Mike..........

after reading all of the comments about the reliability/unreliability of 
the/your sidstation..........I've come to the conclusion that your 
machine MUST be have faulty hardware as it seemed not to want to work 
from (close to) day one.

I suggest you you exchange it for a new one from where you bought it 
(that is if it wasn't a used item.)

Otherwise if you are really pissed off with it you can always return it - 
right!

As for me ,when I received my upgrade to os.1 chips the pins on both of 
the chips were bent to buggery.

I thought F-ing great, but after I straigtened and installed them, 
luckily they
worked,although I haven't tried to flash my rom yet as I've been waiting 
for
a mac rom flasher from Electron.which I now see is available.

So Mike 

Please have another crack at getting a working sidstation........you 
won't regret it in the long run......

ION.................

END of LINE...... .. . 

P.S. Sidtation is analogue. Anologue synths give the purist sound over 
digital
that's for sure mate!
