Endless knobs in Generic Links: reduce inc/dec amount?

I've got the endless rotary encoders on my MPD26 working now (for anyone who's curious: set the knobs to INC/DEC, set each knob to a different midi channel, use midi-ox to filter out NRPN MSB and NRPN LSB messages and output that through a virtual midi port like LoopBe1) but the increments/decrements are too large.

For example, if I make a gain adjustment on a fruity compressor, it jumps in 2.5db increments. This makes the knobs useless for precise adjustments.

I understand that generic permanent links do not support mapping formulas (although I don't understand why) so is there a way for me to re-map the MIDI data or tweak some system files to have the knobs make finer adjustments?

FYI, here's what the MPD sends unfiltered:

Increment (turn knob right):

B0 63 7F 1 (NRPN MSB)
B0 62 7F 1 (NRPN LSB)
B0 60 01 1 (Data Increment)
B0 63 7F 1 (NRPN MSB)
B0 62 7F 1 (NRPN LSB)

Decrement (turn knob left):

B0 63 7F 1 (NRPN MSB)
B0 62 7F 1 (NRPN LSB)
B0 61 01 1 (Data Decrement)
B0 63 7F 1 (NRPN MSB)
B0 62 7F 1 (NRPN LSB)


And here is what I'm sending to FL after filtering through Midi Ox:

Increment (turn knob right):

B0 60 01 1 (Data Increment)

Decrement (turn knob left):

B0 61 01 1 (Data Decrement)


Hopefully someone can help with this.

Thanks!

Blake
