* Rx.NRPN is set to OFF by power-on reset or by receiving "GM1 System On" or "GM2
System On," and NRPN message will be ignored. NRPN message will be received when
Rx.NRPN = ON, or by receiving "GS RESET."
* The value set by NRPN will not be reset even if Program Change or Reset All Controllers
is received.
**NRPN**
The NRPN (Non Registered Parameter Number) message allows an extended range of
control changes to be used. On the SC-8850, NRPN messages can be used to modify sound
parameters, etc.
To use these messages, you must first use NRPN messages (Controller number 98 and 99,
their order does not matter) to specify the parameter to be controlled, and then use Data
Entry messages (Controller number 6) to specify the value of the specified parameter. Once
an NRPN parameter has been specified, all Data Entry messages received on that channel
will modify the value of that parameter. To prevent accidents, it is recommended that you
set RPN Null (RPN Number = 7FH 7FH) when you have finished setting the value of the
desired parameter. Refer to Section 5. Supplementary material Examples of actual MIDI
messages <Example 4> (page 244). On the SC-8850, Data entry LSB (Controller number
38) of NRPN is ignored, so it is no problem to send Data entry MSB (Controller number 6)
only (without Data entry LSB).
On the SC-8850, NRPN can be used to modify the following parameters.

* Parameters marked "relative change" will change relatively to the preset value(40H).
Even among different GS devices, "relative change" parameters may sometimes differ in
the way the sound changes or in the range of change.
* Parameters marked "absolute change" will be set to the absolute value of the parameter,
regardless of the preset value.
* It is not possible to simultaneously use both Chorus Send Level and Delay Send Level on
a single Drum Instrument.
* Data entry LSB (llH) is ignored.

**RPN**
The RPN (Registered Parameter Number) messages are expanded control changes, and
each function of an RPN is described by the MIDI Standard.
To use these messages, you must first use RPN (Controller number 100 and 110, their order
does not matter) to specify the parameter to be controlled, and then use Data Entry
messages (Controller number 6, 38) to specify the value of the specified parameter. Once an
RPN parameter has been specified, all Data Entry messages received on that channel will
modify the value of that parameter. To prevent accidents, it is recommended that you set
RPN Null (RPN Number = 7FH 7FH) when you have finished setting the value of the
desired parameter. Refer to Section 5. Examples of actual MIDI messages <Example 4>
(page 244).
On the SC-8850, RPN can be used to modify the following parameters.
