Hi Michael, Thanks for your response.
The problem I am Having is not a high pitch noise, it is a small static burst
after I play a note and it is only on 2 of the organ tones, it is possible that
it could be a chip or possibly a capacitor. I will try subbing the chips on
that one board to see if that cures the problem.
Mike

If it's the same "whine" I'm thinking of, it is for me one of the Bit's most unique and endearing qualities. :)
As an aside, the Bit doesn't always sound very special by itself, but like many great instruments, if you get it into the right place in a mix, it's a secret weapon. I think the oscillators are the main reason. That whine -- which I think is possibly aliasing of some sort, never worked it out for certain -- gives basslines a certain edge and grit.--mpa

hi everyone!
recently i purchased a white bit 99 (+ white case) for cheap, that looks like brand new!
even the patch cards are still attached!
what i noticed first, was this high pitched, somewhat metalic sound, audible on lower octaves, if the filter is open. anyone else noticed this? is this a characteristic of the bit, or could it be a faulty chip or something like that? thanks!
