Because of movements for knobs in the timeline I can't see any
limitations, without sample-accuracy, just the ticks should be good
enough. Because for the values of the data 128 steps I guess for most
sounds should be enough, but indeed because of the Hammond example,
14bit or 16bit would be better.
I don't agree because of the limitation.
