No problem. Even with the mixer enabled, the knobs will behave with aux
events as before.

The problem with the events is that there are only a few slots left.
Before I can add many more, I'd need to remove some of the existing ones.
I have an idea that would remove a fair number of events - making the 'swap'
and 'grab' events hold both the value to be swapped/grabbed, and the track
number. So instead of having separate events, you would have a single grab
event the value for which would run through 'note, trk 1' to 'note, trk 8',
then 'velo trk 1' to 'velo trk 8', and so on.
This would also mean randomisation or accumulation of these events could
pass through different value types as well as tracks.
But it would be very hard to make it backward compatible with existing
pattern data - it would maybe need a sysex translator or something.
