Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

Hi Jim. I'm about ready to send off my Vfx's to the soniq.com thank you for the info though I realize that you responded to me over a year ago can you "ball-park" the amount it cost you to send it and get it repaired? I too am in the capital district it would help me to know if i've saved enough to actually do one or both of them. thanks in advance for whatever help you might be able to offer me.

> Hi everyone it's been awhile. I have two VFX-SD keyboards and neither of them work. is there some reputable place where I can send them to get repaired. I was willing to try and do the service\repairs myself but I don't want to mess up I have a fear of destroying the key boards. I have Os 10.1 or at least that's what it says on the discs. but I can't load them or the sequencer on  any of my boards. one has one bank of sounds plays fine no sequencer loaded. the other is constantly calibrating. can someone help me or point me in the right direction?
