Korg Mono/Poly

Hello everybody,

I'd like to welcome two new members maxsoundstudios and rokizilla who
joined (indepent from each other).

@maxsoundstudios and rokizilla: Feel free to introduce yourself. Though
there is not a lot of traffic in this group, there is from time to time
quite interesting information coming over this line...


(...and keep your eyes open - I did a lot of modifications to my
Monopoly last week; I had not yet the time to document them all, but it
is coming soon... :-) )

Hello everybody,

as I promised last week I made most of the documentation on the
modifications of my monopoly.

The topics in short:
* Disable the reset of key assign mode when switching to effects mode
* V-Trigger to S-Trigger Adapter for the Arpeggio Clock
* Disable clock-reset of arpeggio in internal clock-mode
* Extend the speed range for MG1
* Change the envelopes speed and characteristics
* VCO 4 as alternative modulation source for the modwheel for filter
cross modulation (this one is still missing in the document, but already
done in my MP).

For the ugly details see:
http://fa.utfs.org/diy/korg_monopoly/modifications.html

I will add pictures and audio demos hopefully soon.

Comments are welcome.


Florian

Hello

I now added further pictures to my modification page, and added some
more details in the description. Audio demos are still to be made.

Hi Florian, I'm new to the group - eagerly awaiting a Mono/Poly that should arrive in the next week.

For mods to the Mono/Poly, there's the classic sample-and-hold mod...

Thanks Chip, the S&H looks pretty good - I'd used the one listed on Yves Usson's website, older fet based design that worked out for my CSY-2AE retrofit... The one from Old Crow uses the integrated S&H which definitely would be easier in some respects - I'll have to see what else he might have posted.
