Re: [korgpolyex] Late! install of v1.3 hawkmod in ex800

2019-09-01 by support

you must install the jumpers (if it's a single sided version). So you
need to life those sockets out of the board. Use a very thin tweezers
or thin flat screw driver to work them out slowly.
If the board is double sided, it's rather obvious that jumpers are not
needed.
