Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Hi!

I have four questions about replacing PC1:

1: Is this the correct replacement for PC1?:

2: Which should I buy -the single or dual?

3: Stupid question: People talk about replacing  the R93 to a "1k2
ohm" resistor -is this the same as a "1.2 k ohm"?

4: Will a 1/8W carbon resistor do?

Thanks in advance,

Yes, it's the universal standard.  Some areas use 1.2 some use 1,2
etc.. so.. to make it easy, you put the modifier where the decimal
goes.

I would guess so.  I don't know how critical it is, but you might want
to look for a 1% resistor, or measure them until you find one that is
as close as possible to your desired value.  I always use 1/4W carbons
because I buy them in bulk for $.01 each.

Thanks.

I'll buy the resistor at the local store.

I've ordered the Vactec VTL5C3 from Smallbear.
