Subject: Re: AW: [PolySix] Key Rubbers

From: Antti <sunday_vegas@yahoo.co.uk>

I had a few key rubbers missing from my Polysix. I had
a broken tv lying around and I took apart the remote
control and found somewhat similar rubber pads there
and fitted them on my Polysix. So far so good, works
like a charm... :)

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I have already had them cleaned but the technician
said a couple of
them are on there way out. I assume this would be a
common problem in
a few years as mine is in fairly good condition. I
have been told by
some people that other korg key rubbers will fit but
others have told
me that they wont. They are all ok for now but I
imagine soon I might
have some keys that wont work :-(
I guess the only solution would be to get the midi kit
and control the
polysix externally.
Cheers,
Meezy
