Yes!!! I installed the moog slayer mod. Thanks for the advice Russ, that soldering is
tricky indeed.

I really wanted to keep the face plate on so I drilled the taper pot holes straight
though the bottom quadrant of the plate from the inside. To my surprise it ended up
on the edge of the faceplate on the outside? It looks great (in my opinion) and you can
still read the korg name and model number. Check out the photos I posted.

I'm really glad I did this mod. It turned my mediocre hybrid synth into a bubbling
chirping monster. I wish I would have recorded some patches before I did the mod so
I could compare them now. People aren't kidding when they say this could blow your
speakers and ears, when the oscillator starts self oscillating, the volume jumps
incredibly.

My best regards for Atom for showing us non-electronic people how to trick out your
synth!

I love my EX-800!!!
