How about this one:
Replace each pot with a tandem (stereo) pot. The second half of the pot 
just generates a voltage proportional to the pot setting (of course the 
tandem pot is not required if the pot already does that). Build a cheap 
digital voltmeter into the module (or synth) and a selector switch. 
Then you can read each pot's setting quite accurately.
