Re: [korgpolyex] rack-mount mod

The step key is used to get into extended parameter mode. That could be changed.

It's also used to get into global mode. That one is a little tricky to change but it could be done except it would have to use the Chord or Hold switches - dang, they're not on the EX800 at all.

Hmmmm, what to do?

Mike.

dremel tool... soldering iron... regardless of the matrix and cabling

i would keep the current LED display... it would take up a lot of space in
a 1U rack, but would be manageable.

so, are the sequencer controls used for anything beyond the sequencer?
