Amazing what's tucked away out of sight! This works very nicely, standalone too.

It was rather interesting sending Yoshimi with a basic square wave (pulse in
Yoshimi) to it direct on two channels, then looping via the KA6 on the other
two. The default setting for Q on lp2 has significant ringing - but the KA6
doesn't seem to be adding any to it, you just see the normal slope due to the AC
coupling at lower frequencies.

Bypassing the global filter gives a smaller, high frequency ring at all
corners of the square - very unusual.

Sine wave is pristine, and triangle (saw in Yoshimi) is nice too.
