good work!
the "Noisy SFX", "Hi-Q Filter" and "Scale" samples don't sound anything at
all like what i'd expect to hear from a poly-800... to my ears it's more
like a cross between a DX-100 and an ARP 2600.
"It Might Be Music" is also good, but less extreme. it sounds more like a
poly-800... but with something different...
and you're in philly? so under the Picture, Sample, Lunch-Ware License you
can take me to lunch at kingdom of the vegetarian (11th, near arch st)
next time i'm in town? it's right around the corner from 8th street music,
we can look for lost treasure!
hhmmm... in the picture, you soldered to the end of R22 that's physically
closer to R23... the other end (that's electrically connected to R23) is
supposed to get the connection. it seems to work for you, but i suspect
you might be losing a little bit of the low end from the range of your
filter cutoff.
maybe i should make that more clear in the diagram...?
