Vintage Synth Repair

So it's a late, *stable* one... OK, then it will probably be much like I said in the first place.

Check those flags...!

It affects all oscillators at the same time. Is this a known issue in old minimoogs? I would usually suspect either power supply main voltage instability, bad caps or transistors, but being it affecting all 3 oscillators, I tend to think it is not oscillator circuit related ? :/ I'm new to minimoogs so any help would be appreciated... Thanks !
