    Ok, tested the following on my X5D  - this should also work on the X5, X5DR and 05/RW:

    Combi Mode:

    
    F0 42 30 36 4E 00 00 F7



    Program Mode:

    
    F0 42 30 36 4E 00 02 F7



    Multi Mode:

    
    F0 42 30 36 4E 00 04 F7




    As far as I can tell, changing the fourth byte (36)  to 35  should work on the X2, X3 and X3R, e.g:

    Combi Mode:

    
    F0 42 30 35 4E 00 00 F7



    Program Mode:

    
    F0 42 30 35 4E 00 02 F7



    ( no Multi mode on the X2/X3/X3R ... not that you really need it... IMO combi mode is far easier to work with on all X series devices )
     

    Error in the program mode message: 02 and 00 are transposed. It should read F0 42 30 35 4E 02 00 F7

     

    To get Sequencer mode, replace 02 with 04.

    F0 42 30 35 4E 04 00 F7

    Sequencer mode is what you pick if you want to use the synth as a multitimbral sound module.

     

    So far this seems to work. I created the 3 different sysex messages and can send them to change modes.

    Now I suppose I need to create test projects to check how it works with setting the synth to the correct mode automatically when I open one up

    Cakewalk is a complex DAW, and you should start with the documentation and tutorials, to help out with the learning curve. The YouTube videos linked above from Creative Sauce would be a good place to start.

    Absolutely.

    RTFM people! Probably 90% of the brain-dead simple basic functions like this can be easily solved by not being too lazy to crack open a book once in awhile.
