re: buzzing out - Sorry, but it sounds like it's time for a tech.  - The 
PCB mod job really is only an hour, case open to case close, for someone 
who has the tools and knows what they're doing. of course, now you quite 
possibly have to fix a burned thing, too. It doesn't even have to be a 
synth tech. though a synth tech would be preferred.


But if you really want to press on, I'd seriously recommend you don't 
use a box cutter. You want something with a lot more control than that, 
and with more sideways strength than a razor blade.

something like this.  http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=HG9955

Or better, you can often get these in a set of 3, and you use the middle 
one in the set. ones available in singles are usually the small one...

You can get them from art shops, and hardware shops, as well as 
electronics shops.
