Hi John,
 That's an interesting thought. I hadn't thought about recording a patch's 
individual components to separate tracks. In addition to changes in the mix, it 
would also leave things open for additional or different effects processing at 
a later date.

 Come to think of it, you could even send one track of this recorded patch 
back into the modular for even more patch tweaking. Hmmm...new term alert: 
"Repatching"! ;)

 Thanks for the tip,
 Andrew
