Didn't the last OS update add dedicated CCs?

I'd recommend to get a cheap Behringer BCR 2000 instead of meesing around 
with SysEx translations etc.

Hello,

I sold off a lot of gear to buy myself a PEK with the intention that it 
would be my master keyboard.  One thing I would like it to do is control 
other synths/softsynths/etc.  I know the knobs send sysex only but has 
anyone found a way to translate those to CC#s?  If so, would anyone be 
willing to share their setup?

Thanks for the input!
Matt

With the latest OS the Evolvers receive several CCs, but the panels still 
don't send them.
My personal opinion is that it's not adequate to invest the work of 
implementing a "controller box" into the PEK.

It would require a lot of programming and still wouldn't be perfect in the 
end. People would immediately complain that knobs send fix controller 
numbers, that the implemented CC don't fit to their hard-/software, that no 
templates can be saved etc.

There are dedicated controller boxes for this task. If Dave Smith would 
build or implement one into his synths, it could impossibly be as cheap as 
for example the Behringer mass products.
