Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

I had a few key rubbers missing from my Polysix. I had
a broken tv lying around and I took apart the remote
control and found somewhat similar rubber pads there
and fitted them on my Polysix. So far so good, works
like a charm... :)

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I have already had them cleaned but the technician
said a couple of 
them are on there way out.  I assume this would be a
common problem in 
a few years as mine is in fairly good condition.  I
have been told by 
some people that other korg key rubbers will fit but
others have told 
me that they wont.  They are all ok for now but I
imagine soon I might 
have some keys that wont work :-(
I guess the only solution would be to get the midi kit
and control the 
polysix externally.
Cheers,
Meezy
