You could simply record some MIDI (or insert a MIDI track and draw/paint some notes into an event), route the MIDI to a VSTi, then enable loop playback (Q is the shortcut) and play with the VSTi's parameters while the MIDI plays back over and over.

Hit the insert softsynth button next to the busses. Choose a softsynth. Then open a MIDI track (ctrl-alt-q). Set the MIDI input to your keyboard controller, and the MIDI output to the bus with the synth on it. Arm the track, hit record, play some stuff. Hit stop. Now you can route the MIDI track to whatever synth you like, and mess with it on the fly.
