Subject: New Key Contacts Work Great!

From: chipaudette@yahoo.com

Hi All,


When I first got my Polysix, it had a bunch of dead keys (thank you eBay).  I fixed them the same way that I fixed the dead keys on my Mono/Poly...with a daub of CaiKote for each key contact.  It worked great!


But, now that it's been a few years, the keys on my Mono/Poly stopped working.  Luckily, though, LA Synth Co started selling new key contacts for the Mono/Poly, Polysix, and other synths of that era.  I bought a set for the Mono/Poly and installed them.  They work great! 


If you're interested, you can check out the replacement process at the link below.  As the Polysix and Mono/Poly have the same type of keybed / key contacts, the process would be the same.

It's so fantastic that they've made these pieces available again.  I don't know how they're getting them made, but it's a great service.
