LCR.

NB! By default the Variation Effect is "switched off".

• XG Variation Effect SysEx messages range from: F0 43 10 4C 02 01 40 .. .. F7 to: F0 43 10 4C 02
01 75 .. .. F7.
• You can use only one Variation Effect. The SysEx messages of all available Types can be found
below.
• Two problems: 1) You will not find the default values of the type specific parameters in the
Owner's Manual (i.e., par. 1-16). 2) MSB and LSB value range of parameters 1-16 is not clearly
indicated in the Owner's Manual ... Based on trail and error my guess is that MSB (first data byte
of par. 1-10) must be 00 for all Variation Types except the Delay and Echo types. So it is the LSB
(second data byte) you must look for in most cases. (Heavy stuff? Don't worry, you'll see what to
do.)
• NB: The default values in the Variation tables are the result of some "educated guesswork".
• Apart from the types listed below thereare also these two options: "no Variation effect" (F0 43 10
4C 02 01 40 00 00 F7) and "THRU (=bypass effect)" (F0 43 10 4C 02 01 40 40 00 F7)

Brief explanation of Variation Tables below

• The columns in the variation tables from left to right: First: parameter name. Second: SysEx with
the default parameter values of one variation type. Next (sometimes): columns with the default
parameter values of other variation types (having the same type specific Variation parameters in
common). Finally: the Value Range of the parameters.
• First select a Type with the first message in the table (default Variation type Delay LCR: 05 00).
Next: edit the bold green hexadecimal numbers in the messages listed below using the value
range indicated. For value ranges consult the “Hexadecimal Chart 00 to 7F” unless otherwise
indicated (other tables: “Transpose”, “Parts”, “Octaves” or the voicelists).
• I find it helpful to distinguish between type specific and common Variation parameters. Note that
the defaults of the type specific parameters are the result of guesswork...
• Don't forget to edit the Variation Connection parameter (or you won't hear any Variation effect at
all).

The asterisks in the tables below:

* MSB value of the parameters (the 00 before the value) higher than 00 seems identical to
maximum LSB value.
** Only if Variation Connection = Insertion.
*** MSB value range when needed identical to LSB value range

NEXT After (1) GM & XG System On, (2) the System-messages, and (3) the Effects, come (4) the
Voices themselves: with the MultiPart and DrumSetup SysEx-messages you select and edit the
Voices of the DB50XG.

24
 The Beggar’s DB-50XG SysEx Guide

MultiPart
The MultiPart SysEx messages
In MultiPart you can select and edit the voices of the DB50XG. (An example of voice selection can be
found below the table.)

Why bother with SysEx to select Voices if you can do it with Controllers?
Well, knowledge of MultiPart Bank- and Program selection is the key to editing Voices and making
new complex sounds by routing Parts to one Channel as well as assigning the voices of the Parts to
specific areas to play on your Midi (master-) keyboard: the key range for a part (see below). That's
why.

Explanation of table below

• In the table you will find, from left to right: Name, SysEx-default for MultiPart 1, Value Range
• XG MultiPart messages can be recognized by their Base Address: F0 43 10 4C 08 xx .. .. F7. The
xx is the hexadecimal number of one particular Part. In the table below are all the default values
for MultiPart 1 (the 00 in: F0 43 10 4C 08 00 .. .. F7). Further below it is explained how to address
MP 2-16.
• To change values: change the bold green hexadecimal numbers in the SysEx messages listed
below using the value range indicated. The range is either given directly (in case of a simple on/off
switch) or indirectly, i.e., by reference to a hyperlink to the appropriate table. All numbers are
hexadecimal. Note that some of the parameters in the table have no effect on the Drum Part
(default: MP 10 = in hexadecimals: 09).
• NB The defaults are those given by Yamaha in the DB50XG Owner's Manual; they are not
necessarily the actual defaults of the DB50XG (so I noticed)!
• "<" = decrement; ">" = increment.
• The parameters in the table that have no effect on the Drum Part are indicated by noDrum.

 The Beggar’s DB-50XG SysEx Guide

Examples
MultiPart parameters of Parts 2-16.
The table above adresses Part 1 with the 00 byte in each line. In order to address other Parts you
must change this number in all the lines of the table. Like this:

from: F0 43 10 4C 08 00 .. .. .. (=Part 1)
to: F0 43 10 4C 08 01 .. .. .. (=Part 2)
or: F0 43 10 4C 08 02 .. .. .. (=Part 3) (cf. Parts)

Assigning Channels to Parts

To assign a Channel to a certain Part you must edit the Rcv Channel SysEx (i.e., F0 43 10 4C 08 00
04 .. F7). Like this:

from: F0 43 10 4C 08 00 04 00 F7 (=Part 1 to Channel 1)

to: F0 43 10 4C 08 01 04 01 F7 (=Part 2 to Channel 2)
or: F0 43 10 4C 08 05 04 02 F7 (=Part 6 to Channel 3...!) (etc.)

In this way more than 1 Part can be connected with the Same Channel (more: see below). This is, of
course, only interesting if you also change the Bank Select and the Program Number lines. This
allows you to create complex new sounds by combining Voices, and also to assign different Voices to
specific areas of you keyboard (no matter how primitive this keyboard in itself is [if it has MIDI OUT it
works]!)

Voice Selection & Editing

SELECTION
Suppose you want the voice Ritual for part 1. Follow these steps:
• Select Part 2: F0 43 10 4C 08 00 .. .. (i.e., in all following messages):
• Adjust Bank Select MSB, Bank Select LSB, Program Number. Like this:
F0 43 10 4C 08 00 01 00 F7 (=MSB for Ritual)
F0 43 10 4C 08 00 02 43 F7 (=LSB for Ritual)
F0 43 10 4C 08 00 03 65 F7 (=Prog for Ritual)
• Send it to a particular Channel with the Rcv Channel parameter:
F0 43 10 4C 08 00 04 00 F7 (=Part1 to Channel1)

EDITING
Basically, you edit Parts. This means - in our example - that to edit the voice Ritual now you must be
sure always to address part 1. Every MultiPart line intended to edit this voice now must, therefore,
start with this address:
F0 43 10 4C 08 00

Creating complex Sounds & KeyBoard Split

You can create totally new sounds and/or split the KeyBoard Split by routing different Voices assigned
to different Parts to the same Channel and defining specific areas of you (master-) keyboard for each
Part / Voice. A simple example will show you how to do it. If you know how this works you can do
much more elaborate things.

AN EXAMPLE
Say, you want to play a PickBass with your left hand and the DX Phase piano voice with your right
hand. For whatever reason you want to do this by sending Part 2 and Part 3 to Channel 2 (any Part
and Channel may be used).

The steps (the order is interchangable):

First: define Part 2 and Part 3 and send them to Channel 2

28
 The Beggar’s DB-50XG SysEx Guide

Part 2: PickBass
• Use the MultiPart SysEx-messages to define the parameters: Bank MSB, Bank LSB and Program
Number:
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 01 00 F7 (Part 2, Bank MSB, default)
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 02 00 F7 (Bank LSB, LSB for PickBass)
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 03 22 F7 (Program Number, PickBass)
• Send this Part / Voice to Channel 2:
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 04 01 F7 (Rcv Channel, 2)

Part 3: DX Phase
• Use the MultiPart SysEx-messages to define the parameters: Bank MSB, Bank LSB and Program
Number:
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 01 00 F7 (Part 3, Bank MSB, default)
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 02 28 F7 (Bank LSB, LSB for DX Phase)
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 03 05 F7 (Program Number, DX Phase)
• Send this Part/Voice also to Channel 2:
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 04 01 F7

When you send the SysEx-messages at this point bass and piano will be heard simultaniously when
you play the keyboard: a new sound is born (Aaaaah). With the MultiPart parameters you can now
really dive into the unknown depths of your DB-50XG... But that's up to you - right now we just want to
split the keyboard:

Second: define the Split by editing the default parameters for the Key Range for each Part / Voice:
Note Limit Low and Note Limit High. You want to define 4 octaves (poor beggar...)
• Pick Bass, Part 2, to the lower two octaves: (compare MultiPart & Octaves)
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 0F 24 F7 (NtLimitLow ...)
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 10 3B F7 (NtLimitHigh ...)
• DX Phase, Part 3, to the higher two octaves:
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 0F 3C F7
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 10 53 F7

Third: adjust it to your own taste. E.g.:

• Transpose the Bass -1octave (NoteShift)
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 08 34 F7 (PickBass, NoteShift, value)
• Emphazise the piano by adjusting the Volume parameters of both Parts:
F0 43 10 4C 08 01 0B 49 F7 (PickBass, Volume, value)
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 0B 7A F7 (DXPhase, Volume, value)
• Give the Piano a bit more Reverb:
F0 43 10 4C 08 02 13 60 F7 (DXPhase, Reverb, value)
• To get the balance better you might also want to adjust the sound a bit with the Filter parameters
(Cutoff: F0 43 10 4C 08 02 18 .. .. and Resonance: F0 43 10 4C 08 02 19 .. .. ). Whatever you like;
your imagination is the limit (well, you can of course exceed maximum polyphony, i.e., go beyond
32 Elements played at the same time).
• You can really complicate matters by sending Part 4, Warm Strings (LSB 28, ProgN 31) to
Channel 2 as well: to the upper 3 octaves using a long attack time (say: F0 43 10 4C 08 03 1A 6B
F7). ...

NEXT What all the MultiPart parameters can do is for YOU to find out... First you might want to
know more about the DrumSetup parameters.

DrumSetup
The DrumSetup SysEx-messages
Individual Drum Voices can be changed by edited the individual Notes using the DrumSetup SysEx-
messages below. In order to do so you must know the hexadecimal numbers corresponding to these
individual voices. They can be found in the XG Drum Voice List.

Explanation of table below

• In the table you will find, from left to right: Name, SysEx-default for DrumSetup 1, Value Range.
• XG DrumSetup messages can be recognized by their Base Address: F0 43 10 4C 3x rr .. .. F7.
The 3x is the hexadecimal number of the chosen DrumSetup. DrumSetup 1 is addressed by F0 43
10 4C 30 .. .. F7 (DrumSetup 2: F0 43 10 4C 31 .. .. F7). The letters rr refer to the Note numbers
that can be found in the XG Drum Voice List.
• To change values: change the bold green hexadecimal numbers or questionmarks (??) in the
SysEx messages listed below using the value range indicated. The range is either given directly (in
case of a simple on/off switch) or indirectly, i.e., by reference to a hyperlink to the appropriate
table. All numbers are hexadecimal.
• The questionmarks (??) indicate that the default value depends on the Note Number.
• "<" = decrement; ">" = increment.

EXAMPLE

Lets drastically modify the StandardKit Vibraslap voice (Note number: 3A / an "A#" note on the
keyboard)
• Listen to "the default VibraSlap"
• Modify Pitch, Pan, the Filter settings, Attack and Decay:
F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 00 25 F7 (Vibraslap, Pitch Course, value)
F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 04 40 F7 (Vibraslap, Pan, value)
F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 0B 20 F7 (Vibraslap, Filter Cutoff Frequency, value)
F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 0C 20 F7 (Vibraslap, Filter Resonance, value)
F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 0D 00 F7 (Vibraslap, EG Attack Rate, value)
F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 0E 10 F7 (Vibraslap, EG Decay1 Rate, value)
(or: F0 43 10 4C 30 3A 0F 10 F7 (Vibraslap, EG Decay2 Rate [=slower decay], value)
• Check the messages if you like and send them - one after another.
• Listen again ...

2) Hexadecimals 00 to 7F
Amost all the hexadecimals you need: from 00 to 7F (i.e. decimal: 0-127 or 1-128). The default
values of parameters are often 00, 40, 64 or 7F (=decimal: 0, 64, 100, 127). You can figure out
yourself the effect of incrementing or decrementing them. Mind the value range indicated for the
parameter you change!

Of course you can use all values in between 28<>58:

28 34 40 4C 58
29 35 41 4D
2A 36 42 4E
2B 37 43 4F

30 3C 48 54
31 3D 49 55
32 3E 4A 56
33 3F 4B 57

4) Octaves
In the value range from 00 to 7F the octaves (from C to B) are:

Note C - B
Octave 1 00 - 0B
Octave 2 0C - 17
Octave 3 18 - 23
Octave 4 24 - 2F
Octave 5 30 - 3B
Octave 6 3C - 47
Octave 7 48 - 53
Octave 8 54 - 5F
Octave 9 60 - 6B
Octave 10 6C - 7F

On a Keyboard with an even number of octaves (2/4/6) the central C note is 3C (=the hexadecimal
number in the table above).

7) XG Drum Voice List

The two tables below serve two main purposes
• to select and edit entire DrumKits
• to select and edit the individual DrumVoices of these Kits

Drum Kits are selected for MultiParts by editing the MP lines for Bank Select MSB and Program
Number. The Bank Select MSB can be set to 7F (=default) or 7E (SFX Drum1&2); there are 11
possible Program Numbers (see table below). The Bank Select LSB must be set to default, i.e. 00 (so
don't change LSB if you select Drum Voices...). The MultiPart SysEx-message lines to which I am
referring here are:

Bank MSB for Drum Voices:

F0 43 10 4C 08 09 01 7F F7 (=default: all DrumKits except SFXDrum1&2 =7E)

Bank LSB for Drum Voices:

F0 43 10 4C 08 09 02 00 F7 (=default, you don’t have to change that )

Program Number:
F0 43 10 4C 08 09 03 00 F7 (=default, edit with table below)

(The Drum Kits are, by default, assigned to MultiPart 10: F0 43 10 4C 08 09 ..)

Individual Drum Voices of each Kit can be modified by selecting and editing the individual Notes (rr)
in the DrumSetup Table. In order to do so you must know the numbers corresponding to these
individual voices. These hexadecimal Note Numbers can be found in the tables below (=N#; first
column).
For your convenience the actual notes are mentioned next (=N, 2nd column).
In the following columns you will find the individual Drum Voices; each of these columns has a Bank
MSB and Program Number which corresponds to one of the DrumKits lined up horizontally (first two
rows of the tables).
The empty space in a column indicates: this Voice in this Kit is identical to the Voice mentioned in the
Standard-Kit column.
The shaded cells indicate: No Sound.

If you want to select an Adjustable Controller (range: 00<>5F): you need the hexadecimal numbers in
the first column of the table below. Note that all hexadecimals between 00 and 5F may be used, but
only those controllers are listed which are actually used by XG (and GM).
For obvious (non-sysex) purposes the decimal numbers and range are included as well :-)

XG SysEx List
A quite comprehensive list of SysEx-messages. The most important messages are pointed out with
an asterisk (*). Those with the "xx" are not used by default (but can, e.g. when you select another
Reverb Type). The "??" in combination with "nn" means that values depend on selection of a
particular note (drumvoice). Use of this table? Quick reference.
