Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

What does it happen if I take away and don't change my leakeged
battery? Will I lose all factory memories? or only user presets?
thanks

Factory & user presets are held in the same memory, backed up by the same
battery -- so you will lose the ability to save any presets.
Question: does the synth still work, even thought the battery leaked?

Correct.

You are quite fortunate -- usually, the battery leak can cause major problems.

explain: the memory buttons will give the same sound?

Yes, you loose them. You need a Korg Data Casette with factory presets
and reload them into the Memory (i remember a Website which has them as
a .wav-File). But that does -not- mean that the Synth doesn´t work anymore.

If you have a Korg Poly-800 you won´t hear any sound as long the factory
presets are re-loaded by Casette (which is a -must- at the Poly-800
Model 1, he has no Battery, so if you turn the power off, he will lost
all User and Factory Patches).

When you turn off your Polysix for a short time, e.g. 5 minutes, the
patches probably will remain in memory. If it is powered off longer,
e.g. over night, all patches are lost. When you turn on the instrument
there will be random patches, all 32 locations different. Maybe there
will be some time a useful patch among these, but mainly there will
be junk.
