Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

I loaded all the patches in again, and the same problems are occuring.
Just a lot of static sounds from the main output, though no static is
coming out of the headphone plug.

Again, the patches should not be the issue, as when I switch into
manual mode, I am not able to make any sounds appear.

Anybody have any clue of what I should do next?

Thanks,

- Peter
