This is a help page listing which MIDI messages can be used for common things across General MIDI, Roland GS and Yamaha XG.

Note that there doesn't seem to be a formal GS standard that is publicly available, so the Roland SC-55mkII manual is the best reference for GS.

Ctrl # Function General MIDI Roland GS
Yamaha XG Notes
1 Modulation [1] Vibrato by default

10 Pan [1]
