Korg Poly800/EX800 Users

Hello,

I made a basic Max for Live patch to control program change and the DCO/VCF mod parameters.

I think it's kind of not well known that these can actually be automated in realtime via MIDI.

I have an EX-800 but according to a service manual for the 800 II it receives the same 2 midi CC messages so I'm assuming it will work.

Whenever I finally receive my hawk-800 I hope to do a full editor.

Device can be found here

Yes, I will be shipping out kits this week.

When you say you rebuilt the joystick. What did you use for the joystick pot assembly?

I have developed a new PCB that puts a PS2 joystick where the Poly one used to be. I haven't ordered any boards yet to see how well it works. Mostly, because I've been trying to find a slightly better quality joystick movement. The attraction to the PS2 type is that they're so darn cheap.

Say Mike, does this mean the HAWK-kits are on their ways soon?
By the way - I've made a 3D joystick knob replacement model for my Poly800 and have installed it. It needed a bit of tweaking but overall it looks pretty good.

I'd like one of those knobs!  Can I order one from shapeways?

Does this mean Mike is sold out of the repro knobs on the Hawk 800 site?

Yes, I sold out of the knobs and the paypal button is no longer on the HAWK800 web site - at least a year ago.

But I created a brand new joystick PCB that takes a PS2 joystick assembly instead. I haven't ordered any boards yet to test it out. But I will some time this year.

Great thanks Mike. Just enough time to finish my Bass Station II editor and then I'll get cracking on the Hawk.

If you hadnt seen it, you might want to try this editor.Download, unzip and check the README doc.

HAWK800-GUIv2.29.zip - Google Drive

That's a Standalone that should run in XP on, 32bit

This is a beta ddl file for VST DAWs
