The only trick is finding space on the panel to install the controls. I
thought of perhaps placing the controls where the pitch/mod wheels are,
then having the pitch/mod wheels in a little side-box.

I could probably place the controls in a single row above the P6 osc.
controls, but the space is rather tight due to the circuit boards
underneath. I'll figure out something eventually...

p.s. People sell "broken" Polysix keyboards on ebay all the time for ~$100
typical. You can fix them (they all suffer from the leaky NiCad battery
problem) for about $5 in parts and a few hours of circuit-board fixups.
