Now I can't remember - I'll have to hook them up again to be sure but I think the one with only one good voice was the one with 3328s. The voices that have failed are very specific to the note order. If I press one key and keep it held down, then press another, etc... I can determine how many voices of the six are working. They are always dead in the same order, such as: 1-quiet, 2-working, 3-working, 4-working, 5-quiet, 6-quiet or 1-quiet, 2-quiet, 3-quiet, 4-quiet, 5-working, 6-quiet > > I do have schematics and board layouts, but have not been able to > > get anywhere with them. > > Do you have schematics for both versions? Unfortunately, I only have schematics for one version - but since I can't find anyone in the state that fixes vintage keyboards, I'm kind of stuck. My ability to read schematics is quite basic. I can find a component in the diagram, then find the actual part on the board, but that is about it. Knowing what part may be responsible for the problem is beyond me. I got a basic oscilloscope expecting to be able to read the output from each signal pin of the ICs in each circuit path, assuming that one of them would be suspiciously flat-lined - but I haven't found anything like that in poking around so far. Everything seems to have power and is moving signals along. > If you open the noise slider, do any of the dead voices pass/filter > the noise?

I'll write again as soon as I get them tested again. Thanks very much for your consideration!!
