Polysix Midi Project

2011-11-04 by bigpeeet@rocketmail.com

Hi all,
Been lurking around here for a while; first post so here goes! 

I'm a long time p6 owner, but am new to the idea of midi on it. My setup needs some pretty spec'd up midi, so I recently bought Johannes' P6M card as a kit, since this gave the most features. Now I'm not the most practised kit guy around, and although I've done some synth modding in the past, am a total newbie on building from (almost) scratch.

I'm wondering whether anyone here is interested in building it for me to install, or whether anyone has built one before and can shed some light on building stories, tips and how to troubleshoot it (I get cold sweat when I imagine spending however many hours building, then getting nothing when I plug it in).

Also, does anyone have one of these installed? I'm a bit unsure whether it will allow me to send realtime contoller changes to the knobs and switches, or whether the best I can hope for is librarian edit and dumping with a few cc's to pitch bend and cutoff etc.

Any stories and advice are much appreciated!
