Default Request: Friendly names for fx parameters

In envelope lanes, I was wondering if there is a way we can add friendly names to fx parameters that may have the same names so that we can identify which parameters we're adjusting if we would like to save a track template for a Virtual studio instrument.

I'm using a VSTi that has fx parameters with the same name, they're also not given a unique identifier that represents there purpose. Please vote me in, or share any secrets if you have any lol

You can already do this, if a bit extra work necessary. First you need to add the automatable parameter to track controls, then you can right-click it and choose "Alias", then rename. After this you can hide the track control, envelope will be renamed as well.

Aliasing an envelope lane directly, without the track controls knob dance, has been requested several times.

PS You can also do it from the [Param] button on the FX window, just above the FX GUI.

Hey, this actually works: Running action "FX: Set alias for last touched FX parameter" after clicking on a parameter in the plugin. No need to do the track controls dance! Assign it to a toolbar or something, done.
