Subject: Re: [PolySix] Low cost note-on/off MIDI for PolySix

Well, cool.
Will send $30 today.

Regarding Polysix MIDI used on the Monopoly -- I've attached other MIDI
key assigner boards from the P6 to the MP; one issue to be dealt with
is the fact that the Monopoly keyboard starts on F, rather than C.
