you don't want to use parameter locks like that within one pattern. so
there's too options:
1) if you want to change virus patches on the fly, just change the program
change knob by hand (but you'll probably want the patches to be adjacent
so that you don't play all patches as you scroll between the new and old
ones)

2) create two patterns, one with the new patch locked (via the program
change parameter) and one with the old patch locked; then just change
between them when you want to change patches; they can have the same MD
kit and internal pattern if you don't want to change what the MD's doing

good luck!
