Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

As I said in my email earlier today:

With a few exceptions, most parts are readily available at Mouser. There are
a couple parts that are a little harder to dig up but the parts list
includes sources for those. It might make sense for a group buy to be formed
around those parts to save everyone some hassle. I don't want to do that
myself, just a suggestion.

There ARE some parts for which WE know of no "perfect" replacement. That
includes the original connectors (you can used breakaway headers just fine,
but the connector doesn't lock like on the original) and the thermistor.
There are thermistors out there, so a replacement might be available, we
just didn't really test them.

On my prototype, the thermistor is the ONLY part which isn't brand new.
