The Wobble bass sound is omnipresent in Dubstep. Here's a good example of the kind of effect I'd like to be able to recreate on the Axe-FX (the bass kicks in at 0:54)

On a software synth like Reason, the quick way to program a wobble bass effect is to
1) pick any bass tone capable of sustain.
2) Apply an LFO. Saw waves often work best
3) Sync the LFO oscillation rate to the tempo
4) Apply a filter
5) Sync the LFO the filter frequency
6) Modify the LFO oscillation rate with an external controller (ie. switch from 1/16 to 1/8 and back)

I'm pretty good a programming wobble bass effects on the computer. I failed to do so on the Ultra because I couldn't find a way to sync the LFO to the filter frequency. Maybe it can already be done and I just don't know how to do it, or maybe it's a feature that could be added.
In any case, I'd like to be able to apply a wobble effect to my electric bass through the Axe-FX, or to unprocessed sampled or synth tones via SPDIF
A bonus would be to be able to modify the LFO rate with an external controller pedal (though I'm pretty sure that can already be done)
