Hi,
The voltage at TP2, called Oct/V CV, which seems to be the input
to the antilog ckt, is constantly switching between 8 values. Six of them
are the same when you go into unison mode, but there are still two other
ones being muxed in. I guess for the factory calibration they must have had
a way to pause the muxing and put out specific DAC values for setting the
trimmers using a DMM. Seems like that code would be in the keyboard
MCU, unless they had a factory test MCU that they used.

Does anyone have access to a complete (!) Trident Mk II service manual?
Posting the procedure for the antilog calibration would help tremendously.
I have the calibration routines for:
Trident (Mk I) -> incorrect and partly implausible
Poly-61 -> will have to check
MonoPoly -> will have to check
Can anyone think of other Korg Polysynths from that era that might use the
same antilog technique? I think this is the list:
Polysix
Poly-61
MonoPoly
Trident
Trident Mk II
It would seem odd to me that all of them have an antilog calibration
routine except the Polysix. The Polysix also has a test point at the same
circuit position...
