Sysex messages - is it safe?

First of all, I really don't know nothing about the sysex messages, but I did try it out and it works.
But I'm wondering is it safe to control external gear with this kind of control.
I used korgNanoKontrol and translate the CCs to specific sysex commands.
I discovered that my Ensoniq DP/4 can't handle it because it's processor is too slow.
Then I found a Eprom upgrade for it and it says that this is just an upgrade of DP/4 to work normally with sysex.

But again... Is it safe to do this kind of control?

Hi Vitja

Yes, it is completely safe to translate MIDI CCs to Sysex messages. :) I do it all the time.

Thanks
