    Syntax: <loc> <mod> <var> <type>   <params>
    <loc> - score location
    <mod> - name of the modulator 
    <var> - variable name 
    <type> - type of operation

    <params>

    <min>  - set a variable min value
    <max>  - set a variable max value
    <rate> - limit how often a variable is transmitted while it is ramping
    <val>  - type dependent value - see 'Types' below.  
    <end>  - ending value for a ramping variable
    <dur>  - determines the length of time to get to the ending value

    The value of parameters may be literal numeric values or may refer to
    variables by their name.

    Types:
    set    = set <var> to <val> which may be a literal or another variable.
    line   = ramp from its current value to <val> over <dur> seconds
    sline  = set <var> to <val> and ramp to <end> over <dur> seconds
    post   = send a 'post' msg after each transmission (can be used to change the cross-fader after each msg)
