Re: [Roland_Jupiters] VCO2 Offset issue on a JP 6

2013-12-05 by Robert Stewart

No it's constant

I've made some progress. It looks like the issue is either the bender 
board or the jack board.
If I disconnect these (M4J/M4J) and then monitor the VCA output pin, I 
get unison when I'm centred.
Obviously something coming in on that connector (Bender VCO 2) that's 
throwing it out.

Might get a chance tomorrow to look further.


Will keep you posted.
