You could alter the sensitivity of each and alter the sensitivity of some parameters to each. Anything that the Breath Controller could do, you could do with the Modulation Controller, all it does is give you a second source of control.

If this is also valid for my TG77 I'll still have to poke
arround with sysex then.

This is really ridicoulous: An fm synth with ~ 1000 parameters,
and only modulation and velocity to alter some , or better, very few
of these. Well, most people I know only use the preset piano anyway....
