Couldn't you post the link to the schematics nad stuff here? I would very much like to do the same thing... I did that to my Poly800 and always wondered if there was a way to mod the Poly61...
thanks. Schematics are available. if you go to my webpage, you can get my email address and I can send them to you.
I had planned to do volume controls for each dco, as well as each harmonic of dco2 - it would have been pretty straightforward but you'd have to do a bit of circuit design and do it for all 6 voices, which was more desoldering and thinking than I wanted to do at that point!
the parts for the mods are all really inexpensive: Mouser 16mm pots, SPDT and 3PDT toggle switches and the knobs from Allelectronics. that's it - all the sound circuitry is in there waiting to be modified.
I will be posting the schematics with the modifications to my cheapy website within a few days. stay tuned!
where can i get the schematics for this?

Awesome set of mods. I modified a 'broken' Korg Poly-800 myself. The filter is fantastic.

Oh by the way - what is your website? I have a p-61 that I am currently messing around with. I would love to check out your shematic if I could?

I'm getting one for free from someone, but he tells me all the keys don't work, it can only be triggered by midi. Any thoughts of how to fix that?

Nice! Can't wait to see the schematics. How difficult would it be to do volume controls for each DCO and maybe have some sort of AM effect for DCO1 ?

@rolandsh1000 Very Sweet. I am excited to see your schematics.

wow, i think that has at least as much control as my old polysix did, if not more.
