Hello group. I'm having problems with a poly 61. I know this is a Polysix group but... maybe someone can help me. The problem is that DCO1 produces very low sound when sawtooth wave is selected and barely no sound when one of the other two waves are selected. DCO2 works fine as all the remaining functions. Any sugestions? Thanks in advance! Best regards. José. Portugal

All the opinions will be appreciated!

Hello Andy: Wasn't me. The Poly is from a friend of mine. He bought the kit from a former korg representative in the UK and installed it himself. Best regards.

Hi Jose, So we have one Poly-61 fitted with the Korg MIDI kit at some stage in the UK. You now own this keyboard, it was working OK, but now DCO1 has virtually no output. We'll have to put it out to the group as my knowledge of this instrument is not great. Can you tell me what your level of expertise in electronics is like? You might want to compare the output from the programmable interval timers (IC4/5 and IC13/14) and verify they are counting correctly. You might also want to measure the output from the DCOs starting at the VCF and working backwards. Do you have the KLM-476 or 508 type synth board? If you need a copy of the scheamtic drop me a private message, but I must warn you my copy is not very good.

Thanks Andrew. I have a KLM-508 board. Unfortunately I dont have an oscilloscope at the moment I have spare IC4 and IC13 and can replace them at the board. Ill forward the results. Best regards.
