From left to right…

POWER – all good

Newish Wooden Side Panels

KEYBOARD All keys apart from one (E above middle C) are technically triggering but please see notes below about Voices

PITCH BEND / BEND ASSIGNMENTS / OCT TRANSPOSE / LFO TRIGGER – All good, Volume knob is a bit crackly.

KEY TRANSPOSE – working

HOLD KEY working (a bit sticky)

ARPEGGIO – working *range toggle missing although it still functions

LFO – ALL WORKING

DCO SECTION – All Waveforms generating, complete working order

HPF working order (slightly sticky)

VCF section complete working order (slightly sticky)

VCA – mostly working (see below)

CHORUS SECTION All working (LED on Chorus 2 not lighting but still working)

TRIGGER OUTS All work as do headphones, audio outs

OK, NOW THE NOT SO GOOD, I’LL BE AS HONEST AS I CAN

ENV SECTION – ADSR – RELEASE slider not working at all and the SUSTAIN slider won’t reach zero

EVERY SIXTH NOTE APPEARS TO GLITCH (POSSIBLY A FAILING VOICE CHIP??)

ARPEGGIO RUNNING BUT BEHAVING STRANGELY I.E. MISSING A NOTE SOMETIMES (POSSIBLY DUE TO THE VOICE CHIP MENTIONED ABOVE)

A FEW CRACKLES ON SLIDERS and knobs
