You need to find out which MIDI messages the DW-8000 recognizes. That's
what manuals and MIDI implementation documentation are for. I just had a
quick look at the DW-8000 manual and it seems that the synth has only
very limited support for editing via Continuous Controllers (CCs), but
you can edit parameters via sysex messages.

The recognized CCs are described on 63, the format for parameter change
sysex messages is on page 65. To edit a parameter you need to insert the
parameter offset (listed on page 66ff.) and the parameter value into
this message. Use the BC Manager to set up your BCR to send these sysex
messages or see the BCR manual to set them up manually.
