Unit Dead, or something like it
2004-06-23 by Júlio César
My Poly800 mk2 was working fine (with some sudden turn-offs) but
yesterday, it gone dead (or nearly dead). No sound, it turns on, the
11 patch blinks on the display, but it doesn´t make any sound, or
even let me change the patch, and it turns off before i can load the
original patch... I think it might be the AC adaptor that fried
something inside (i´ve been using an AC adaptor from a Korg
Electribe, same voltage, it worked until now) or the internal
battery...The Poly seemed very "temperamental" since i´ve done a sort
of "Moog Slayer" mod... Now it seems dead...
