hello everyone,

i just got a poly800 and i think i've seen just about any and all moog
slayer information i could find online. at first i wanted to have the
option to turn the mod off but i ditched that idea. i'm gonna go to
radio shack and pick up some 50k pots. the one thing i'm worried about
is the resonance pot. i played with the built in trim pot and it was
way more than enough resonance. i dont want to blow any speakers out so
should i use a different pot for that? i want as much cutoff as i can
get but i don't think i'll need too much resonance. i might do that
little modification to put the enable switches on the front panel. so
any help would be cool. i've read the current posts about the guy that
lost his banks every time he turned it off after he did the mod. i'm
still unsure of how those wires are connected. does the wire go to the
resistor on that cardboard? does it go to the diode next to it? it
seems every site has a different way of doing that. thanks to anyone
who can explain this.
