good suggestion...

you mean like swing?  it's global...

did you know you can see them (the numeric LFO settings ) if
you go to the routing page?

BTW, I tried out using two LFO's at once last night..a simple experiment,
I added two LFO's together, both modulating FLTF, and it added them
together!  It worked extremely nicely, in fact!  It was easy to make
interference effects and also one of my long-time desires: a tiny, fast
LFO, riding on top of a deep, slow one was quickly realized.  

However, I could not get one LFO to modulate another...I set LFO 5 to mod
the filter with a slow speed (around 5), then I set LFO 6 to modulate LFOS
of track 5, but it did not speed up and slow down as expected...I played
with the depth, speed and shape settings extensively, but could not get
results..

can't help with this one (sounds like sidstation wavetable editing mode:) )
