You need a separate device, I believe.
Kenton Control Freak - a little hard to find.
Search 'MIDI control surfaces'
Novation Zero, Behringer, AKAI.
Call the store (Sam Ash, Sweetwater, etc. and grill them on it).

I've got a Control Freak studio from a guy in New Zealand.
I'll go homeless before I unload it.
It has presets for many synths including Korg EX8000 (DW8000)
This thing rocks!
I control the VCF Cutoff freq. Resonance, VCF attack and any other parameter I want.
I run the arpeggiator and use the sliders.
Major Pink Floyd effect.

You can also control the DW8000 parameters by hooking up a master controller:
Yamaha KX76, Roland A-series. They have 4 sliders that can send sysex parameter change messages 'real time', but the control surface is prob. better solution.

You're able to do real-time control of the dw8000 with midi ox?  I've been struggling to find some way to tweak multiple parameters in real time by sending those pesky sysex messages.  Nothing so far has seemed to work, very probably through a fault of my own.

I agree, I use midi-ox and it works great!
