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

1) can you just change the rate of speed increase? ie; make it more of a 
log curve, so that the new 15 == the old 15, but maybe the new 12 == the 
old 11.

2) can an extra parameter be added for the range? low/high/ohmygod?

3) can the LFO speed (among other parameters) be made to respond to 6-7 
bits of incoming controller data, even if it only saves 4 bits to memory? 
i think this option would be the best (for most parameters that seem 
limited to 4 bit), because it would allow a very fluid (non zipper) 
control via midi, but still conserve memory usage.
