There are people around that know far more than I about Rosegarden but I
do not think it supports any sort of automation, as such, today. I did
do some testing a long time ago with RG where I recorded pitchbend, key
pressure, etc. and made sure that much worked, but I do nto remember
seeing anything in RG that would allow you to draw automation for any
parameter.

Put in a feature request I guess.
