Vintage Synth Repair

Hi,
You don't say if you are measuring with a meter or scope.  That would help knowing before going further.
Have you checked all power supplies for correct voltage?

Besides, most of the adress pins (34-50) have a weird output of constantly 1.5V. - and at a few of the pins above 50, there is a slight trace of the 8 MHz clock signal. I have measured the TC40Hxxx circuits directly connected to the resonator and the crystal; they seem to work ok. And none of them run hot. As a matter of fact, nothing in the machine runs hot.
