Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

It is not normal that it takes 20 miuntes to tune up. Usually it
takes about 10sec to tune and then it is quite stable.
Check the following: hold a key down when switching power on. The
generated note should change quite a lot until it stabilizes after
a few secs.
Are all six voice affected? Is the effect related to the MG setting
(VCA/VCF/VCO)? Is it related to PWM setting?
