Ansonsten habe ich nicht viel plan von dem gerät .Es scheint aber zumindest teilweise zu funktionieren .ich habe es an einen gitarrenverstärker angeschlossen und es kamen töne heraus. Allerdings nur leise und mit nebengräuschen , zwei tasten gehen nicht. die poties krachen teilweise ein wenig. Das blaue tastenfeld in der mitte geht (man kann klänge auswählen.).

Alles in allem gehe ich davon aus ,das das gerät überholt werden muß und verkaufe es ausdrücklich als eingeschränkt funktionsfähig.” Link

This one functionally is top notch and functioning absolutely perfectly. It has been recently overhauled and serviced by a top U.K service engineer.

This is the model 203a version and NOT the 280. So this is called the synthesiser. It has keyboard written on it. The reason I believe to be the case is that Moog named this the Polymoog keyboard when it was built pre-1978. They then launched the model 280 post 1978 which became the keyboard. This version was then renamed the synthesiser.

To be absolutely fair, some people and purists prefer the newer keyboard model 280 version because of its abilities to replicate the famous Garry Newman sound but this model 203a selling here isn’t a million miles away from replicating the same sound, it just isn’t quite as easy to do so.

Everything you need to know about this synth if you aren’t sure about it should be found on vintagesynth.

Cosmetically, to be absolutely honest, this is not fantastic. Its ok, you know pretty good for its age kind of stuff but it would be very wrong to suggest it was excellent or mint, it is good, probably not even very good, just good or maybe fair. I hope I have been reasonable in spelling this out.” Link

THIS IS A GOOD CHOICE OF A POLYMOOG SYNTH TO RESTORE AS VIRTUALLY ALL THE INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL COMPONENTS (EXCEPT FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED) ARE PRESENT AND HAVE NEVER BEEN ALTERED IN ANY WAY. THIS IS A GREAT POLYMOOG SYNTHESIZER FOR A RESTORATION PROJECT AS IT IS IN GREAT PHYISCAL SHAPE. THIS POLYMOOG DOES NOT POWER UP!!! THEREFORE THIS SYNTH IS OBVIOUSLY BEING SOLD “AS IS”. SO YOU WILL HAVE TO REPAIR IT IN ORDER TO USE IT. FIX IT OR USE IT FOR PARTS FOR THE POLYMOOG YOU ALREADY HAVE (PARTS FOR THE POLYMOOG ARE SCARCE AND VERY…VERY… EXPENSIVE AS IT IS GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND OEM PARTS. ALL OF THE EXTERNAL BUTTONS, KEYS, KNOBS, SLIDERS, SWITCHES, TABS, INTERNAL BOARDS, CHIPS, WIRING AND ALL OTHER PARTS ARE PRESENT AS NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THIS UNIT. ALL 71 KEYS ARE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE AND DO NOT STICK. THE CHASIS OF THE UNIT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS WELL AS THERE ARE NO CRACKS. JUST A FEW MINOR SCUFFS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SYNTH. THAT’S IT!!! THE UNIT DOES NOT POWER UP!!! THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE THE POWER TRANSFORMER IS NO GOOD AND WILL NEED TO REPLACED. I HAVE SEEN THEM GO FOR FROM $50 to $100. The part numbers for the power transformer are as follows:

The Prior Moog Part # was 43-160

The Most Recent Moog Part # is 954-041170-001

Another possible cause may be a faulty power supply circuit board. This is even more of a common problem with Polymoog’s from what I understand.” Link

Dieser Polymoog ist optisch in Zustand 2. Es gibt einige wenige Kratzer und er könnte mal ein Wischtuch gebrauchen.

Technisch hat er zur Zeit Probleme mit den Tastenkontakten. Es gibt teilweise Doppeltrigger und Nebengeräusche. Ich wollte die Tastenkontakte immer mal reinigen. Aber ich habe nie die Zeit dazu gefunden.

Ansonsten sind die Funktionen alle gegeben. Die Tastatur spielt sich hervorragend und ist nicht ausgeleiert.

Diesen Moog möchte ich eigentlich nicht versenden. Weil ich aber aus eigener Erfahrung weiß, dass man manchmal trotzdem bieten möchte, auch wenn man weiter weg wohnt, kann ich ihn sehr sicher verpacken und mit einem Sonderversand auf den Weg schicken. Die Kosten schätze ich auf 50-80 Euro. Aber ihr könnt gerne einen Versand vorschlagen bzw. organisieren.

Ich kann auch anbieten, den Synthesizer nach Bonn, Aachen, Düsseldorf oder Frankfurt a.M. zu liefern, wenn wir einen Termin vereinbaren.

Das Case gehört übrigens nicht zur Auktion. Das möchte ich gerne für meinen verbleibenden Polymoog behalten.

Noch ein paar Infos zum Polymoog findet ihr auf unserer Website. Einfach mal unter „Tastronauten“ googeln. Dann im Menü „Tasten“ anklicken und links den „Polymoog“ Button auswählen.

Viel Spaß beim Bieten und vor allem beim Spielen.” Link

This one is of the latest generation of Polymoogs, serial number 3795. It actually bears the name Polymoog Synthesizer on the front (instead of Polymoog Keyboard).

This machine has been overhauled extensively. The overhaul includes:

Repairs: this Polymoog has been fixed. It is one of the few around that are 100% functional.

Keyboard contacts have been cleaned and aligned. All seventy-one rubber keyboard bushings have been replaced with brand new ones. All thirty seven indicator LED’s for the pushbuttons on the front panel, as well as their current regulating resistors have been replaced with new ones that are less energy consuming and thus put less strain on the power supply.

All the capacitors on the power supply have been replaced with new ones in order to reduce chances of burn out.

All fifteen hundred solder connections for the polycom and balance card slots on the three motherboards have been re-soldered to reduce occurrence of fuzzy or dead notes on the keyboard.

All eighteen opamp IC’s LM3080AN on the top left and top right circuit boards have been replaced by their modern day equivalent NTE 996. The old LM3080AN is a common cause of failure in polymoogs. The NTE996 is more durable.

All internal adjustable parameters have been tuned and calibrated.

It has been serviced with durability in mind. This is not a guarantee because the Polymoog remains a sensitive instrument that needs care and attention, but the chances of survival for this one have certainly been improved.

Cosmetically it is in pretty reasonable shape. It does show some wear and tear but overall nothing too outrageous considering it’s age. The worst thing in my opinion would be some curling at the corners of the stickers on the left hand side front panel. See pictures.

The Polypedal Controller, model 285A, serial number 1898 PD is working 100% as well and is in good cosmetic shape.

Included with this sale are five spare Polycom cards and three MM5823N frequency divider IC’s to further increase the potential lifespan of this machine.” Link

These are from my Polymoog Keyboard, which I had been working to restore for months, but the synth has too many issues to sort out. This set of twelve Polycom cards, an entire octave’s worth, has been tested, and were playing just fine. I cannot guarantee how they will perform in your machine, since I was unable to totally sort out all the issues with my Polymoog. However, in every aspect that I was able to test them they performed very well. Also included in this listing is a working balance card.

This auction includes only the twelve Polycom cards and the balance card, and nothing else.” Link

and can still do lots of other neccessary repairs on the Polymoog synthesizer. It contains

a variety of hand selected and marked original spare parts and circuit boards specially

for repair purposes. Since the original synthesizer size and weight was enormous,

shipping almost impossible a few repair kits where distributed to ease this procedure.

By now these Kits are impossible to find.

From this kit where only taken some 10 semiconductor IC’s some dozens

are still left like new on the original black polstering foam. For details please
