Only the passage of time will decide your genius . . .

BUT I don't think what you are proposing will work--I am a total newcomer 
to
MIDI, but the MS 20 is more IDI than MIDI, time-period wise. I believe the
modules will respond to CV and external inputs, but all those 1's and 0's
will probably mess it's head . . .  HMMMMM . . . 

maybe you ought to try it 

(but don't blame me if you cook your buddy's MS 20)

any comments David K. or Steve B. (or is this too sophomoric to even be
dignified by a response ;)
