for the bypass cap on the power supply you have some info here

Usually somewhat pointless (the resistors, not necessarily the capacitors). 10 ohm without capacitors (either using them as fuses, expecting them to die if something’s shorted, or possibly just cargo culting, trying to do the above but forgetting how things work, see “power sins” [here](https://northcoastsynthesis.com/news/design-mistakes-in-synth-schematics/) for more).

PWM it’s with an external signal in PWM input, and the PWM pot ajust the level of signal in to zero to max , there should be no problem with that, I think you are talking about the PW pot

for PW pot you can add a trimmer pot on the pot for adjust what you want  
(to pin 1 or 3 or both of the pot)

but did i understand well your problem?
