Rainer, Thank you for the helpful response. I now realize that I need to be in "parameter" mode in order to see the changes on the synth. The other question I had doesn't concern me that much. It was just something that I was curious about. Again, thanks for your hard work on the template. All of us JX-8P owners are benefiting from it! :-) Aaron --- In bc2000@yahoogroups.com, Rainer Keizer <rainer.keizer@...> wrote: > > Hi Aaron! > > Thanks for the compliments on the template! > > To answer your questions: > 1) When you press "PARAMETER" on your 8P, it WILL jump to the parameter and > show the value it currently has, updating live when you turn a control. > 2) That is correct, the thing is that I actually didn't know what hex value > triggered which param state, so I just let the control send the full range. > There is no 1 to 1 correllation between the value sent and the actual > parameter value on the 8P.
