Check that DCO2 is actually turned on - there are eight oscillators, so you can have eight-note poly single-oscillator, or four-note poly dual-oscillator patches. If param 18 is set to 1, you can't fiddle with the (nonexistent) DCO2. > Some of the buttons seem a little out of shape, hyper sensitive when > selecting the numbers. Get thee to eBay and buy a huge bag of little clicky tact switches, some solder braid, a pair of tweezers or forceps, and a really good pair of snips. Remove the top panel PCB and *once you're sure* the clickyswitches are the same (you get different heights of button) clip off all the old ones with the snips, desolder and remove the legs with the tweezers, and clean up the excess solder with the braid. Now solder in all the new clickyswitches making sure you use leaded solder - lead-free is useless stuff and will only cause you problems. Do them all at once, because you don't want to be getting that stuff apart twice. Have fun. -- Gordon JC Pearce MM0YEQ
