Hi there.
The only things i can add to your post are, 1) the Polysix pitch bend
wheel never did have springs (at least, mine didn't) so I just took an
elastic band and wrapped it around the wheel. This works suprisingly
well. And, 2) my Polysix also suffered from the two-LEDs-on problem,
and I was advised that it is a possible bad programmer IC. So I was
forced to cannibalize my machine, and that's the end of that era. I'm
trying to use what boards remain to build other units, which is an
evolving process. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
