korg poly 800 sequencer problems

2013-03-29 by erik

Hello, and thank you for welcoming me into your group. It's awesome that you've made it, as it is hard to find good info on these synths.

I wanted to ask a question about my poly 800's sequencer.. I recently had to reload the factory sounds to the synth (i did this via wav file and my computer) because I did the battery mod and lost the sounds. I have also performed the "moog slayer", FM, and 12/24 db switch mods to my synth. anyway, the problem I'm having is this: when I start the sequencer on (seemingly) any of the patches, it will run just fine for about 1-2 mins. and then it will make a "crash" noise and begins sequencing a high frequency. any help you might be able to lend me would be so very much appreciated. I can also send you a video clip of exactly whats happnin'.
Thank you for your time,
Erik Olson
