[sdiy] MIDI CC with Pots

[Roman Sowa]

Considering that all DAWs/sequencers are fast as lightning, they will 
retransmit incoming CC no later than 5ms later, while scan rate of the 
synth pots may be in range of 20m, which is pretty fast anyway. So the 
repeated CC comes into the synth at the time when it thinks the value 
hasn't chnaged a bit, no matter how far you have moved thet pot during 
those 20ms, before next scan.

OTOH I agree that the elegant way (or rather most important rule in data 
centers for example) is to always keep one master/source of data, in 
this case SQ. With local-off synth knob becomes pure MIDI controller and 
change inside synth voice is performed depending on incoming MIDI only.
But when it's impossible to notice a difference, who cares if it's 
elegant or not.
