Also, Don't forget that several controllers sending SYSEX at the same 
time will choke up a midi pipe very quick.  CC's use much less 
bandwidth. I asked for CC's too long ago, and Dave too said maybe.

Thing is, you only get a resolution of 128 steps, so something like the 
Filter which has greater resolution (164 I think,)  you may hear 
stepping.  But that's what the LFO's, sequencer, envelopes are for  :)

I still want CC's though....  we have a few
