The beauty of those Keyabord/NI articles is the hands on 
approach using the freeware Soundforum synth. The principals 
of subtractive synthesis taught in this fine series of articels is 
applicable to ANY synth - not just the Soundforum synth or AN1x 
(Too bad the Soundforum synth doesn't function as a VSTi or 
support ReWire - that would make it much nicer to integrate with  
other soft synths  - but then again NI's already giving it away for 
free ;-)

Yes, you can use the Step Sequencer to sequence the MIDI CC 
assigned to LFO Speed or Depth for each step in your user 
sequnece. Or, you can use a FreeEG Track to record the Knob 
movement for LFO Speed or Depth in a similar manner. Both 
approaches will work - try them out and see which suits your 
needs. The 1st approach has a benefit - those MIDI CC's 
assigned to each step in your user sequence can be transmitted 
to an external MIDI Module. But the second approach is less 
tedious to program.
