Oh-oh, very interesting indeed!! This is the evidence how old synths can be enhanced nowadays, well done! Maybe, in those days they made them, they decided not to add some features in order to keep the price a little lower, or ( more probably ) to make them not to compete with their higher price products... ;-) . Did I mention that a chap made a modding on a Korg DW8000 adding some extra custom waveforms banks to the original 16? A genius indeed, but he wrote that he doesn't want to share the project with other owners... Lack of time and too much effort, he writes, but I know that lots of owners ( me as first ) would also pay for the only infos as well, if not the diy kit.... And I bet this would be accomplished  with not so much effort... ( envy,envy....) :-D

       Just when you think that you've seen it all:
 This guy has already figured out how to upgrade the
 Matrix' filters to Xpander-like
 flexibility.

    There
 are a couple of flaws, though. First, you'd have to
 build six PCBs and figure out how to fit them into the
 M-1000's housing. Second, you'd have to rewrite the
 firmware - and add some more CV multiplexing. But
 well. 
 Still, I think
 tinkering with the M1000's hardware and firmware is well
 possible. I've started collecting the basic knowledge in
 a Google Doc - have a look, and if you'd like to add
 something, comment.
