Subject: Re: [korgpolyex] Joystick ???

The fourth tap on the pots is a center short. It is supposed to ensure that the POT's send a "zero" when in the center position. But they are terribly unreliable.

So just ignore the center taps on the POTS. They are marked as "4" where the POTS go into the joystick board (KLM-599).

While on that topic, Im having a hard time understanding the Poly 61 (and Poly 800) joysticks. 
Ill be removing the joystick completely in favour of regular wheels for pitch and pitch mod + FC mod pot. 
The pitch pot I can just change to the new wheel, but I also want to split the frequency and pitch mod to two pots like another guy did, but the third terminal in the middle of the others and the service manual confuses me.
