Well, to be fair, combining LPF cutoff & volume is useless right now
(#0). If we want to keep the values the same, there's just no way to
usefully combine two knobs with completely different ranges.

There's also Option #4 now I think about it: range of automation is the
maximum range between all knobs. eg. if we have knobs 0-100 and 50-150,
the range for the automation would be 0-150, and the overflowing values
would be clipped for each model.
