The HAWK has fully independent functions. So it doesn't matter which MIDI CC or SYX message you send for patch parameter changes, they will all work even if you mix those messages in between each other.

For example, if you send a NRPN MSB then send the syx patch parameter change followed by the NRPN LSB and NRPN DAT then the syx patch change happens first followed by the NRPN change. They don't mess each other up at all. So NRPN 'null' is not needed for HAWK.

a question, about sysex vs nrpn

can the same parameter numbers be used irrespective of whether you
are using sysex or nrpn ? if the device responds to both.

or are they completely separate? or is it device-dependent ?
how about the Hawk? originally Mike was using NRPNs, and
then we got the sysex implementation recently.

re: NRPNs, i saw a report the other day where a panel using NRPNs
was having problems with sending multiple control messages (to a
esq1, it's the esq1 panel - worth checking out, to see how nrpns are
done) - he was crashing his esq1, and it seemed like the messages
were getting mixed up, with data#6 remaining associated with the
previous CC 98/99 message - which is where i remember reading
stuff about 'NRPN Null' messages, to have at the end of each NRPN
series/message. and i also see that the Novation Remote SL can deal
with NRPNs 'automatically', and wonder if it wraps its messages with
a NRPN Null at the end ( - if you see why i'm mentioning this...)
