Yes, check out pin 9 of IC1 (NJM2069). That is the linear VCF cutoff control point. Mike

So, is there chance to use another lfo instead of original to control VCF speed manually? Thank you
2010-09-14 by Michael Hawkins
VCF/DCO MG speed is determined by the LFO (or in the HAWK-800 - LFO1 or LFO2). Neither of which can be controlled by a POT because the speed is determined by

Hallo. Is there chance to modificate MG (VCF) frequency (speed) to control it by a pot?I don t think by Hawk 800. Thanx

Or just keep C cell batteries loaded in the poly. Or keep it plugged in all the time. It needs power all the time to hold its memory.

Yes, you need to install a new memory backup battery. Most Poly-800 s have a location in the middle of the main printed circuit board where the battery would
