[sdiy] Cheap 3 Octave Keyboards (UK)

[Tony Allgood]

>Anyone here built their expandable Polysynth?

Yes... but I'm now using it as a foot stool. No kidding. I built up mine
as a eight voice on one box. Nice sounding... but tempermental on the
tuning front. I stripped it down to a Four voice ages ago, after it
caught fire during a heavy session. I have no idea why the power
transformer did that.

Now the box stands under used, except as a foot stool. But basically it
needs a good work out with decent metal film and Holco resistors. The
original 5% carbons I used are a little drifty.

I think if I ever do anything with it is to use the CEMs for other
things. Sad but true.
