[sdiy] Resonance control taper ?

[rburnett at richieburnett.co.uk]

It's also possible to adjust the apparent "taper" of a potentiometer by 
shunting the wiper to one or both ends of the track with fixed resistors 
of various values.

As soon as you have programmability, all the controls *do* become 10K linear because they're just a panel being scanned and having their values sent to DACs. If you need a specific reverse-log curve for a specific control, it's a look-up table away.
