right, nobody's really talked about it. I'm not really sure why.  I've
only recently run into it, since I've been writing songs which take
more pattern memory.  So after a while I have to dump the
memory and I know that if I want to reload it for a show or
something, I'll have to be careful what I load where.

it's not a big problem, really; and I know I'll probably only deal
with it when I want to put together stuff for shows. I was only
mentioning it because it's a minor niggle and someone who
is worried about always loading songs immediately may be
concerned by it.

oh and to answer the original question: yes, you can use
parameter locks with the MIDI machines. which means that
you can program a melody for your external device to play as
well as lock CC#'s for it. and as mentioned, the MIDI machines'
LFO's can be used to modulate external parameters with the
only limitation being that note values can't be modulated.
