Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Seems like there's a lot of 'work' ;>) involved in entering all the patch chart values in, and then trying to tweak them to get near the original, if possible. There are a few patches that come with the Legacy softsynth that seem relatively close to the original P6 sounds - like the Wurly and some of the string pads, and then there are some that aren't...
It would be nice if there was a convertor that could be used as a starting point to generate values from MIDI'd P6's patch dumps, that then control MIDI CC-learned parameters on the Legacy. There may be issues with linear / non-linear pot tapers, and other 'calibration' mismatches...but it could be a fun project. Just wondering if anyone has attempted such a digital conversion. -Brian
