As John described, it would be nice to have the functionality of 2 420's
(I opt out here since I don't have a 420 but do have an MS20, and
another part of my reluctance to purchase a 420 is that I've not found
notch filters all that useful).

As an alternative would it be possible to mod the 420 with a switch (and
whatever else necessary) to run the signal into the HPF and then into the
LPF when the 420 Mode switch is  set to HPF?  One would still have one
freq and one resonance pot, however.

[Or is this just another one of my dumb questions/comments?]
