Revamping the poly 800

Revamping the poly 800

2003-05-13 by Evans Simard

I change the battery and make some cool mods but now I
want to reload the preset sound or better.

Type poly 800 factory patch in google, and there are sites that
have .wav files of the default patches. I never had any success back
in the day with using cassette back up, but it worked great from the
computer! I think I was just doing it wrong back then.

Last Saturday I used my Poly 800 in the studio after many years. I
wanted to use my Polymoog for the "vox humana" sound, but it's having
too many problems. So I used the Poly 800 as a substitute, and it
sounded awesome!! I used the "warm strings" patch (16, I think?) with
moog slayer filter, thru an MXR phaser and a Memory Man. It gave that
perfect Gary Numan "ooooooooooh" sound I wanted.

As far as the sequencer, I really like the sound of it synched to a
drum machine, but it's way too limited. Does anyone know a free MIDI
program I could use to do the same thing, but has more than 250 notes
and is editable?

Sorry Kenny, I haven't got to it yet. Keeping bugging me though.

Hi Mike,

Have you managed to get a sample of the Polymoog 'Vox Humana' yet ?
Sorry to be a pain like, but getting a wav sample of that patch is
harder to find than rocking horse sh!t !!!

Kenny

No, sorry Kenny. The Polymoog is still sitting in the corner in its
roadcase waiting to get tinkered with. Unfortunately there are a few
more repairs that have to go before it, so I don't when I can sample
it.
