When I get time, I'll post the Xiosynth controller patch. My work-in-progress "single-oscillator + sub osc, 24dB/oct lowpass 6dB/oct highpass filter and choruser" synth that's *NOT IN ANY WAY AT ALL* based on a real hardware synth started life when I wrote a piece of code to map sysex messages from my Juno to OSC commands.
