Recommended Practice (RP-022)
Redefinition of RPN 01/02

With the approval of CA-025 ("Master Fine/Coarse Tuning") there arises a naming conflict with existing Registered Parameter Numbers (RPNs)  in the MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification called Master Tuning. The original message is by definition Channel-based, which supports renaming those messages "Channel Fine Tuning" and "Channel Coarse Tuning" under the heading of Channel Tuning.

Details:

1) Change current and future versions of the MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification to reflect the new name for RPN 01 to "Channel Fine Tuning" and RPN 02 to "Channel Coarse Tuning" under the renamed heading of "Channel Tuning". (See page 18 of the MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification v 4.2)

2) Also change Table IIIa, Registered Parameter Numbers, to 01-"Channel Fine Tuning" and 02-"Channel Coarse Tuning".
