Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Hi Milan,

 

If the VCO has stopped working then it is no wonder there are problems with
the tuning and mod wheel! Just remind me, were you the person who was having
problems with the battery running flat on the '367 after it was repaired? I
really think the guy who repaired this should really take a second look at
it for you. If you want to have a go yourself take a look at the switching
action at IC29 pin 11 and pin 13 of the comparator IC3. But I would address
these issues before you start digging in the far left-hand corner of your
P6!

 

Cheers,

Andy

Hi Andy,

ok so I tested the MG section. It works when put to VCF and VCO, but when
it's on VCO it has no effect whatsoever.
