Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

I only turn off my SD-1 when it is being moved and have had no issues since 1991, when I bought it. You might insure that you're connection to ground/earth is not faulty. Grounding problems can sometimes scramble the I.C.s.

I think its normal for most PSU to give off heat.
