Crumar DS-1 Problem
2004-04-30 by Andrew R. Grantham
Hi. I just got a Crumar DS-1 off of eBay and it is not functioning. It appears it was damaged in shipping. There are two sets of eight keys each which are in the wrong octave. I'm guessing there is a chip somewhere which controls the oscillators and has either come loose or needs replacing. Anyone know even where inside the case I'm likely to find what I'm looking for? The boards on the left side were definitely impacted as the black plastic arm that holds them in place was snapped and sitting on top of them. When I fiddle with the frontmost board, the pitches change. Could it simply be a bad solder joint or to on this board or connection? Thanks! If anyone knows of anywhere PDF schematics are, I'd be MOST grateful. Even the DS-2 schematics.
