Korg Poly800/EX800 Users

rather than continuing to rely on a Kenton box to generate analog triggers via MIDI, I'd like to ask if there's anywhere inside Poly-800 that one can find like a +5V signal that goes high when you trigger a new note. 

If not, are there any unused latches of any sort on the Hawk board that could be addressed from the EG 3 routines?

This would certainly be a groovy addition to the "Stage Two" idea.

If you have the later versions of the HAWK board, then there is in fact an unused latch available. However, I would have to rewrite some of the software to ensure that the software compatible with all versions of HAWK's (not something I want to do).

But, there are three completely unused latches on the HAWK board now, that just need to be brought out (with care).

I will certainly modify the HAWK board to bring them all out to a pin header.


I shall have a look at the board design and see if I can write up the mod's needed for you. Will take me a few weeks at least. So email me again if you don't hear from me.

Mike
