I agree, but maybe we could keep the buttons somehow, so that we could
use those for the short-range values. Besides, I think we could find a
encoder with really low resolution so we wouldn't go from 0 to 99 just
by touching the knob.

About the switches, I don't know, but the idea of replacing the
buttons with a dial seems more plausible to me than changing
parameters with dedicated switches.

I'm glad people more handy than myself are interested, though!

Best regards,
Philip Linde

parameters are just 0-1-2 or similar. It seems like it would be a lot
of trouble with little reward. I would rather see switches for
discrete parameters, like high-mid-low for osc range. Or on off
switches for the waveform shape at 16,8,4,2,1. After I finish
rebuilding my Yamaha PM1000 I'll look at it. But I am an analog audio
geek. I know very little about digital control.
