Have any of you worked out the sysex to use for the 9 drawbars on the RD700nx. I have tried but can't seem to get it to work. Thanks!

Ok, I got it to work. Here are the drawbar sysex messages that I am using with my PCR-800:

F0 41 10 00 00 50 12 SS 10 07 00 02 DT S1 F7
F0 41 10 00 00 50 12 SS 10 07 00 03 DT S1 F7
F0 41 10 00 00 50 12 SS 10 07 00 04 DT S1 F7
F0 41 10 00 00 50 12 SS 10 07 00 05 DT S1 F7
F0 41 10 00 00 50 12 SS 10 07 00 06 DT S1 F7

I just want to add this explanation to my last post as I received a question on it. The numbers/characters from SS and S1 are explained as follows:

SS - start point for the PCR800 to automatically calculate the checksum which is set out in the PCR800 manual
10 is Roland
07 is volume
00 is layer 1. On the nx I can use 01, 02 or 03 to choose layers 2, 3 or 4
02 - 0A chooses the specific harmonic drawbar
DT - data selected by the PCR800
S1 - endpoint for calculation of checksum

On the PCR 800 you also need to select the following data type:
DT0: 7bits
Min 8 and Max 0 - this sets it to reverse slider/drawbar so that down is 8 and up is 0.

I hope this added explanation helps some people.

I received some requests a while back for help to get this to work on the RD800 but I didn't have access to that board but I have one now for a short while so I thought to try to get the sysex worked out. I managed to get it to work on Layer 1 but couldn't get it to work on any other layers. Anyhow, here are the sysex commands to manipulate the drawbars on Layer 1 from my PCR800.
