Jusuf,

You can use PayPal to pay with most credit cards. When you use PayPal, it is going to ask you for all the address information that I need, it will handle the exchange rate as well. If you don't have a credit card then I'll have to think about how to do this. Maybe I could just have you wire the money into an account, the problem with that is that wiring money can be expensive.

The sync mode for two Poly's works across MIDI. I think sync mode is fantastic, but that's just my opinion. First of all, you can get 8 or 16 note polyphony. Second, when you do a patch change on the "master" it can send a patch sysex dump to your "slave" so that they play the same patches. You have to be careful though because you overwrite your patches on the "slave" Poly.

Mike.

Hi,
I would like to buy one (of the first) as well. So, I should to start to
deal with PayPal, how it works...,

I have 2 Poly800 MK1 - do you recommend to equip both with your pack ? I
red something about linking 2 Polys together, but does it work "just" via
MIDI interface, or did you discover/develope some kind of "system bus
interface" ?

What about adres and other info ?
