i realise this is slightly unhelpful half advice but i have a very
clear memory of reading - somewhere - instructions on how to install
gate control of record on an a112. it might even have been here.

soldering gate control of knobs isnt as bad as you think, you're not
tinkering with the circuits, just the wires going to the knobs. if
you've not done it before just practise for a couple of hours on some
crud (and if you're like a professional repairman then my apologies...)
