> If you want to use it as a sound module what I would do is put it in multi mode, and then send it stuff on different channels and set the patch for each channel. Make sure you have the "rechannelize" set to "off". You can find the rechannelize setting in the "MIDI" menu.

Also you want to set "MIDI mode" to "multi" and use "MIDI Enable" for
appriopriate channels - both settings in the "Master"menu. You may
want to use other parameters available there (reacting to Program
Change and Program Change mapping), but I wouldn't bother at the
beginning. Realtime controllers, mentioned by Matt, can be mapped to
"physical" MIDI CC controllers, e.g. you can set the filter cutoff and
resonance to CCs 74 & 71, which afaik is typical for Yamaha gear.

Personally I wouldn't change P2500 for P2000 - I played a bit on XK-6
and I found the ability to use the 16 buttons to access pages of
Preset menu very comfortable.
