I just got one in that has an empty socket by EPROM pair there it 
appears.  They had shorted the voltage regulators to the heat 
sink..and..foiled the blown fuse...lol... I properly mounted them and it 
fires right up (in a good way..at +-12V on them) but I get no sounds out 
still. This thing is 1981 I guess EP/Organ/String machine with mostly 
digital stuff I see.  Got it cheap and had never seen one.  If nothing 
else it's a great keyboard/box to build another synth in :-)  But I'd 
love to get some info on it and see what it sounds like if possible of 
course.  If anyone has one and could pull the two panel screws and tilt 
it up and at least let me know if I'm missing an EPROM.  That could do 
it :-)
