Preface

Before reading the DigiTech Midi Implementation Manual you should have a

w

orking knowledge of the MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification which may be

obtained from the Midi Manufacturers Association1. Upon request DigiTech

w

ill provide information regarding their system exclusive commands for all

of their devices. Though we try to provide accurate documentation for our

devices to our customers we do not guarantee 100% correctness. Should you

discover some discrepancies between this manual and the actual device

implementation, please feel free to let us know about it. Please backup your

device's programs before making modifications through midi. Not only is this

a good practice, but it will save you a lot of down time should your midi

commands be incorrect. DigiTech does not assume any responsibility for lost

presets. Please note that the Midi Device Manual is a generic term used in

this document to refer to a device specific Midi Manual. (Example: GSP7 Midi

Implementation Manual)

Midi Channel

A

ll DigiTech devices can be configured to listen to midi on unique channels.

A

ll devices allow a selection of midi channels 1 through 16. Some devices

allow a channel selection of OMNI (receive midi on all channels), and some

devices allow the receipt of midi data to be disabled. Some devices allow

you to select one channel for the reception of midi data, and another

channel for the transmission of midi data. Check the Midi Device Manual for

information on how to select the midi channel for your device.

Program Change

A

ll DigiTech devices recognize a program change command. If the receive midi

channel is the same as the channel that the program change was transmitted

on, and the new program number is legal, the DigiTech device will change to

the new program number. Midi sends program changes 0 through 127. DigiTech

numbers their programs starting at 1. Thus midi program change 0 will map to

DigiTech device program 1. Some DigiTech devices allow you to remap program

changes. Remapping program changes allows the user to select any device

program based on the midi program change. The remapping of transmitted

program changes is available on devices that can generate program change

commands. Check the Midi Device Manual to determine if your device allows

the remapping of program changes.

Continuous Controllers

A

continuous controller may be associated with a device parameter. This

association is done by linking the controller to the parameter. DigiTech

uses the continuous controller to represent a percentage of the parameters

m

aximum value. Though this is the general principle, the exact formula for

each device can be found in the Midi Device Manual.

Channel Pressure

DigiTech treats channel pressure as a special case continuous controller.

DigiTech Procedures

In the following section SYSX_HEADER refers to a valid system exclusive

header. The system exclusive header starts with the System Exclusive status

byte, and includes all bytes through the DigiTech device type. EOX refers to

the End of System Exclusive status byte (F7h). All numbers in the format

definition of each procedure are given as hexadecimal values.

REQUEST CONFIGURATION (00000000b 00h)

SYSX_HEADER 00h EOX

SYSX_HEADER 00h 00h EOX (For IPS 33B only)

When a REQUEST CONFIGURATION procedure is received, the DigiTech device will

respond with a RECEIVE CONFIGURATION procedure.

When a REQUEST ONE PROGRAM procedure is received, the DigiTech device will

respond with a RECEIVE ONE PROGRAM procedure.

REQUEST ALL HARMONY DEFINITIONS (00000010b 02h)

REQUEST ALL ARPEGGIO PATTERN DEFINITIONS (00000100b 04h)

SYSX_HEADER 04h 00h EOX

When a REQUEST ALL ARPEGGIO PATTERN DEFINITIONS procedure is received, the

DigiTech device will respond with a RECEIVE ALL ARPEGGIO PATTERN DEFINITIONS

procedure.

REQUEST ONE ARPEGGIO PATTERN DEFINITION (00000101b 05h)

SYSX_HEADER 05h zz EOX

zz 0vvvvvvvb where v is bits 6 through 0 of the requested arpeggio pattern

definition - 1.

When a REQUEST ONE ARPEGGIO PATTERN DEFINITION procedure is received, the

DigiTech device will respond with a RECEIVE ONE ARPEGGIO PATTERN DEFINITION

procedure.

REQUEST RAM AREA (00000110b 06h)

SYSX_HEADER 06h bb ww xx yy zz nn EOX

bb Bank number of ram being requested. Currently the only valid bank in

DigiTech devices is 00h.

zz 0vvvvvvvb where v is bits 6 - 0 of the ram address.

nn 1 to 7Fh, the number of ram bytes to be sent.

The REQUEST RAM AREA procedure is used to have the DigiTech device send an

area of its internal ram to a host midi device. When a REQUEST RAM AREA

procedure is received, the DigiTech device will respond with a DATA RESPONSE

procedure. The Midi Device Manuals for the DigiTech devices which support

the REQUEST RAM AREA procedure contain a memory map and definition of the

ram locations which may be requested.

DATA RESPONSE (00010000b 10h)

SYSX_HEADER 10h bb ww xx yy zz nn d(1) d(1)'...d(nn) d(nn)' EOX

bb Bank number of ram being sent. Currently the only valid bank in DigiTech

devices is 00h.

d(c) 0000000vb where v is bit 7 of the cth byte being sent.

d(c)' 0vvvvvvvb where v is bits 6 through 0 of the cth byte being sent.

The DATA RESPONSE procedure is sent from a DigiTech device in response to a

REQUEST RAM AREA procedure. If a DATA RESPONSE procedure is received by a

DigiTech device, it is ignored. The Midi Device Manuals for the DigiTech

devices which send the DATA RESPONSE procedure contain a memory map and

definition of the ram locations which may be sent in response to a REQUEST

RAM AREA procedure.

RESET DEVICE (00100000b 20h)

SYSX_HEADER 20h EOX

The RESET DEVICE procedure causes the DigiTech device to reset itself as

though the power had just been turned on.

RESET HARDWARE (00100001b 21h)

SYSX_HEADER 21h EOX

The RESET HARDWARE procedure causes the DigiTech device to reload all of

it's hardware devices.

RESET HARDWARE DEVICE (00100010b 22h)

SYSX_HEADER 22h aa bb EOX

aa The major number of the device to be reset.

bb The minor number of the device to be reset.

The RESET HARDWARE DEVICE procedure causes the DigiTech device to reload a

particular hardware device. The major number is used to identify the

hardware device. The minor number is used to identify a particular element

of a hardware device. If the minor number is 0, then all elements of the

device are reset. As an example, the speaker simulator on the GFX-1

(TwinTube) has a major device number of 2. Valid minor numbers for the

speaker simulator are 0 through 6. If the minor number is 0, then all bands

of the speaker simulator are reset. If the minor number is 1, then the first

band of the speaker simulator is reset. 2 would reset the second band, etc.

2 The midi specifications for the GSP21 and the GSP21 PRO are identical.

3 The GSP 21's and the IPS 33B's midi data format IS NOT IDENTICAL (but

their MIDI IDs are). Therefore, the GSP 21's and GSP 21 PRO's midi receive

channel must be different than the IPS 33B's midi receive channel if they

are to both be on the same midi system.
