Pitch bend not working and a few other problems.

2013-05-06 by eric justin

Hey Gang
I have a Poly 800 first generation mkI that is giving me some problems. The pitch bend doesn't seem to work at all, though VCF/DCO mods(up and down) work fine. I sprayed some deoxit in the bend range slider but it didn't help. Next, there is a problem with the sequencer. I put the p800 is sequencer enable mode and was able to program a sequence. The start/stop button worked fine in this mode but once I disabled the sequencer and pushed start, nothing happened. The sequencer started up fine when I synced it to my MPC, just wouldn't start with the internal clock. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the start/stop button or something deeper. My suspicion is that something is wrong on the little board that contains the sliders, but I'm not sure where to start looking.

Eric
