Or you could also solder on some potentiometers (knobs) onto these pots (VR1 and VR4) so you can tune it. Just be sure to use a tuner for accuracy. This way you wont have to open up your case everytime you want to make an adjustment.  lanrosta

open up your poly, and on the main board, look for VR1 and VR4, two 
little white knobbies.  run the keyboard through a tuner, and mess 
with those guys till you get it how you want it.  i believe VR1 is 
coarse and VR4 is fine tune.
