I was thinking of something far simpler. Keypad - fixed voltage amazing in 1972.

Ken reminded me that my idea was pretty basic and that much more tricked out useful  
version (ie automated) is CGS59 B plus 12a s would do all I wanted, basically give the 
equvalent of a Serge 16x16 programmer/sequencer without touch pads. This is something 
enormously powerful compared to a keypad triggering a single voltage.   I would guess a 
practical version of this would be a an 8x8 (1 59 b basic package plus 4 a boards).  So it 
looks like I'm onto a version of the programmer sequencer.  With the proper panel it is an 
easy build and I can add a port for a keypad of other performance controller if I don't want 
to walk over to my 301.
