[RWP] Automation

I have a bcf2000, and really like it.
Once you set it to mackie universal control, you're set.
This is done by pressing the top left button in the bank of 16 buttons, 
while turning the power on.
Turn the bcf off again, and then back on, and you're in universal control 
mode.
However, we have no means of editing automation at this point, so although 
volume/pan/etc. can be automated, its almost impossible to make any changes 
after the fact.
