Re: [PolySix] RE: Polysix tuning difficulties.

And finally:

I've tuned the Polysix (so far just preliminary). There still is some small
room for improvement but except for the lowest 16' octave I have a pitch
deviation better than the one shown in the service manual. Some notes have
a 1 to 2 cent deviation but most are spot on. The lowest notes in the
lowest octave have currently a deviation of about 7 cent.

I had to use VR15 a lot though which means that probably the basic offset
was not so good. The whole antilog circuit calibration could probably be
shifted a bit upwards and then compensated for again with VR15. This could
possibly bring VR2 away from its end position.
