Osc settings are fairly well supported in that respect, since you 
can quickly flick between 1, 2 and 3 and match/compare your 
settings, but you're right - it *would* be nice to copy LFO 
settings. 

However, the feature that I'd kill for, I mean really KILL for, the 
feature that would make my Sidstation INVALUABLE instead of merely 
very excellent, is one that's been suggested many times before. 
INDIVIDUAL OSCILLATOR CONTROL VIA MIDI! 

I wouldn't say that the Sidstation was misrepresented when first 
sold, but just that this seems such an obvious thing and I'm amazed 
that it never found its way into the OS. Now, if I want to compose a 
straight-up sid tune and play it through my Sidstation, I have to 
write my instruments in Goattracker, track it, compile it, load it 
into Asid, say a quick prayer and then hope for the best. With 
individual Osc control, I could play the same SID tune, more 
reliably, MIDI synced, one channel per oscillator, mono/1-osc 
patches... I know how much a pain updating the OS would be...but 
this would exponentially multiply the effective usefulness of the 
world's most beautiful and unique synthesiser and bring tears of joy 
to the eyes of all those people who don't give their 'Station the 
love and attention it deserves ;_;

I'd have babies and then sell them into slavery, or put an eyeball 
on the black market or take a vow of chastity if I could only get 
separate Osc control over MIDI for my Sidstation. Maybe not the 
chastity, but definitely the babies and eyeball. Is there anyone to 
hear my prayer?
