Hi folks, you might remember me and my battery leakage issue. Well, we still haven't found the cause of the patches not being written to memory. TC5514 seems...
Hello, I recently aquired a polysix. The machine had a few keys which weren't working properly, and despite my best efforts of cleaning out those rubber pads,...
I suggest that you do replace PC-1 as for the tuning problems. With a well functioning P6 there should be no problem getting it in correct scale as long as you...
... That brings me to my previous question, how is the PC1 replacement to be connected??? Please pretend I'm a moron... (not to far) If i remember correctly...
Anyone out there know which type of battery can be used with a Polysix & where to obtain one?? Thanks! www.myspace.com/jazewadeaxiom www.jazewade.com...
Basically unless someone has already done the battery upgrade you've got a decent project in front of you. The battery originally used was a poor design and...
After many years faithful service, my polysix seems to have developed a tuning problem :-( Usually when I first switch it on, and initially hit the keys, the ...
Check the Files section as for how to replace the optocoupler. Do not touch ANY of the trimpots, as once you replace the bad part it should stay in its normal...
Thanks very much for the advice - since that only involves replaceing two components on the boards, even my wretched soldering skills oughta be able to handle...
Let us know if it helps... Had the same exact problem on my Trident and it indeed was the expo coverter. Thanks ;) ... part it ... the ... that's ... the ... ...
Hey everybody. I just got a ploysix and need help figuring out some problems. First, the battery has been replaced and the board cleaned so that is not an...
Hello, I am hoping that someone can explain to me how to properly remove the wire connectors from the boards inside the polysix. They are apparently glued...
... Make use of a good knife, like a box cutter or scalpel. And then carefully cut the glue. At least this worked for other devices I was digging around in. My...
Well, one obvious thing you might have overlooked -- removing the battery wipes the program memory; if you don't program in (or reload) patches, you'll get...
Hello, The polysix was set to manual mode. I'm going to take another shot putting it all back together again later today. Hopefully it was just a loose...
OK, so I put the board back in again, and made sure that all the connections were secure. Everything seems to be in the proper place, but I still can't get any...
Have you tried creating a new sound? From your response to the previous suggestion I'm not sure you understood what they were saying. When you remove the...
I switched it into manual mode, and tried flipping around the knobs, and nothing came out. So, I don't believe that this is the issue. (Unless I am doing...
I loaded all the patches in again, and the same problems are occuring. Just a lot of static sounds from the main output, though no static is coming out of the...
If you don't have a scope, repairs can be difficult. However, first check to see if there's audio output from the "output" test point on the voice board (use...
Fixed! Turns out it was just a stupid mistake. A plug on the voice board wasn't hooked up...I completley missed it! Thankfully, my polysix is now in full...
Heh, I once ended up screaming and shouting because I made my Trident not to work any more. Later I found I had forgotten to plug the power support cable into...
Please explain to me how the Opto thingamajig is supposed to be connected, all it says in the Files section is what resistor to change. It doesn't explain to a...
Well, it took a little while to get hold of a replacement opto-resistor, but I fitted it last night... pretty confident I got it soldered in right, but no joy...
I had this exact same dilemma last night - but careful examination will show you that only 4 of the pins on the old opto component is connected to anything. I...
