Unfortunately I don't think that you can have patch specific global settings (ie:  preset 1 may be a duophonic, preset 2 may be independent mono).  If you need to do this live you may want to go PEK which has the combo mode.

It's really a  matter of remembering how to quicky switch the MEK to mono and DEVO to internal clock.  Still, it's easier than playing a modular on stage.  You would probably want a second controller as well if you want to modulate the root note of your sequence.  If you have ever dreamt about owning a Taurus, you should look at a foot controller like a Roland PK-5.  It's Prog-tastic and Berlin Schooley at the same time.
