I love it!!!!
I used to have an Akai s-1000 that needed regular "altitude adjustments"
Geez... you guys are gonna *love* this:
Dreading the thought of having to trace my way through the current
paths of the circuitry looking for anomalies, I resorted to the time
honoured 'rapid decelleration' repair technique I learned from
watching guitarists fix their Traynor amps onstage (mid set).
I picked the damned thing up about 6 inches off the bench, holding it
nice and level, and dropped it.
Worked like a charm... programs intact and everything. Go figure.
Currently rummaging through the parts bins for audio taper pots... got
some mods to do, don't I?
Thanks for all your help, guys...
