My P6 self-modulates (if thats the right term)
Basically it was fine until I literally moved it to another room and then
turned it on (something mustve happened during transport) and all my
patches would modulate if I hold the key down for longer than 2 seconds. So
I went ahead and replaced the battery and diode, removing the capacitor like
on Old Crows website. My battery really didnt leak that bad; it just
corroded on its side, but nothing seemed to hit the board, so I didnt
bother doing the extensive repair for fear that Id totally ruin my P6.
Maybe Ill go through and replace ICs if I can find them
but thats the
problem I have with mine; self modulation. And I had to reload the patches
and they didnt all work, so thats another problem. I can try again I just
havent cuz Im being lazy. Irritating, nonetheless

I replaced one of the IC's near the battery, which had black legs.
Apart from that the whole board really looks ok, even the the traces.
And I checked every trace with the multimeter.
Personally I think it can't be the KLM-367, because saving works again,
like it did before. The fact that only every sixth note is wrong is in
my opinion a clear indicator for a problem on the KLM-366. And that
looks even better than the KLM-367. But I will see.
One thing to note is: That small cable that goes from the battery to
the other board above was black from the inside. On the other side it
was still copper-colored. So I guess some of that icky battery stuff
must have been crawling up inside of the cable. So I consider it to be
a good idea to check that cable as well in order to replace it if
needed.
What's the problem with your Polysix?
Mike
