Subject: Re: [PolySix] Schematics of voice board

If you want to make your Polysix "whole" again, someone rebuilds damaged
boards for a reasonable price. Old Crow is his name (real is Scott), site
is at http://www.oldcrows.net/~oldcrow/synth/korg/polysix/index.html

I should know, he returned my beloved PolySix to working order after it
being out of commish for 6 years (couldn't find a tech who could
successfully fix it). The battery leak damage is almost exclusive to a
single board, the KLM-367, where the battery resides. You send your
damaged board to him. He either sends back your board or one that he had
repaired from a previous p-6.

He did this a year ago for me, so I am not sure what his current charge
would be. I highly recommend it however.
