Correct.

Different notes for different channels. It might be possible to map them
to different channels in the future. Letting a channel trigger different
notes would be cool for sequencing other gear. Perhaps we'll be able to
get it in later.

NOTE_ON and relevant CTRL-change for the parameters.

It doesn't work that way. The MD does not record straight MIDI events
events like an standard sequencer.
