Hi guys, Occasionally,my Tron appears to be a bit wobbly all over the keyboard,even after warmup,just playing one note,any note.It even seems to be a periodical wobble.This would be the CMC4 acting up I presume? Cheers,H

---I'm not an "expert" but I had trouble with my servo at one point, giving the wobble effect you describe. I cleaned the tape head that was reading sync information off the motor gear- it was absolutely covered with crap. After that my tron limped along famously for years before Mr. Korb completely healed it. BTW I think I have cmc2 on #390 In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "Hessel Herder" <hessel@...> wrote:

---I'm not near the studio right now but it is right next to the motor in bettween the motor itself, the wooden mount and the belt pulley. If you don't have one then our servos are different, I will look for some photos. In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "tomdcour" <tomdcour@...> wrote:

---Yes I will, it's in another computer photo library so I apologize for the delay. Mine is a servo motor 2 that was installes in the 70's by Sound Sales- maybe yours is different and doesn't employ the tape head. Any one else on the list know what I'm talking about?
