I forgot, you also obviously have to do the diode mod before putting in a non rechargable battery. Details are on the net but you probably have them already. ...
You can snip the battery out no problem. You just won't have on board patch storage when the synth is turned off for a while. Solder in any flat CR type...
Hello, I've just come across a sweat deal on a Polysix. It's in great shape, has the original box, pedals everything. It came from a storage unit auction...
Hi Milan, Can you tell us if the MG section of your Polysix is in full working order? Particularly the modulation routing switch (VCA, VCF, VCO)? This may have...
Hello fellow Polysix lovers, I am writing this in need of your help once again. Few weeks ago my P6 started acting funny, it was detuned down for a whole...
Interesting.  I saw this reciently thought it might be useful in miding polysix but it looks like it is not there yet.  thanks  --john ... From: Paul...
Hi Andy, unfortunately, I have no Oscilloscope. Yesterday I have developed the blue Varta battery and have soldered a substitute. That took me 5 minutes. I am...
Mack, Do you own or can you lay your hands on a logic probe or oscilloscope? You will find your life so much easier of you have such a thing to hand. If you ...
I had to replace IC 25 and IC 23 to get my polsyix working. Erratic light movement, noise on outputs, erratic control response. Turned out there were some bad...

Firstly, I got my polysix off craigslist in its current, broken state, with little history about use or previous damage. The problems from the get go are:...
Thanks for the tip on this, I checked all the related traces from D00-D07, and they check out fine. The CPU visually appears to be ok, and I have checked all...
Hi Paul, I watched your vid and it seems like your ADSR Env. is working properly. If you want the patch to sound immediately upon pressing a key, you want the...
Hi Oliver, Do you have or know someone who owns an oscilloscope? I have just downloaded your files and listened to them. As an example I picked the 'cold' file...
Hi! Yes, my Polysix has the original blue Varta Ni-Cad battery. I will change it next weekend. I recorded some different programs. You find the file "warming...
Hi, Might I suggest, before you do anything else, check the continuity of the tracks that form data bus D00-D07. Pay particular attention to the area around...
Did you try putting it in manual mode and tweaking the controls? (I'd assume yes of course after such a time). Can you hear any of the effects coming out of...
I have been working off and on at fixing my battery issue for the past few months...replacing parts etc. I have not been able to get ANY sound from the poly...
Hi! If your Polysix still has the original big blue Varta Ni-Cad battery on the main processor board, it NEEDS to be changed, ASAP. Those batteries are Time...
Oliver, When you say it 'sounds bad' what do you mean? Out of tune, dysfunctional, distorted, etc? It is common for a 'board of this vintage to take around 30 ...
Thanks for the quick replies! After reading the manual I got more insight as to how tweaking works for this synth. I found out that while tweaking knobs it...
First open it up and check for battery leakage. ... From: oseite To: PolySix@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2009 4:30 AM Subject: [PolySix]...
