New picture, and a question.
2005-12-16 by tkrotchko
I did a quick disassemble on my "new" polaris last night and I took a quick picture of the RH side of the motherboard in anticpation of replacing the polypropylene capacitors. That might be a vacation week project if I can get the caps ordered in time. I figured on taking lots of pictures to help me reassemble everything, since I'm going to remove the motherboard, which looks to be a bit of a pain. In the meantime, I thought I'd take a picture of what I did see last night. The panel flips up and the keyboard is removed very easily. I noticed none of the presets are loaded. I see there are sysex banks, .lib files, and on the Chroma site a .wav file which I assume should be loaded to a cassette tape. My dilemna a the moment is (a) I don't really do too much midi stuff, so I'll have to get some cables (b) what program should I use to load the files (c) which files should I use? (d) What would the cassette tape load get me? (e) and assuming it would be worth it, where would I get the DIN plug to 1/8" (guess) jack to use the cassette port? Thanks for any help. --Tom
