I've just got an SX8 but I am having problems with MIDI.
I'm having trouble selecting organ patches through MIDI - I can select the organ type (through MIDI) but not an actual patch. I also don't understand how to use Channel 14.
Also, Why do the patches seem higgledy-piggledy meaning that a Cakewalk instrument definition is hard (for me!) to implement. Thanks in anticipation!

Out of curiosity of a unknown brand I looked at ToneList document.
- everything but organ is selected through normal bank select and program select
- but those only select organ type in this case
- different drawbar registrations(presets( is CC 102 103 104 for upper, lower or pedal, with different values
- midi implementation chart says CC 81-90 and 92, 94, 95 are other parameters like overdrive and stuff

Did you look at these?
- one would assume Presets for organ would include other settings as well, like percussion, vibrato etc?
- but drawbar registrations are listed?

Really odd structure of that. Not easy since sequencers usually have bank + pc only.

Just a quick glance....
