The Xk3's drawbars DO send MIDI info. They do it in an unusual way:

- All upper drawbars are merged as CC#80
- All lower drawbars are merged as CC#81
- All pedal drawbars are merged as CC#82

The way this works is --

CC#80 = 0 --> 16' = 0
CC#80 = 1 --> 16' = 1
CC#80 = 2 --> 16' = 2
...
CC#80 = 8 --> 16' = 8

CC#80 = 9 --> 5-1/3' = 0
CC#80 =10 --> 5-1/3' = 1
CC#80 =11 --> 5-1/3' = 2
...
CC#80 = 17 --> 5-1/3' = 8

etc.

This requires a unique translation to work with other devices (NI B4, V5,
CX-3, Electro).

Thanks,
I'll check out some things hooking the Xk3 and the b4II. Unfortunately I
have to keep the low down for now :)
