The design should make it pretty easy to add OSC control of all the
paramaters, but its not done yet. I think its on the TODO list. I,
personally, am not wildly enthusaistic about adding native MIDI control to
jamin, but a MIDI->OSC bridge that controls it is OK.

The compressors are just SC4's, so if that all you need you could use
something like AMS + meterbridge (or jack-rack if you dont need the
crossover) and use MIDI to control that. AMS makes it easy to bind MIDI
CC's to LADSPA controls.
