You can download the factory patches from this site.  It's a wav 
file.  In order to load the bank in your Poly 800, you'll have to 
transfert the data with an audio jack (1/8)connect from an audio 
source (walkman, computer audio out) to the cassette connection 
located at the rear of the keyboard.  You have to put the little 
button to the enable position and send the audio signal (kind of a 
fax tone).  Don't worry, it's not workimg very efficiently, you'll 
have a lot of error message, it' because you have to set the level 
proprely.  A couple of try and you'll succeed.

It's because yo have to store your patches.  When you programm a 
sound, you have to put the little button at the rear of the keyboard 
(the one for the program) at the enable position, then you press the 
store button and enter the number of the patch, and go back to the 
rear and put the program button to the disable position.

VoilĂ !  Have fun.
