No - never seen that. Is it out of tune by the same amount across the keyboard or different in different places? Is it still the same even if you return the pitch bend to centre detente?

I have reposted above as the fault has now 'developed' into not playing notes at all...or random notes but only when triggered via MIDI, playing the keys everything is absolutely fine?

What happens when you trigger another MIDI device FROM the CZ,as opposed to vice versa? Is it only when the CZ is triggered externally?

It looks like all is OK from the keys, just incoming midi presents the problem. Perhaps its a simple as the optoisolator going bad. I'd say it might be worth having someone look at it. Let us know what happens. Steve --- In CZsynth@yahoogroups.com, Lee Borrell <templarser@...> wrote:

My own thinking was the opto isolator system. Not sure how this is set up on CZs. On the interface I built for the commodore it was an individual chip. ________________________________ From: steve_the_composer <smw-mail@prodigy.net> To: CZsynth@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, 23 November 2013, 19:31 Subject: Re: [CZsynth] CZ3000 Midi Pitch Problems It looks like all is OK from the keys, just incoming midi presents the problem.

I've not seen a schematic or service manual for the 3000 but for my 1000 it was a pc900 optoisolator which are cheap and readily available from mouser etc.
