Maybe named something not so obvious? I would think that the command you are wanting to send would be on the top of the list for cc control. A very obvious and useful command that most keyboardists would constantly use. _________________________ Musician's Theory of Relativity: E=Fb

Too big, but it would make a great controller for drawbar organ modules/plugins. The manual does say the rotary speed can't be controlled by MIDI.

abacus Senior Member Registered: 07/21/05 Posts: 5386 Loc: English Riviera, UK	Originally Posted By jimlaing Hi - I have written to Yamaha via "Support" and wrote it up as a feature request. I also described this idea/request in detail to a (I think) US-based Tech Support person at Yamaha. Does anyone know of anything else I should do? A certain email address to write to? Or a thread on this or some other Forum, that Yamaha is known to look at? I didn't try sending the SysEx commands, since my controller can't do that anyway, I suspect sending them would work fine, for a controller that can send them. I could try my old Peavey PC-1600x I guess ... but my real goal is to have "Organ Rotary Slow/Fast" added to the MIDI External Controller list of >100 functions they support. Thanks all! Jim Yamaha UK/Europe as Yamaha US has no interest in arrangers so unlikely to pass anything on. (Most content and features for Yamaha arrangers are done in the UK & Germany) Modifications, Work arounds and multi keyboard setups are quite common in the UK & Germany (For some reason only the US players seem to moan about the weight and setup) so any forum there will probably help as well.

jimlaing Member Registered: 09/24/02 Posts: 581 Loc: Raleigh, NC	Hi - to "Salsaman", I looked carefully through the 100+ items on the list for MIDI External Controller; I didn't see any that looked at all like Rotary SP or Organ Rotary slow/fast. So, it appears that it's not on the list. This is on the list for "local" controls (assignable buttons / foot switches). And the MIDI SysEx command do exist and work, but my MIDI controller can't send those. Thanks for all the ideas/suggestions/comments/discussions!
