Vintage Synth Repair

Hi Mike,
When I bought mine the pitch bend did not work.
This is software controlled.
The service manual has a calibration prodedure to 
adjust the pitch bend wheel.

I would ask them to check that, and if that is the 
problem, I would hagel them on the price, considering 
you had to offer the solution.

Or, if that is not it, then a parts machine it would become.

Hope this helps.
GD

and said it must need a main board. This obviously makes the repair 
anything BUT cost effective.
