Re: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] vfxsd calibration

2005-11-17 by JDM Zangari

I've had luck in the past for parts and major repairs with TheSoniq. Got parts once, sent unit for repair once. Check it out on the web first, more info there. Only complete repair shop I know. I also have a service man for many more common repairs near Reading Pennsylvania. Don't know if either of these are close to you. TheSoniq ships worldwide. Can't find name and address of Pennsylvania repair shop at the moment.

I've tried this but still no luck.
Also I saw on a web site that if you solder the 2 mother boards together
under the keyboard it should resolve the problem .BUT NO IT DON'T.
What else can I do.
Iam getting nowhere fast.
Isn't there an ensoniq repairer anywhere?
