Hi Again! Here s the follow-up to my previous message on my MIDI-to-Trigger converter.. In this new demo, I ve got my Polysix and Mono/Poly arpeggiators (plus

Thanks Terje, I thought so, just wanted to make sure so as not to break anything. I am planning of giving the panel s black segments a re-work, glossy black

Does anyone know a good way to remove the Polysix metal cover/front panel so as to clean it up and paint it? It is hinging on two small metal rods at the ends

Hi All, I m a big fan of Arpeggiators. Unfortunately, on these old pre-MIDI Korgs, you can t easily keep the arpeggiator in-sync with MIDI devices such as

All pots working, tried tuning but it s not yet satisfactory. Love the fat SSM sound, even in Poly and not Unison mode. Here it is with some custom patches:

Hey, thanks for the information - this totally solved the problem. In my case the trace was corroded between CN06-2 to C43 in such a way that was not visible

Now I know how difficult tuning a polyphonic analog synth can be! It looks like I hit the rightmost edge of voice tuning pots every time I try it. my P1501

Nobody ever said every problem is an IC problem.

check the output switch on the frontpanel. open that up and clean it...had the same issue with really low output. after cleaning the switch everything worked

Cleaned up the whole of the key contacts and the front panel switches tonight but it sounds like my Polysix Out is failing: I get barely any sound out of it.

Hi, Looks like just one signal comes from the front panel to the KLM367 for both of these signals. It is called MOD. Comes in on CN06-2. You

no, sorry typed that a little fast. the capacitors i installed are 10 picofarad.
2014-01-29 by Ingo Debus
... Did you really install 10 uF (microfarads) caps? As I understand it, C22/23 on the KLM-367 board should be 10 pF (picofarads) (or 22 pF for C23). You re

I did fix the PCB errors. and I have now installed the two 10uf caps for the crystal oscillator, with no difference. I actually made two klm367 clone boards

Have you done the mod on Jed s site, a res to take care of as well as a cap to replace if necessary?

Glad you got the DAC cal fixed. I did a complete cal of my Polysix recently. It was a little tricky in spots. I think it would be tough without an

Totally agree, no easy answer for small shipments. Yash

I think the answer is that there is no easy answer. As an individual, very low volume shipper I can t get a good rate from FedEx, UPS, or DHL. USPS is always

Thanks a lot Terje. Looks like it s not a trivial mod, which is expected for a Polyphonic analog.

Hi Yash, ... Most of the mods I found here: http://www.acc.umu.se/~amber/Poly6/ The instructions regarding the VCO-to-VCF mod is rather thin:

Yo Yeah, I heard you can do i similar mod with the original PSU, without the Kiwisix PSU upgrade. Maybe I will give this a shot. Now I m happy using noise

A split like what the Angel City mod did to the Korg DW-8000 would be awesome. The thing is: you would want to have one timbre for the bass and a different one

Hi, nice write-up. You could also implement a 2-voice mode, where 3 voices are layered and detuned. (tribble osc) I am actually sitting in front of a Polysix

One of the things that you need to check is not only continuity from A to B, but also to make sure there is not any continuity to anyplace else. Some of the
