read the MIDI implementation chart again mate.

VCF Resonance CC #71
VCF cut off CC #74

Then read pages 31 and 32 in the owners manual.

You have no less than THREE different ways to do what you want.

NRPN CC's, my own "quick parameter change" method, and my own controller friendly method (that's the one you are frustrated by.

The standard way that most recent controllers support is the NRPN method.

But the others work, I just retested them again and they're all good.

Enjoy!

OK.. after digging into the MIDI Implementation Chart, I sort of answered my own question...

CC#22 selects a Parameter Bank.. CC= Original Parameter Banks 1-8 (P1) and CE= Extended Parameter Banks 1-8 (P2). Each bank is a group of eight controls. Bank 1 (P1) is for DCO1 controls, Bank 2 (P1) is for DCO2 controls. Bank 3 (p1) is for DCO Tune, Noise and MK2 Effects.. and so on.

Then CC#23 thru CC#30 controls the Bank selected by CC#22 individually.. 23 is the first control, 24 the second, and so on until 30, which is the eighth control in the selected Bank.

So if I want to control the Filter Cutoff, I change CC#2 until the HAWK displays "CC 4-" and then I adjust CC#23 to change the first Parameter in that bank.. which is "P2 41 ∗∗" , the filter cutoff.

If I want to change, say the SLFO4 freq. I would change CC#22 until it displays "CE 7-" , then adjust CC#27 (the fifth control in that group/bank)up and down to change SLFO4's Freq from 0-15. This would be the same as editing "P2 75 ∗∗"

It takes alot of getting use to and a little frustrating, but it does work.
Thing is, I thought I could change each parameter according to the CC# shown next to that Parameter on the Quick Reference Chart..

So I'm back to the question, is there a way to CC each parameter individually using CC's 1-127, or is the above way the ONLY way to do continuous controlling of the parameters?

Plus it would show "CC 12 01" on the screen while I moved the software slider control (When I stop moving a slider, the "CC ∗∗ ∗∗" will change back to the previous display.), it will do this for#23 thru #30 incrementally.
