#Korg poly 800 online mod

It made some nice BoardsOfCanada type drones when programmed correctly. It stayed sitting in my rack for a year gathering dust, then I moved house and left it there. The resonance didn't even work with the buttons as before the mod. In the end the filter cutoff knob worked, but the resonance knob didn't. but take the advice of it being 'easy to mod' with a pinch of salt if you're a bit new to soldering etc. The other 'desoldering' and delicate operations not mentioned on the site were quite difficult for me too, and I may have busted it that way, not sure. The resistor may have had the wrong banding, it was really hard to tell the banding from the site. I can solder reasonably ok but I botched it up somehow.

#Korg poly 800 online mod

Moog Slayer Filter Mod for Korg EX-800 and Poly-800 I tried to do the Moogslayer mod to it (the factory unit having no cutoff/resonance knobs is a complete pain): I bought an EX800 for в‚¬80euros on ebay last year, was in fair condition. out of harms way! But the sounds inside of it are ok and they are about as good as a hundred bucks can get you.Д¬heck these samples, this guy makes the machine sound actually pretty good! controlling a nicer sounding synth that I had off to the side. I used to use it just as a midi controller. and at a hundred bucks, you aren't really worried about dropping it (like I would be with my buddies SH-101!). It's got the straps for guitars which make it instant throwback.

sometimes toy sounds can be pretty cool! I used to run mine through tons of effects and got cool results. It feels like a toy, plays like a toy, and sounds like a toy. Having only one filter shared between all of the sounds is a pretty big setback compared to other synthesizer. Yes, they mod very well and very easily with just an inch of electronic knowledge. All the ones I have owned have cost me 120 or less! I have owned several in fact.

and I can say some bad things about the Poly 800 and some good things. Poly 800 was one of my first, after an Alesis Micron, an Alpha Juno, a broken Juno 106, Broken Polysix, and broken Poly 61 (had a string of broken ones!).
