Re: Hardware programmer for DX7/TX7

Well, yes and no.  In theory, one can program the NRPN portion and then 
use the Data Slider (CC6 and CC38) at will, until a new NRPN is chosen.  
However, for safety's sake, the 9-byte (OR 12-byte) sequence is usually 
sent for each data value.  And I've often seen an NRPN of 0:0 sent at 
the end, as kind of an 'ack' or release message.

The other problem is, some synths send CC99 (MSB) first, followed by 
CC98 (LSB); others reverse the two commands.  And I've seen cases where 
a particular synth can only accept one of these formats, but not the other.
