General Book(s) about Repairing / Troubleshooting Synthesizers?

2006-02-25 by maschinengeist001

Hi! I'm looking for some books on maintenance, repair, troubleshooting 
synthesizers. You know, the usual: clean pots, change keys, etc. I've 
searched around the Net (and Amazon too) without much success. 

Know of any? Or excellent how-to websites? 

Thanks a bunch in advance!

of repairing synths.has some add-on schematics in the back.Anthing by 
Delton Horn is good!Finding these books is a pain.Most are out of 
print,although you can look-up Delton on the web.I have an extra copy 
of this book in paper-back edition that I would part with.write me and

Hi Robby

I sent you an email right after your post. Have you received it? I'd 
like to discuss about the "transfer".

Thanks in advance
