Guys, me and my cousin Critterbug, his son Jimmy or Junebug, and his woman Fanny circuit bent mine, and we've been playin around with my poly. Let me just...
Yes, would you believe it but Dallas has obsoleted the digital potentiometer chip that is used in the AtomaHawk kit. They don't have a replacement either. So...
Hi group, it's been a while, I have a problem with my Poly. After not using for a couple of months or so, I found out it developed a very weird tune-pitch bend...
That really sucks. What are the specs on that piece? Perhaps it can be sourced from another manufacturer... On Jun 11, 2010, at 8:58 PM, "korgpolyex800"...
What's the digital pot used for? I've never really seen them used as anything other than programmable trimmers. I'm sure there's something else you could...
... I don't really have web access at the moment so I can't look to see if the circuit for the Atomahawk mod is in the Files section. What does the digital...
Hi! Not a pin exchangeable part but should be functional compatible (also +/- 5V range, 128 steps and similar interface) and non volatile as an addon: ...
But the RS-Components (Austria) webpage tells me that they still have 9 package unit on store (but don't tell you how big one package unit is...). I could...
I won't be doing any redesign of the AtomaHawk. So these are all out of the question. The digital pot controls FM-800 modulation. Very important to the...
Well I'm definitely buying one. I've been meaning to since the day it came out but things kept coming up to steer my cash in other directions. But this...
hi I've been making noise and music since 2000. I have a cd and several free mp3 releases. You'll be welcome at www.gustavojobim.com. So today I finally began...
OK, I finally got a chance to put together one of the two boards for the 1RU kit. The keypad board works great. No problems at all. All buttons worked. Now...
Hi there, Im new to Logic but at some point might try to to make an environment to fully control the Poly800Mk2 so it works nearly like a plugin........ Not...
Hello Poly fans, me again, trying to revive my post. Any suggestion from all you gurus regarding the problem exhibited by my Poly? I hope it is not such a...
I would start by checking that all of the cables that go from the tuning board and the joystick board are all plugged in and working correctly. I would also...
Without having seen the video: Both the Master Tune and the pitch bend go through the KLM601/KLM-601a (I recently tried to figure out what was wrong with one...
... Not only that, there isn't a per-patch sysex function either. You can only dump the full memory from and to the synth. And you have to re- select the...
Thanks Malte and Mike for your help! The ground cable (black) that goes to the 601a was indeed loose. I resoldered it and presto! works like a charm again. ...
Hey guys! I bought a used MK1 a couple of years back. It worked great, but every once in a while would lose the factory presets when unplugged for an hour or...
Since you said "batterys" I'm assuming you are talking about C cells and haven't got a lithium cell installed for the memory. The only time I've seen this...
hey chaps. i recently bought this poly-800 mk1 ( my 3rd!) and it arrived with a non working SEQ Speed slider, sliding it up and down makes no difference to...
Thanks for the speedy response! Actually figured out that it wasnt taking the sysx dump because the program enable switch wasnt engaged. Didnt realize that had...
Hi! I have been browsing around this mailinglist but haven't found a solution to my problem (but some help to get this far!). However, I think it is the right...
... The /WR pin is active low, so it's pulled to around the voltage you say to tell the chip to look at what's on the data bus. This pulse lasts for about a...
Maybe not relevant, but are you sure it's not the software problem before checking the hardware? Isn't there a garbage in RAM? I would start with loading the...
Thanks for the super fast replies! I have tried to program a basic patch but since the synth is new to me I am not 100% I made it correct (just 99%). I have...
If the batteries die out then the whole operation data is erased. This could be the case with you. Reloading the Data originally was done by a cassette...
