[sdiy] Unique sounding modules that can't have voltage control?

I'd hate to add any sort of servo to change the motor speeds in a Mellotron.  They were flaky enough as it was.

What are circuits where:

1. the circuit is available as a modular synthesizer module, or a
similar subcircuit in a non-modular synth

2. the module has a resistive potentiometer or slider on its front panel

3. the module does not have a cv input for the same control

4. adding a cv input is either impossible or would change the sound of
the circuit in an important way

Honestly, I can’t think of any. If everything else fails, you can still use a motorised pot, as someone else already wrote. Even if the control is not done by a potentiometer (say, a moveable record or playback head in a tape echo), you could still use some sort of mechanical servo.
