Re: [PolySix] Modwheel VCO VCF VCA Issue

2012-05-17 by klosmon

From your description, everything is working correctly.
The mod wheel on the Polysix is hardwired to the VCO -- it does not 
affect anything else.
The controls on the front panel for modulation to the VCO/VCF/VCA are 
part of the patch programming, and are totally independent of the 
wheel.  This is unlike other synths, but it's the way the Polysix was 
designed.
(this info is contained in the user manual, available several places for 
free download).

Sounds like your synth is working the way it was designed.
