EX800 service manual - wow!

EX800 service manual - wow!

2007-11-12 by korgpolyex800

This week, I managed to pick up an EX800 service manual in mint
condition for $7.50.

It just arrived and it has so much excellent information. I will scan
the pages and make them available as soon as I can.

It has the precise definition of the original sysex dump. Including
the sequencer data format and patch format. It has perfect schematics
for the EX800 (virtually identical to the Poly).

Amazing how the small purchases can often be the most enjoyable.

Mike.

Fran,

thanks for working with me on the ebay bidding. I assure you, as soon
as I get my hands on a suitable scanner, I will post the whole Ex800
service manual on this site.

Cheers,

Mike.
