Re: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] sd1 dead!

2007-10-07 by Bob S.

Sounds like the 5 volt power supply is gone or an internal fuse is blown, but probably the supply because you are getting some supply voltage to the display.
Unless you know or are a good technician who is ready to jump on it and repair/replace the supply....it sounds like you better find another vfx, vfx-sd or sd1 to use for your weekend gig until you repair your 16 year old sd1 baby.....
