MIDI Implementation
Notation
26 Value Notation
26.1 Hexadecimal Notation
MIDI implementation sometimes requires that data be
expressed in hexadecimal format. Hexadecimal values are
indicated by the letter "H" after the value. The hexadecimal
equivalents of decimal values 10 through 15 are expressed
as the letters A through F. The table below shows the
hexadecimal equivalents for the decimal values 0 through
127, which are often used for settings.
26.2 Binary 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.
