Emax Problem Diagnosis

2010-02-05 by preslavl

Hello,

I wanted to see if I can get some help diagnosing the problem(s) of an Emax I i just purchased.

Here are they symptoms:


- No Frequency Cutoff - I calibrated the data slider and it registers the frequency cutoff (FC) going up in numbers but you cannot hear any change.

- No Attack in the ADSR or the filter ADSR - cannot hear an increase in attack even when the values increase.

- No Volume - volume slider was calibrated and it seems to work but moving it up or down does not make a difference...volume seems to be at 100%. 


These are pretty much all the symptoms I've notices so far. 


Things I've covered so far:

- I replaced the 4 SSM 2300 that were in the sampler - it did not seem to make ANY difference. I replaced the original chips with ones marked: "SSM2300 8652". I purchased these on eBAY. Could this be the issue?

- I went through the recalibration procedure - no change.

- I performed the diagnostic tests inside the Master menu (8, 8, YES). ERAM and Bank RAM checked out OK and all other tests seemed to have passed. 


Any ideas anyone?


Thank you,

Preslav
