Hmm... From "and I don't think my string section is working..." I would assume that the brass section IS working which would rule out the MK50240 (then all notes would be dead). Concerning TDA1008 there's one per voice so if one of them were dead you would lose just one note out of 12. As for availability, TDA1008 is pretty easily available costing <$10. So if the brass section is working the critical stuff (SSM 2040 and SSM 2050 in the later versions) are OK, the string section is just a bunch of 1458 and 741 opamps. "also seems like the EQ switches don't do anything" - they shouldn't. EQ only applies to string section.

There are replacement parts for such Chips, but they cost much money. Stef aaron_peters wrote: >Hi Ridzert, > >I'm using the Main output and the both Strings LEDs light up.
