hellos, and patching an axxe

[Paul Zyla]

Synth-DIYers:
    Well, I've been lurking here for about two weeks now, so I thought I'd send my first message.  My name is Paul Zyla, and I'm a 17 year old kid from West Virginia who is extremely interested in building and modifying my synths.  I own an Alesis QS7, an ARP Axxe, a Roland SH-1000, a Yamaha TX81z, and a home-model Wurlitzer EP (one of the ones with tubes).  I'm not that experienced in Synth-DIY stuff; I did a small mod to my Axxe adding a switch to the LFO triggering, and I have built a PAiA midi2cv8 that I can't get to work.  I have a pretty good basic knowledge of electronics, and I know which end of my soldering iron is the hot end. :)
    Anyway, my question is:  How difficult would it be to add a few patch points to my Axxe?  I found myself really wishing that I could patch the square LFO to the VCA the other night, and then I thought that I'd really like to be able to patch the square LFO to a bunch of other stuff, too.  That, and I'd like to add a point so that I could patch an envelope follower to the filter so that I could use it rather like an auto-wah with my bass.  I know that this would probably be a pretty involved process, but is it over my head?  I'm really wanting to turn my Axxe into something weird.  The idea intrigues me. ;)  Thanks in advance for all your help.
