I went for the mungo kit is was well priced £80 I think and love the way the arp can be set to different timings with midi control including triplets.  the only draw backs on it it that as it takes control of your MG2 that mg will no longer adjust seamlessly it will move in the degrees of its timing and as the kit attached to the key assign board rather then the voice board its self the pitch wheel information doesn't bend pitch but steps up or down in semi tones.  As if you were just running your finger up the keyboard. 
Kenton kits are good but cost a bomb I have one in my Prophet 5 and its very good but don't know if the LFO timings as usefully as on the Mungo one.  No experience of the other kit you linked to but it looks fairly generic rather then being made for the monopoly.

Hey peoples.
Which retrofit would you recommend to for the Mono/Poly?
I have a Kenton Pro polo but im really tired of all the caples and th extra powersupply.

So far i'm considering:
  • The Kenton retrofit DIY kit, 380 dollars
  • The Highly liquid UMR, 41 dollars
  • Mungo enterprises, ? dollars
Do you guys know of any other products? What would you recommend? Price is an issue...

Thanks
Jeppe
