Shortly after I sent this email, I got an off list reply from Music Control
Audio
Services Ltd (www.Musiccontrol.co.uk) makers of the Deep Bass 9 saying
that they're willing to help anyone with DB9 problems.  They also asked me
not to release my reverse engineered schematics of the DB9, and so I
will not post my (rather scruffy) reverse engineered schematics at present.
Whether they will make schematics or other service information available is
yet to be seen, but I made the arguments in favour of releasing service
documents and they made the right sort of noises.  Time will tell.

It seems this list has a wider readership than I thought, and that can mean
influence.
