Oberheim Matrix 1000 freezing

Oberheim Matrix 1000 freezing

2000-12-21 by Arnaldo Cavioli Ortega

Hi! 

I'm about to buy an Oberheim Matrix 1000 through an auction. I 
couldn't see it working and the current owner states it's working 
perfectly except that it needs to warm up before operation. When cold 
it freezes. I'm a little bit concerned about this being a major 
problem but all info I could found about Matrix is that the unit is 
very reliable and there are no project leaks. 

Has anyone experienced this problem? For Matrix owners (anybody 
there?): is it so reliable? 

Thanks! 
Arnaldo.
