Pic upload, and mk3

2002-02-05 by Lee Mulvogue

G'day all

Just uploaded the first of a couple of shots of my red poly to my site - the
photos weren't too great, a bit blurry and some reflected the flash too much,
but you should be able to get the idea. It's under the My Music section,
just follow the Poly800 link
http://www.baudalign.com

On the topic of chorus vs delay - is the delay circuit of the mk2 on the
small board behind the "patch sheet", like the chorus is on the mk1? Just
wondering what the chances are of getting hold of one of these boards and
doing some mods so that you can have both chorus AND delay. But it may cost
more than a seperate FX pedal, so...? Or perhaps there were only some minor
differences between the boards - maybe some mods to switch between mk1 chorus
and mk2 delay...

PS. What was the final verdict on the usefulness of tweaking the chorus
circuit?

The delay board sits under the keyboard on the lower half of the synth -
perhaps the Mk II main board is smaller? You'd need to make a new EPROM
with code to support both devices, anyway.

'Moog Slayer' mod

2002-02-05 by Richard Kilpatrick

I've found two different approaches to the moog slayer mod. The first
seems simple, replacing the trim pots with larger ones mounted on the
front panel. The other one uses 50K pots but with a link to the power
supply and only a couple of connections to the point where the trimmers
were mounted.

I'm going to do this mod to my Mk II, if possible, but I want to order
the parts when I order a new battery. What's the best one!
