Mods complete (for now, anyway)

2012-11-23 by AARON

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally did it.  Or "them," to be more accurate.  Within the last couple of weeks, I've done mods to two of my Poly-800s: the Moog Slayer, 12/24 dB, FM-800, and battery backup on one machine, and just the Moog Slayer on the other.  

Obviously, these mods really open up the sound-making capabilities of these machines.  At first, I didn't understand what the FM-800 was capable of until I did some reading.  Then, once I figured it out, I was blown away with what it can do, and really glad I did it.

The only other thing I'm thinking about doing is putting a knob on the front panel to control the noise level (parameter 33).  Has anyone done it?
