Lock a control when switching presets

[Pepin]

It's mostly self-explanatory:
- Right-click a device control and select "Lock"
- Now that control won't change when switching presets

Having this available across all rack devices would be super useful. Examples:
- Browsing synth presets with built-in effects disabled or customized
- Less messing with wet/dry when trying mismatched Send/Insert FX patches
- More creative stuff like turning synth plucks into pads by keeping the envelopes locked

The feature already exists in some other synths like Hive:

For sure! A lock on the wet/dry mix for effects when cycling thru presets would be my main request.

So there is a work around that involves using a combinator and CV.

It's pretty useful when say, browsing Europa patches but keeping the effects section turned off.

You can technically use the Combinator CV inputs, but you have to use a non-constant CV signal. Otherwise, the setting won't refresh when changing patches.
This means the workaround only works for switches, not for knobs and faders, because the changing signal would affect the settings of those controls.

So it's not a general purpose solution, and it's rather tedious anyway IMO.
Unless you had a different workaround in mind?
