Well, it might be, but on the other hand making that possible would allow
the truely open ended flexibility possible with a hardware modular. If the
project is limited to midi control, the resolution of control signals is
forced into being very low. Being able to use use either a Jack/CV input or
a midi CC to control a paramater would be pretty cool. Plug ins wouldn't
have to be able to do everything, they could be used to do only one or two
things really well, and one could freely mix oscillators, filters, and other
processors to make complex patches.
