Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Success! The new TC5514 is installed and I have 32 working presets. The
other main problem on this Polysix is related to at least a couple of other
threads I've seen people discussing. It used to have major problems with
distortion on voices 5 and 6. After hosing it down with deoxit a couple of
times and doing a lot of detailed cleaning, it is now to the point where the
distortion is just about gone, but these two voices still take a lot longer
than the others to warm up and get in tune. For voice 5, that could be 30
minutes. I don't know why there is so much crud on the 366 board in the area
of IC 35-38, or what it is or why it's so hard to get off, but I intend to
just keep cleaning since it makes a noticable difference every time I get an
area cleaned.

I ordered half a dozen TC5514 APL-3 chips from Quest. I hope this chip fixes
it. I couldn't think of any other explanation.

There is only one memory chip, the TC5514.
