Korg Poly800/EX800 Users

Well, you need to get the tape dump audio and send it to the Poly-800. You can 
get that tape dump file right here from the files section for the Poly-800.

But you can also download this excel spreadsheet and enter in the first patch 
manually.

You will need to learn how to enter a patch manually, starting with pressing the 
Prog/Para button to get into parameter edit mode.

Good luck.

Mike.
