Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

It is all down to calibration, me thinks.
The sound of the Polysix can be changed quite a lot depending on how  
you calibrate the synth. Stick to the factory standard and you get one  
sound - press the VCAs and you get another sound.
It is probably some differences between the synths, though.
But still: if they sound close it is all down to calibration, me thinks.
