Re: Why would a single voice go out of tune?

2004-06-19 by toorglick

I think I have a later revision board IIRC.  I think my issues may be 
separate.  It seems that after the PolySix has had time to "warm up" 
the sixth voice doesn't go sharp.  I've been intending to get inside 
of her again and maybe modifiy the key contacts so they fire better, 
so perhaps I'll do that sooner than later.  It's been rather humid in 
my neck of the woods lately, so maybe that has something to do with 
it, too.

If I discover anything, I'll be sure to post it here.
