IIRC, just about any parameter can be controlled by the env.follower.

If you mean a feedback loop within your defined chain of effects, then 
yes.  It's simply a matter of splitting the signal path in two, continue 
on part as if nothing had happened, and feeding the other through more 
effects as desired, ending in a mixed you insert earlier in the chain.

Like an external control surface?  If it's a MIDI thingy sending CC 
commands, I'd guess it's a no-brainer, as the TSR has a pretty extensive 
MIDI implementation.
