[A6] Ribbon controller to play notes

[Mike Schultz]

I think you are out of luck here.  You are limited to using the  
ribbon/footswitches etc as trigger sources for trig destinations in  
the synth.  The closest I can think of is to modulate the OSC pitch  
with the ribbon, and use then use the ribbon value as a trigger for  
the VCA envelope.  But you would have to play a voice and then sit on  
the sus pedal to make that go.
