Hi all
Looks like a great forum, so I thought I might ask if anyone knows where to get a main board or a processor for the Poly 800 mill?
I have one that someone has butchered and would love to get it going again for those same great pads and bass lines
I've tried all the usual outlets, Syntaur, etc, with no luck!

Sometimes the PCBs (or a 'for parts' synth from which you could get it) show up on Ebay.

Another idea: Get the layout from the service manual and have a new PCB manufactured. Shouldn't be too expensive - they didn't use 6 layer PCBs when the Poly-800 was developed

.

However, it might be advisable to ask permission from Korg to do so (copyright infringement, y'know...

).
