The HAWK-800 can be installed in the original Korg Poly-800 as well as the MK2 and the EX-800 synth. The HAWK-800 is a hardware/software upgrade kit for the Korg Poly-800 model synthesizers. This disc is even helpful for owners of the Poly-800 II, which uses a different patch format. The HAWK-800 provides the Korg Poly-800 with a dramatically improved and expanded MIDI implementation as well as many new sound and user control features. This would make a wonderful addition to anyone who owns a (PS-800) Poly-800, and EX-800 which are based on the same type of hybrid digital/analog programming and are able to load the same patches. Now includes a patch names database so you can flag sounds that you like the best.Īll files available either as a CD-ROM or as a download which is compatible with both Macintosh & Windows PCs. I’ve also included information about some mods you (or a technician) can make to the Poly-800 to make it a better synth for modern music, as well as more valuable information. I also have over 10 WAV files including program data which can be loaded into a Poly-800 if you’ve got an audio cable connecting your computer’s sound card to the Poly-800 (under $5 from Radio Shack, not included).Īdditionally, I have included sysex patch transfer software for Macintosh OS9, OSX, and PC (I don’t have a Poly-800 any more, so I can’t test it) as well as some data in sysex format.

As a former owner and programmer of the Korg Poly-800, I made PDFs of the User Manual, Program List (including not just the names of patches, but all the settings), and MDK ROM sheet (that’s the rare ROM upgrade that allows first generation Poly-800 keyboard synthsesizers to transmit patch data via Sysex). It also was relatively inexpensive and could play either 4 or 8 voices of polyphony depending upon whether one used one or two oscillators to make a sound. It was the first synthesizer manufactured with MIDI onboard, so it was a popular controller for other synthesizers. The Korg PS-800 was widely popular under its nickname, the Poly-800.
