Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Hey all,

I have a Polysix that I had MIDIed up back in '01. Battery was replaced 2 years before that. Worked fine until last fall when at first it wouldn't retain the patch memory settings, at least until it warmed up. Sounded like a bad IC32 SRAM chip according to the Old Crow.

But now every time each patch comes up fine right away but now they can't be edited. So the patches now ARE being remembered correctly but can't be changed. ??????

Is the board going up due to undetected corrosion (none visible since the battery change)? A different IC chip going bad? Any ideas?

Is this worth having fixed again or it is time to sell it for parts and just focus on my MS2000?

Any comments/ideas appreciated.
