Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

I paid 200 US for mine.  I'm not sure what the conversion rate is, but
mine was also damaged.... (battery problems... surprise!)

	sounds like a good deal

THe dead key might just be a worse-off version of the "iffy" key.  You
might be able to clean them both up.  or you might also be able to
change the pads around so the dead key lands elsewhere... probably
doesn't help much though..


you might want to inspect the output socket, but AFAIK, it's a Mono
output anyhow.  This means that if you are using a stereo 1/4" jack,
the audio will only be on one channel.  You can instead plug into the
headphone jack (turn volume way down) or get a mono-stereo adapter, or
look into modifying it for stereo output (listed in order of ease)

I haven't looked into it, but the person that did this modification to
their JX-3P said it should work on a PolySix..

you *could* cut out the new battery and move it, but you'll have to
solder wires into the battery holes to make the connections anyhow, so
you are probably best off just doing the mod from old crow replacing
the rechargeable with a lithium-ion.

I love my Poly6.  Nuff said.  I think a couple issues are still dodgy
with mine, but I can deal with it.
