HI EVERYoNE!

2002-07-15 by boneyhands

I'm a new member... I've had my Korg poly 800 about 9 years now, I 
love it! I havent had any problems with it until recently...it seems 
like after all of these years, the joystick has finally given out. It 
sends random CC's to the computer every minute or so.. I took the 
keyboard apart, used some deoxit on the connector but that did not 
help. The joystick part actually seems to be a bit loose, so 
everytime i hit the keyboard it wiggles just enough to send a small 
MIDI message. Obviously the Korg poly 800 is a horrible controller 
but its the only external keyboard I have right now, and I imagine 
the joystick is only going to get worse. Do any of you have a dead 
korg poly 800 with a functional joystick that you could sell to me so 
i can replace it? :)

after reading the messages i know there are a few of you out there 
with dead korgs...

ok!

thanks!
