WOW! I like the sound of that. So how about this, we call my mod the Korg Poly 800 Hawk. And if the Hawk also has the Moog Slayer mod then we call it the Korg

Well... it s kinda hard to come to terms with this I guess... no doubts your name or initials should be credited! I was suggesting your initials and the Rev.

Hi Poly fans, More quick advancements are being made. Even last night, I spent about an hour writing the code to add a MIDI controller to turn portamento on

Hi Poly fans, I am considering bidding on a Poly 800 MK2 so that I can prepare a Hawkins modification kit that will work specifically with the MK2. But before

What about pressed-order arp? It would be nice to have an intelligent arp that takes into account a time signature setting (4/4 for instance) and repeats some

I ll work with the Kawai given that the cyclone manual is 86 pages worth - yikes. But longer term, the arp could be quite complex and programmable via sysex

Russ, The stepping is only noticeable on the high frequency end. So while the Poly 800 does great basses the portamento in the low range sounds perfect

Russ, You ve summed it up very nicely. But let me put your mind at ease on one point. The arpeggiator is going to be very easy to code into the Poly. So it
2007-12-29 by Russ
Just my own two cents. I use the 800 because of its quirky sound possibilities, combined with its value and plentifulness. Meaning I dont feel bad if I mod it

In order to get sync mode working with MIDI in (such as from your computer sequencer), I figured it would be useful to have MIDI soft thru available. That way,
