[sdiy] Axoloti CV capabilities?

Oliver Gillet's Mutable Instruments hardware designs use similar processors, include the CV in/outs and are already set up for Eurorack. So you could build/buy a "Clouds" module and reprogram it. Perhaps if the uPs are close enough, you could run Axoloti code on it?
