no you don't.  each joystick parameter can be assigned an amount by 
which
it is effected when the joystick is pushed in the respective direction. 
  so you can
set your LFO speed to double when you push the joystick right, but have 
your
delay speed only increase by three when you push the joystick left, for 
example.

Roonan has an excellent point here. if all you want to control is 6 or 
8 parameters
(of your choice), then the joystick would be ideal for this.
