Greetings folks. My first post to this marvelous list and I'm hoping for a bit of info. I've just bought a Polysix, have opened it up, the battery has already...
I have exactly the same problem. Changing the two 74LS08, the 5514 RAM (Replacement:2114) and the D/A-Converter below the RAM doesn´t help. I strongly believe...
Hi, i strongly believe that on my KLM-367 the _Data_ Line from Connector CN1 is defect and if i do a Traceroute from Pin2 DATA i see that he goes diretly to...
Thanks but i believe you can forget my Boards, they are -really- destroyed. But what i found out afterwards, are those A,B and C lines of CN11 on the KLM-369...
Hello All The problem probably lies in damaged tracks or pads on the PCB. I have fixed 3 P6's and all had this problem . Some were worse than others, but all...
Not wanting for you to get too downhearted but it is possible to come up against a board so badly damaged that you cannot realistically repair it. I have one...
... I have a 50% artworked KLM-367 replacement layout in my PCB CAD, but I stopped to consider a dilemma: make the board a direct clone of the original KLM-367...
Humm.... i´ve also think about to make a replacement Board but why doing it 1:1? I mean, just use the an ATMEL AVR 8515, he has 32 I/o-Lines, two internal...
Hi there, I have already (partly) done this based on the work of Ricard Wolf from Sweden and added MIDI capabilities to the Polysix. I can tell you that this a...
In order to get a "Fisarmonica" sound ,I have programmed this initial patch on my Polysix: VCO: Octave=8 Waveform=PW Pw=0 to 6 Sub Osc=1oct VCF: Cutoff=7 ...

Hi, After bringing my dead Polysix back to life (Battery leakage, faulty SSM 2056's) I decided to give him a completely new calibration. There are 2 points in...
Hi, 1) Adjust the RESONANCE knob for a 8.000V reading on the DVM. When trying to accomplish this you will notice that there are discrete steps in the value....
Johannes, Thanks for your detailed explantion. I initialy adjusted the RESONANCE knob for 8V, unfortunately my max. resonance frequency is about 16KHz in step...
Sorry, I had a typo in my original question, I am still wondering what to adjust to get 0V at CN05-7 (_not_ the 8V on CN05-11) If I adjust VCF CUTOFF to 0V, my...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2503998943&category=29552 just wondering if the "old crow" was getting any money off of this auction, as the...
... I'm certainly not getting any money...but I don't care as it is good exposure for leading other polysix owners in to noticing and repairing their boards. ...
Hi there, I have owned a Polysix for about 8 years now. One thing I've always wondered about is this: Generally, when I switch the Polysix on, all the LEDs on...
Hi, This is - if it takes one or two seconds - normal behaviour. During power-on reset, when the microcontroller is not in normal work. But this should not...
... That is the "power on reset" timer resetting the patch manager (KLM-367) microcontroller. It shouldn't, however, take a minute for it to come out of...
Eeek! I got my PS6 in 1995..... that was 8 years ago.... ....so I guess even if the previous owner replaced the NiCd battery, it could be due a new one now...
when I got my p6, it had the original battery replaced with another nicad, but I replaced it with a li-ion anyhow. I also found some bad traces that the...
Oh don't worry, I always have my patches backed up! :-) (Tip for this, if it's never occured to you before - I do this with all my old synths that have a...
Hi all, I recently bought a malfunctioning Polysix and after having a look inside I noticed the battery had already been removed and there was some minor...
Good call! I think we forget that sometime it can be the little obvious things that cause 'malfunctions'. Sounds like you got yourself a bargain there then:) ...
Greetings to all. My name is Jim and I'm new to this group. First, I want to thank everyone whose info and replies I have been reading here in Polysix land....
Hi, i´m sure that you will not find easy a 5114 RAM (if, then to a horrible price), just take the 2114, it´s the same (1K*4) The 5114 was produced by...
... Go to http://www.jameco.com/ Search for item# 43238 (HM6514 1K x 4 CMOS static RAM) That is what I use for repairs. It is equivalent to the TC5514 and the...
