Reply to Maschine Mikro : automation with... 1 knob?

I'm seriously considering getting a maschine mikro because it is so much more affordable at the moment than a full sized maschine, but I'm worried about losing functionality by not having the 8 macro knobs. I have Massive, so being able to tweak the macros would be really useful. can one still control one of those knobs at a time with the Mikro's knob?
basically: can I still record automation with just the single knob on the mikro?
