Re: [PolySix] Re: Selling my P6

Hi,


Yes, I still have it. I am located in St. Louis, MO. I just got it back from the shop. It had the dreaded battery leak issue and required extensive re doing of the traces on the board by a reputable local tech. Still is unplayable because the tuning is so far off.... I was able to "successfully" load factory patches from the wav files that are floating around the net but... it still does not sound right because of the tuning issue. I get the feeling the solution is more involved than just calibrating the tuning because it seems like entire banks of sounds sound similar. Really I was thinking that if the machine was totally healthy, after loading in factory sounds, they should sound much more different from one another....  electric piano, strings, bass.... etc. But I am not getting any of these "regular" sounds at all. Any ideas?  I might just post all of this to group to see if folks have any ideas...Thanks!


Jack
