A few questions/comments based on what limited info is available.

1) Curious as to why the Master/Slave mode? Couldn't this be accomplished by simply normalling the CV jack to the row above? This could potentially enable the same CV to be a toggle one row and be level on the next...for lack of a better term "overloading" the functionality of a single CV source.

2) when master/slave, can one switch be 2 in>1Out and the other 1in>2out etc?

3) reply " or by the state of the manual control button (not pressed = I/O1, pressed = I/O2)"...

would actually prefer manual toggle on/toggle off each press than a "hold on, release for off" for a number of reasons. (space to operate when patched, not losing a free hand, lifetime of the button, personal preference)

Hello,

you find my comments written inline.

Best wishes

This would affect only the CV inputs. But you may also want to switch all
switches of the group manually.

etc?

Not sure what you mean. The switches are bidirectional, like normal
mechanical switches. Or do you mean that the state of the master switch is
copied to the slaves (that's how it is now, i.e. the states of the slaves
are overwritten by the state of the master switch).

I/O1, pressed = I/O2)"...

Also not sure what you mean.
