Hi, Mike, I know opinions on recapping can differ, so there s two times maybe . In all cases it can t be a mistake to check how they look. I have included PSU

- maybe change electrolytic caps in PSU, after so many years maybe they need to be replaced NO NO NO. Electrolytic capacitors from 1989 are going to be OK.

Are internal demo songs OK? Do they play? Anyhow, you can try following. I would do this: - if machine was not used for longer time, leave it switched on

Thank you Vincenzo, I am going to re-check all of my work first and then will investigate replacing the chips. I am hoping to buy an oscilloscope and learn

Thanks, The Poly behaved perfectly normal (aside from the non-working keys which needed contacts cleaned) so I really suspect something was damaged when I

Yes, that s what the step sequencer looks. You can check the sequencer switch. Check out the schematics in the files section for help on tracing the specific

I ve double checked and the display still shows 1.8 50 01 with the sequencer switch at disabled. Various combinations of switches have no impact.

Hi Don, thanks for the quick answer. I ll double check that but I m pretty confident the sequencer switch is disabled. It s possible that maybe the switch is

That looks like a sequencer step display. Did you accidentally move the sequencer enable switch on the back? Don B. From: mailto:korgpolyex@yahoogroups.com

Thanks Mike.. I did notice something odd about P2 47. seems it is values 1 AND 2, not 0 and 1 when I go to change it.

I just tried that second patch out, nice. Makes for some interesting and varying rhythmical patterns! Nice one Mike. Louis
2015-03-04 by Michael Hawkins
Glad you re enjoying it. I just now quickly created another patch where I use LFO2 as the 2nd modulator to attenuate the influence of LFO1 while also using
2015-03-04 by Michael Hawkins
Yes, the rate of LFO1 can be modulated by SLFO3 and the rate of LFO2 can be modulated by SLFO4. See extended parameters 16, 17 for LFO1 and 26, 27 for LFO2.
