RE: Heat and Modulation problems?

2013-09-19 by <agk_achilles2004@yahoo.com>

OK, so now i notice that the LFO problem occurs when i route the LFO to the VCA.

It seems like the LFO freq is the one that passes as audio. My mixer goes all the way to red if i increase the LFO level and you can hear a big hissing sound that comes and goes. Is that normal? One of the patches that came with the unit produces that as it is... patch B5.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys
I just got on my hands a Polysix but it seems to produce a lot of heat on the back side where the KORG logo is located.
Also the LFO (MG) seems to produce a low level noise that shows on my Mixer.
If i turn the MG level up my mixer goes all the way to red and i hear a low hum. i can change the hum speed using MG frequency.
Any ideas? is that normal on a Polysix? Easily fixable? I really like the synth and would like to buy it.
Greetings!

p.s. sorry about my English
