Subject: Polysix mod kit: Polysex

Hi,

I would like to announce my Korg Polysix modification kit, the Tubbutec
Polysex. http://tubbutec.de/polysex/

It adds an additional control panel to the Polysix and increases its
musical possibilities.

There are two different mods which can both be used at the same time:

The pitch mod routes the envelope to the pitch. You can choose the
polarity of the envelope and the reference point in the envelope where
the pitch is not changed. This mod is very useful to create portamento
like effects, brass instruments, percussive sounds and much more.

The second mod is the voice spread mod which is a very powerful tool.
You can determine the amount of voice spread, route the envelope and one
of two LFOs to it and switch voice spreading on and off in poly mode.
This mod can be used to adjust and modulate the fatness of the sound in
unison mode, in poly mode you can modulate how detuned the Polysix
sounds. This can lead to more natural sounds, but can also be used to
accomplish complex sound effects.
