ya, here's some For nice stabbing riffs with lots of filter variation, turn off Velocity > Amplitude.  Instead use velocity to modulate the filter, I personally use a piano-roll view window on a PC to then edit the 'velocity' info manually to get the precise rhythm or whatnot.  

I'm also a big fan of clock modulation, they work great on LFO's, you can get a lot of really neat variations with different LFO vs. Clock modulation speed.  Especially when it's routed to the filter. Another filter trick I like is using the 'hemi-quaver' waveform on an LFO the modulate the filters rhythm on notes that are held down.

Assigning a knob to drop the pitch and take the volume to zero is pretty cool too.  It sounds nice during a solo to sort of have the melody 'fall' at a given spot. If you haven't already, try running yer sheit through an AIR FX.  It sounds great.   Route all 16 knobs to the filter of 16 channels, then use them to mix a track and have tons' of fun.  (haven't actually tried this one out.)
route a controller to an effects send that has delay, throw it over select instruments or percussion parts during a track, sort of sounds like a 'dj' trick.  Especially if you use it over a housebeat to create a double up efffect.  boom boom boom boom.  vs. boom-boom boom-boom boom-boom boom -boom.  quarters to eights, or whatever you prefer, it souds nice.  Turn up the rez on the hats, and play with the filter over all the percussion while the other hand controlls the delay on the kick = you can almost more or less do wicked techno style fills in real time on the fly.  plus, it sounds really cool to filter beatz, it never gets old.Peace yo.
