In my opinion, there s not much difference in the level of difficulty of installing a HAWK into a MK2 Poly. This is especially true when I redesigned the

Thanks again Blaine for another detailed reply. I think your advice is sound - I should get a Poly 800 that is currently unmodded and start from scratch,

Re: [korgpolyex] question about NRPNs

The NRPN MSB must be equal to global parameter 16. The default value for global parameter 16 is 1 (not zero). So perhaps you need to set NRPN MSB to 1 or

I ve not even touched a M2 before, but it s to my understanding that: AFTER the HAWK mod to a M2.. the only difference between the M1/M2 units is the FX board.
