Good point, now that you mention it.  My best guess there is that there may 
be some modulation options that are accessible by an LFO that aren't 
directly routable via MIDI CC's.  Didn't think of that one right away.

Yep, there's another one.  That could provide some of the equivalent 
function of using a "DC Offset" block on a modular synth.

Heh!  Not always, but we try...  ;)
