Re: Autotune failure!

2008-09-09 by Karl

Hello takisdamaschis,

When you say output capacitors, are you talking about the small 2.2uF
Cx49 at the edge of the voice board? There is one for each voice.
There is also one of these at the output of each VCO feeding the VCF
If these go you can have tuning problems. Also, try resetting the 
software.( hold sown clear and turn power On)
