Xpantastic!

Hi,
Well you are right. It must be the chip.  I have seen them come up on ebay occasionally.
Maybe someone has a spare they can sell you. At least you can turn the voice off for the time being. 
Do a gog search, you might find one at a repair shop somewhere.

Hi Karl

Thanks for your answer. Yes I am pretty sure. Voice No. 4 died completely (no sound at all, the tunig fails immediately) . I started swapping the chips and that is the one that does not work (if I swap it with another voice, i.e. 5, then that one no longer works but 4 is fine again etc).

Haven't heard that these chips fail often but here it seems the case. The unit is in very good condition otherwise, I bought it some months ago from US.

Lovely lovely machine I do hope I will be able to use all 6 voices again.

Regards
flo
