Assumed you have several sound presets for the same synth and you like
to sync attack times without playing notes and comparing those sounds,
it's nice to at least have a tooltip showing the value. IOW it can help
to at least get coarse results very quickly, fine tuning is another
thing. When mixing with Qtractor I like that I can use the keyboard to
type coarse fader values, before I start doing the fine tuning using the
mouse and keyboard.
