The two main reasons why I don't have an MKS-70. The MKS-80
sounds a bit better (probably thanks to the VCOs) but not good
enough to make me want one (probably because of the 24 dB/oct
filters).

If you find a way to do that, please let us know.

I would be happy with a simple 12/24 switch. In fact, I would be
happy if it was hard wired in 12 dB/oct mode, but that's just me.
