Re: [chromapolaris] membrane buttons

Considering how many Polarii there are, and the typical failure mode, 
I'm surprised that someone like ChipForBrains/Technology Transplant 
hasn't bothered to make a replacement overlay.  They made a small panel 
for the Prophet-600 and the Moog Source (if memory serves), and there 
are oodles of companies out there who could make the panel:

http://www.spectrasymbol.com/
http://www.printecelectronics.com/products.html

I'm sure it wouldn't be that cheap for low volume - but I think if mine 
finally breaks for good, I might consider it.  A Polaris with a 
self-illuminated panel (http://www.lumitex.com/membrane_switches.html) 
would be pretty unique.
