Korg Poly800/EX800 Users

I sat in with a band and had the same problem, not being able to tune 
down to the guitars. My quick and dirty solution was to play all the 
songs transposed half a step, which meant my actual chords/notes played 
were different from what everybody else played. It was a hassle but it 
worked. I had no manual for my EX-800 and hadn't found this user's group 
yet. I'm curious to see what others will come up with.

you could always duct tape the pitch bend joystick down all the way 
to the left and then adjust the tuning slider and bend slider 
accordingly.

Hook a rubber band around it and stretch it down to the strap holder 
on the side.
