Please check the both IC's too. If one of these are damaged, you get the same strange effects. As I started with repairing my polysix I had the same strange...
Hi all, many thanks for your tips. Today I got my spare parts from Korg: 6 EUR for the part, 9 EUR for shipping. @ José: Good idea to send it directly to me,...

Yeah, so, I started getting signs I needed to dive back into the 367 and do some follow-up work. I replaced IC30 with another 74LS08 and did a few things...

For the love of Pete. The distortion is still there. FWIW, it actually sounds more like something osciallating at a high frequency. I went through and...
That sounds like what my P6 is doing too - like the mod wheel is fully on. Everything is 'bubbling'. I have found that the PWM width control seems to have the...

Yeah, it sounds more like the or *a* LFO gone haywire, but at a frequency where it sounds more like distortion. The only other conclusion I can come to is that...
if you trigger the lfo to frequency oscillation and adjust the lfo frequency to maximum, you will get also very heavy distorted sounds. and that sounds like...
Hi, this is my my first post to this group. I bought a Polysix recently realizing they're very old. Actually played guitar mainly in the 80's but there was...

Hi brainslayer, Thanks for the quick reply. Just to make sure I understand you correctly, If it were the chip itself I would hear it only in poly and not...
there are six filter chips on the board. 1 for each voice. if you press one note it would only use 1 of them. if you release the note and pressing another key,...
I'll pull the cover and have a look. So if one filter was bad, the LED and it's corresponding voice wouldn't work? Thanks for your extreme patience with a ...
No no... basically, they are saying that the filter probably isn't bad. There are 6 discrete filters, one for each voice. If when you play 6 notes in a row...
OK-that makes things a bit more clear. I didn't think it would be the filters because I can reproduce all of the original presets (a wide range of sounds and ...
the led only indicates that the voice is playing. but not if some error is inside. if one of the led isnt working, a voice is damaged. thats all. if the...

Hi, You should check the output voltage on the wiper contact of the filter cutoff potentiometer. It should read +5V at maximum and -5V at minimum rotation....
Master Crow, Thank you for responding and please forgive my ignorance. I can do this if it's just a matter of checking the voltage across the pot leads with a ...
So, really, anyone with experience please jump right in and give some insight because I'm near my wit's end. It makes me very nervous to remove the processor...
So, I jumped all of the traces from IC30 as well, so that makes ICs 30 and 31 as well as R17 completely jumped. I have jumps from several traces around where...
