Vintage Synth Repair

Sounds like an electrolytic capacitors problem to me. Please test
those in the power supply section and those in the output too.

The best way is to use a capacitometer. But if you only got a
multimeter, you can test them using OHM. If you get around 0, the cap
is good; high resistance, it's dead or dying.

For best results, desolder one leg in order to avoid picking up the
resistance of the circuit.

Hope that'll help you
