Hmmm I was hoping there's something that would be possible to
duck-tape to the back of a polyvolver-kb and ignore -- surely the
actual _circuit_ is about the size of a quarter (add space for jacks),
but it looks like that's just not enough stuff for manufs to make a
profit on... also pretty much everything seems to require a power
supply.

Any electronics-types out there?  Is it possible to do this sort of
thing passively?

Maybe the PAIA circuit is the best bet, at least then I could easily
avoid a large clumsy enclosure...

BTW, those of you wondering why I don't just "use another mixer
channel":  besides the obvious issue of never having enough channels
available, I really hate having to fiddle with multiple identical
settings for what is conceptually a single instrument.  So a
"submixer" approach seems nice for this -- I thought Dave's idea of
the mix-input jacks on the poly-evolver was brilliant for this reason,
but then he had to go and leave it off the keyboard... :-(
