While using the "Sound Edit" function, make sure to always keep in mind the following limitations:
- Legacy instruments not supported (Wurli V2, SEM V2, Mini V3)
- Some parameters are not conditional and might not work (Clavinet, DX7, Farfisa, Matrix12, MiniFreak, Solina, Synclavier, Vox v2)
- Some parameters might not work due to the instruments modular design (Modular V3, Korg MS20, Synthi)
- Some parameters must be assigned in order to work (ex: sliders, X/Y, etc...)
- Parameters in Sound Edit do not modify Analog Lab
- Sound Edit is not yet supported on Playlists
- Modifying parameters in sound edit changes the range of Macros if the parameter is also controlled by the macro
