Looking for a bit of feedback from people who use LB302.

Now I've no idea if this can be done for 1.1, probably not since we have
so little time. But still: the thing to decide is what to do with accent.

So far, the accent toggle led in LB302 has been there as a sort of
teaser, forever inactive, as a promise of something that's been planned
to implement. I'd like to finally realize this dream, but I'm undecided
on the best way to do it.

Option 1: keep the accent led and make it functional. Accent for all
notes will be toggled by switching/automating the accent led.

Option 2: remove the accent led. Instead, use note volume, which is
currently unused, to implement accent (this way is used on some other
303-like monosynths).

Both options have their pros and cons. For example: option 1 makes it
easy to toggle accent with a midi controller switch, which makes it
suitable for live play. However, it's harder for composing, since you
have to use automation patterns and manually synchronize them with the
notes. Option 2 is easier for composing as you can use the note volume
sliders, but it can be a bit difficult for live playing. On the other
hand, it could also be a benefit in live playing to be able to use key
pressure to control accent.

Or maybe some combination of these approaches? Opinions welcome.
