I don't see any major reason why you could't use one or two fully floating
VCRs to replace any given pot.
That should allow you to make a voice voltage controllable without affecting
the sound.
In many cases a simple means of adding CV will work fine with no noticable
sonic change.
There's a reason why all the big manufacturers did it that way.
The SEM is non-CV-able because it is a re-creation of the original.
No point spending extra money on it just to have it miss the point.
