For multipads, anyone can adjust latch, gate, and a whole host of other parameters in an external sequencer. A very simple but cool way to make sweeps for example is to adjust simple synth parameters such as ASDR across a measure by sending a series of controller messages. Easy to do in any modern sequencer.

You just can't do it "on the fly" like you can in a synth. As IO said before, I don't want to do a lot of adjusting to my arps when I'm playing live, but it does bring me to one wish. I'd like to be able to assign a set of multipads to the same channel as my panel voices. That would be cool for playing live synth voices, in that I could record a series of controllers with no actual notes, for each of the pads and use them to affect my synth voice in real time playing.
