I hope there is away get away with this. Maybe something to recall 
saved kit settings (Function+parameter push maybe?). I would love to 
be able to set things very grazy in the middle of the pattern and 
then go back to normal settings again with a flip of a swicth.

Can anyone upload any sound samples of tweaking the ctr-machines? 
pretty please... (...with sugar on top).
