Is it possible to tweak Helm knobs during playback and have them recorded?

Using Ardour and Helm, sometimes I'll record something (midi) and later find out that playing with some knobs like distortion or reverb yields a nice effect during certain parts. I can't do that "live" unless I'm playing with only one hand.

So is there a way to record MIDI, play it back and record my playing with the knobs?

Sure, it's called automation.
