Hi, I d like to control my poly-800 II with a bcr-2000. Could someone please tell me how to program sysex in the bcr2000 to tweak parameters of the poly 800 II
2009-11-12 by Bobby Orlando
hi! I tried to download some files in the poly 800 II section and it seems there is a lot of dead links. I was looking for sysex data and mod instructions.

OK, there are a couple of possibilities remaining. Did your Poly-800 work just fine before you did the HAWK-800 upgrade? With the power off and disconnected

Panel buttons still play notes, no keys operate.
2009-11-07 by Michael Hawkins
OK, now plug the CN3 back in and then unplug the keyboard connector and tell me if the front panel keys still play notes or if everything works as it should.

Still only the notes above the second from top G# work. It is playing the correct note and the 8th chromatic note below 2 octaves down it. An example is G# 4

OK, as a test, disconnect CN3 from the main board and then let us know if the keyboard works all the way from the bottom key to the top. If the keyboard works,

I have scoured the main board extensively looking for a bridge and have not found one but in my testing realized the joystick is not operating either. Tomorrow

Hi HAWK-800 fans, I am just in the final stages of testing a new firmware update that provides a block flash copy of the patch memory. This will help those

Hi! I had a look into my Poly800. I have the KLM-596-2 version... no battery onboard. I think that your board is also a KLM-596-2 and not a KLM-590-2 - right?
2009-11-05 by Michael Hawkins
KLM - 590 - 2 means you have the second version of the board (there were several although the differences are very small). I don t the version 2 board has the

Hi again, I saw no battery on any kind on any of the boards I did not see any lands for mounting a battery present on the board I perceive as the main board.

Mike, What version of Midi-Ox do you have? In the Configure section of version 7, you can set number of buffers and buffer size, but not delay. -Craig

It is critical to slow down the between buffers delay when using midi-ox. 2 SECONDS is enough. As the owners manual says: Receiving EX-800 or Poly-800 Mk2
