Matrix-1000: one voice faulty, replace chip?

2013-04-20 by hawkberg

Hi

I recently bought a Matrix-1000, which the seller claimed was in perfect condition. When it arrived, I quickly discovered this was not so :-(

One of the voices (or one of the oscillators of one of the voices ) is not functioning properly, the symptoms vary a lot from one patch to another.... from being completely silent to having a wrong pitch or other anomaly)

I did return to factory defaults + ran calibration: no effect.

Then I put it in "show voices played" mode, and the faulty voice always shows up at voice number 2.

Any idea if this means I can have one of the CEM chips in it replaced?
Anyone with similar experiences?

grateful for any help or tip

regards
HÃ¥kon
