As far as parts supply here in "Down-under" (i.e. Australia) go to 
www.elfa.com.au, they have a few Ensoniq parts left, and service 
documentation to suit. While they may not be the BEST option for 
service, they are a good source of parts and starting points. There's 
also a bunch of independent techs (some of whom are ex-ELFA and are very 
interested in getting your gear running), so fear not, you are not alone.

My SD-1 had a VERY obscure analogue input tracking problem. Elfa 
couldn't fix it, Joseph Pantelaresko from Yamaha Australia (of all 
places) had in running in 30 minutes!!  He's a marvel!! So don't worry, 
there are some talented people that can get you going.

And it is my understanding that inserting the 240 tranny is no big deal. 
And a floppy is avail from Rich in this group (route 66 isn't it?).

if you get stuck - email/message me
