Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Actually, they may need more than cleaning.On my P6, cleaning did not bring the dead keys back.The carbon pills on the rubber dome part of the contactshad lost their conductivity.   The PolySix is prone to this, 
along with some other keyboards.   In my case, the solutionwas to paint the carbon pills with a conductive silver paint.A small kit with the paint and several brushes costs $30 
and is designed for just this task.   I applied two coats.You can find a video by syntegrator showing how to do iton youtube.    
  But try cleaning first with isopropyl.   Maybe you willbe lucky.
