I am not quite sure what you are after, but if you are interested, I have listed and used the Sysex for the basic Chorus, Reverb and Delay MIDI effects for the KETRON SD2. These Sysex codes can be copied easily to the Sysex Window in RB.
Again, if you after the Patch Map for the Ketron, I can oblige.
PM me and I will send you the relevant folders with instructions for use.
His best bet may be to search that term on the forums here, or just learn how to make one. I believe it had a GM set but he wants upper banks for it, from what I gather.

I apologise for resuscitating such an old thread. I am currently trying to find/(write?) a SysEx message to increase (lengthen) Attack and possibly Rise on the SD2. If LynB is still a member of this forum, I'd love to get in touch with him. Sincerely Ian G Wales UK

SYSEX messages are usually found in the manual for the device (your SD2). PT can send SYSEX messages if you enter them, but the manufacturer usually defines the values.
Search the SD2 PDF below for 'Attack' .. hope it helps; seems to define Attack parameters. (CTRL + F in browser worked for me to search it)
NRPN 0163H BnH 63H 01H 62H 63H 06H vv Env. attack time modify (vv=40H no modify)
It's in my post "Env. attack time modify (vv=40H no modify)" - I thought that's what you were asking for.
The message should start/end with F0/F7 respectively.
The numbers are all that matter. NRPN just means Non-Registered Parameter Number All the Hex Code (the middle row of numbers) should be in between a F0/F7
If you've not done this before there's good/bad news. Good: sending a 'wrong' SYSEX message will not do anything harmful so pretty safe to experiment, and it's very cool and powerful when it does. Bad: Without good examples for your specific device it will be difficult to have success, since every device has different requirements for the data.
I don't own your device so can't experiment but I would think with a little luck what they did supply in the manual will at least be a good clue. According to the PDF it appears in the manual as below image shows I assume the center row of Hex code between the opening and closing F0/F7 data. 'vv' is the attack value, and you'll have to get an understanding of Hex values to understand how to speed up the attack or slow it down (the vv part of the image/code) SYSEX requires some working knowledge of Hex IMO.

It's been so long I can't remember. I'll stab at it. I think If he uses a sysex message to change say the envelope attack time it'll stick at that until changed or the unit is powered off. If he's using a sysex message statically because he doesn't like the patch he can then save the new patch. Midiox is a great tool for this.
