I recently posted that I had a bad mux chip , CD4067.

The chip was fine, it was the sliders.I took said sliders apart and found 
that the end of the resistive track wasn't making contact with the terminal 
- IOW open, hence the consistently HIGH wiper voltage.

I added a socket for the 4067's anyway and am waiting for some new sliders 
to come in.

In the mean time I transplanted the EG Key Follow sliders to the bad slots 
and grounded vacant slider inputs to the mux ( I rarely use those)

Oh and NEVER spray Super PPE on these Roland sliders - I screwed one of 
them up, and only partially rejuvenated it with some silicone spayed on the 
casing NOT the resistive track.
