Re: [elektron] Broken SID

2005-03-07 by Rob Muller

The same thing happened to me - because the plugs for my Machinedrum
and Sidstation both look exactly the same. I'm going to look into
getting mine fixed locally, because the shipping cost to Sweden from
Australia and back are too prohibitive. Don't worry though - I emailed
Elektron and they said the Sid chip should be fine. :)

Unfortunately I haven't got it fixed yet, but I'd be interested to
hear how you go & how much it costs.

Cheers!
Rob.
