Hello, does anyone know if I can still buy the MIDI retrofit kit that Johannes Hausensteiner created somewhere?
Thanks,

It looks like all the links to his original site are no longer working. I have one of his boards I purchased several years ago (photo of the board can be found here: --http://matrixsynth.blogspot.com/2007/02/korg-polysix-midi.html) it's the populated board, ROMs, and two jumpers to connect to the Polysix CPU board. There are several modifications required to the existing P6 circuitry, along with some connecting cables you'll have to either buy or build. I've never gotten around to trying to install this board, and I probably never will; if you want to buy it, let me know. I did manage to download all the installation & user info from his site; still have it. ~GMM analogsynthservice.com Marcel Querin wrote: > > > Hello, does anyone know if I can still buy the MIDI retrofit kit that > Johannes Hausensteiner created somewhere? > > Thanks, > > Marcel Querin > Montréal, Canada > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I had tried to contact him several times for a board as well. Pretty sure he's moved on. If Marcel doesn't take up this offer, I would be interested. I'm only too happy to take to a synth with a soldering iron. Cheers, Oli klosmon wrote:

I can't speak to the Hausensteiner kit, but I have installed the kit from the Czech company that sells one and it's great. Installed very easily and works like a charm. Shipping to North America was no problem either. hth, Erick

Thanks Erick, which Czech company (and board model) is that? Marcel (I bought my Polysix in 1982 with my student loan) --- In PolySix@yahoogroups.com, Sonic Amigos Support <sasupport@...> wrote:

Thanks, which board are you referring to? If this is the one from Johannes, yes I am interested. Please contact me. :) Marcel Querin marcel_querin'a'yahoo.ca 1-514-292-1791 --- In PolySix@yahoogroups.com, klosmon <klosmon@...> wrote:

Ok, this is another MIDI in only board. Will consider. Thanks.

Hi Marcel, did you end up buying the interface from Klosmon? If not, I would be only too keen to pick it up. Cheers, Oli marcel_querin wrote:

The transaction is taking place. We are ironing out the details through email. I'll let you know if anything changes. Marcel --- In PolySix@yahoogroups.com, Oliver Fairhall <o.fairhall@...> wrote:
