(1) :     The nibble of the status byte gives the type of message --------------(in this case a note on).

(2) :     The second nibble of the status byte tells the receiving ---------------module on which channel to carry out the command (in --------------this case it is channel 5).

(3) :     The first data byte after a note on gives the value of the ---------------note to be played (here it is Middle C, which is 60).

(4) :     The second data byte gives the velocity of the note to be -----------played (here the value is 63 out of a maximum of 127).
