Hi all. Recent death in the family, hence no updates for a while. It certainly puts life and hobbies into perspective. Enjoy it while you can, I say. Anyway, I solved the Polysix MG issue. Replacing the electrolytic capacitors on KLM-366 Voice Board did not work – replacing the Key Assigner IC was the answer. Just a hunch that paid off. Strangely, I had tried freezer spray including on the original Key Assigner IC when the synth was warm and working as it should, but it did not provoke the issue to reappear. Anyway, the hunch paid off and it's sorted now. One last question: The synth's EG/Gate switch seems to work fine, but I have been a little thrown by the User Manual which says: “This [gate-type] envelope is not related to the EG in any way”: When I set the switch to gate, there is definitely a change and a gate effect. However, I can sometimes alter the sound with the ADSR when the switch is in gate position. Is this right? Or should the User Manual be taken literally? If there is something wrong, does anyone have any ideas what the cause might be?
