=======================

how about a list of CC numbers that have a "yes" in the chart... what the 
MIDI spec says about that CC, and whether or not a knob is assigned to it 
by default...

  1 Mod Wheel MSB	{knob M}
  7 Chan Volume MSB
  10 Pan MSB
  11 Expression MSB
  25 {Undefined}		(Filt Attck) {knob C}
  26 {Undefined}		(Filt Decy) {knob D}
  64 Sustain Pedal
  71 Timbre/Har Inten	{knob B}
  75 Sound Cntrlr 6	(Decay)	{knob F}
  77 Sound Cntrlr 8	(Vel->Filt) {knob J}
  78 Sound Cntrlr 9	(Vel->amp) {knob I}
  79 Sound Cntrlr 10	(hard-wired to "Mix Output parameter")
  80 Gen Purp Cntrlr 5	(hard-wired to "Arp Status parameter")
  82 Gen Pur Ctrlr 7	(Arp Vel)	{knob O}
  83 Gen Pur Ctrlr 8	(Arp Gate)	{knob P}
  85 {Undefined}		(Sustain)	{knob G}

also see 0, 120-127, CCs that aren't really "continuous".

so... if there's a "yes" in the chart and the CC is not assigned by 
default to a knob, then i'm thinking it's hard-wired (7, 10, 11, 64, 79, 
80). but if it *is* assigned by default to a knob (1, 25, 26, 71, 75, 77, 
78, 82, 83, 85), is it hard-wired? or just a default setting that can be 
arbitrarily changed?
