 I haven't experienced any problems with Evolver controlled by the 
Knobby using Midi CCs. It looks like you've covered everything. Are 
you 
still having this problem?
 I programmed Evolver sysex presets for the Knobby, I also did the 
sysex for the Peavey PC1600x which are on the DSI site. As far as the 
Knobby goes, you may need to send it back to Tony at Encore for a 
hardware upgrade in order to use sysex values from -128 to +255. I 
don't know if it effects the CCs, I kinda doubt it. You could e-mail 
Tony. The upgrade is free(you pay shipping both ways) and 
his turnaround is quick. Hope this helps.
