VFX-SD waveforms mixed up

2011-09-19 by erin

I recently acquired a VFX-SD. Many of the waveforms seem to be mixed up. The gate-kick sounds like a snare, the room-kick like a double cymbal hit. The congas are cymbals as well. The megapiano is a series of percussion hits followed by about 5 seconds of snare hits. Also, the sine-wave has a noticeable click upon release.

Are the waveforms stored on the ROM and is it possible to reload them or does the ROM need to be replaced? Could this be some sort of mapping problem? The ROM was physically upgraded to 2.00 20 years ago.

I have re-initialized and reloaded all the sounds from disk.

Any help is appreciated,
Erin

P.S. Howdy, I'm new.
