Supposedly Kraftwerk replaced their orchestron on the Computer World tour with a second polymoog, well they must have been gluttons for punishment as the polymoog was in no way reliable and even Mr. ARP questioned the design.

But then again until the advent of synths like the DX7 (which generally still work fine with just a battery replacement) nothing was all that reliable.
