DW-6000/8000 extra waveforms mod

2016-09-25 by Bob Grieb

On the Strellis web site, he mentions that the waveform ROMs were not socketed 
on his DW-6000, so I assume they are also not socketed on the DW-8000.  This makes
installing this kind of mod a much bigger deal than simply unplugging chips and plugging 
a cable into the socket or something.  I wonder if people would really be happy
with this mod long-term, since the expanded waveform selection cannot be saved with 
the patch, or controlled by MIDI.   Also, there seem to be lots more DW-8000's around than 
DW-6000's, whereas the 6000 seems a better candidate for the mod due to it's more limited
waveform selection.

       He explains it's a bit cumbersome and doesn't
 want to have to troubleshoot other people's
 efforts....
 Please don't ask for schematics, FPGA code or the
 binary contents of the expanded ROMs for this mod. I really
 can't afford the time to support other peoples
 modification attempts.
 Sorry.
