This is a great tip!  It's very useful to apply one modulation source to 
several related destinations simultaneously.  Obvious when using the ribbon 
to sweep both filters simultaneously, or having the mod wheel control 
Croutes to both VCO's (both part of "The Default Program"); but not quite 
as obvious when using a controller to lower ENV3 (output VCA) level while 
simultaneously increasing filter resonance (to tame the "squeal"), or 
lowering the modulation amount along with the modulation rate (useful for 
controlling "seasickness" when using VCO modulation for chorus/leslie 
sounds).  Does anyone else have favorite single source -> multi-destination 
modulations?
