Re: stumped - no variation of pitch!!!

2008-12-28 by erikfromhere

I recently broke a diode while having the BA-board turned upside down 
for desoldering the opamps. At that moment, the highest 4 keys all had 
the same pitch. I was lucky I could find the bad component because the 
broken diode could be seen by eye. In your case I would desolder all 
diodes and check them. Good luck.

Somewhere around IC3
