Now that is clear about NRPN, controllers and their default values it would be nice to know which system exclusive messages are understood by BASSMIDI and so by VMS.
I see that there are a lot of sysex messages out there and each device manufacturer has defined his own. I see also that a few Roland sysex msgs are also well understood by VMS.
Can you please tell me which ones are supported by BASSMIDI/VMS?
Thank you.

Tnank you, Falcosoft!

I assume that setting to GM or GS or XG always reset controllers the same way.

One difference between GM/GS and XG/GM2 resets is that Bank MSB (CC# 0) on channel 10/drum channel is set to 127/120 respectively by XG/GM2 resets. In case of both GM and GS Bank MSB is set to 0 on all channels.

Overall I see that BASSMIDI behaviour conforms to Roland MIDI specs. Is there a particular reason for CC#6 (Data entry MSB) is reset to 2?

This corresponds the default Pitch Bend Range/ RPN(0,0) value of 2 semitones that is set by all known resets in Bassmidi.

I would like to know which controllers/NRPN/RPN, etc are reset when midi stream/file send a sysex message to reset synth system to GM/GS/XG; and then for each controller which reset value is assigned to.

I would also like to kwow which controllers are reset by "Reset All Controllers" controller change MIDI message (cc 121).

I think that depends on BASSMIDI library implementation.

This info would be very useful when creating/editing a MIDI file.

Thnak you.

For all the supported reset SysEx messages (GM/GM2/GS/XG) it is true that all controllers and all RPN/NRPN values are reset to default (also programs/instruments are reset to default). According to my results these are the default values for controllers 0-127:

    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 100 {Volume}, 64 {Balance}, 0, 64 {Pan}, 127 {Expression}, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 64, 64, 64, 64, 64, 64, 64, 64, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 40 {Reverb}, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0

Contrary Reset All Controllers (CC# 121) message resets only a subset of controllers. This is for GM/GS but Bassmidi in GM/GS mode uses the same values for these controllers. If you need more detailed answers you should as Ian at www.un4seen.com

I do not think Claudio here can give you more detailed answers.
