New Mod: White Noise
2007-01-20 by belochim
Hello Poly-Friends, Some time ago I ran across a german Poly 800 modding site and discovered a way of modding which hasn't been done before so far. The link of the site is: http://www.memi.com/makers/hwsw/basteln/poly800_mod.html on the site there are funktions of some of the VRs listed. I'll post them here: VR1 - DCO Pitch adjust VR2 - VCF Frequency adjust VR3 - White Noise level adjust VR4 - DCO Fine tune adjust VR5 - VCF resonance adjust So what I did was break out the VR3 and replace it with a pot of the same value. The value is written on the white cap of the VR. For instance if it says "10k" there use a 10k pot. If it says "B10k" use the same pot - just this time a logarithmical one. It's been a while since I did this mod so I can't tell the exact values of the VR anymore. But I guess the hints given above must be good enough for some modding fun. The results add an interesting bubbling substance to the reso- and cutoff-mod. Love your machine! Beloc
