Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Ok I messed up... while trying to find out which one of my 6 SSM-2056
chips was not working ( every 6th note would not play) by switching
chips around as directed in earlier posts on this site ,I
inadvertantly placed one in backward, making the reverse contact in
the Voice# 0 socket,,,, so I blow both 1 amp fuses...got them replaced
and now I get blurry,quiet,less defined sounds in all patches. Changing
patch # does change the tone, but the sounds are bad and
indistinct.Totally NOT NORMAL. Better on 'unison', but still blank
notes on 'poly' probably from the bad ssm-2056... yet all notes play
on unison. the problem is the degraded tone quality...any ideas of what
might have blown with one reversed ssm-2056 other than the fuses?
