[sdiy] Oberheim DSX

[Eric Frampton]

Hi all -

I’m prepping my DSX to hand off to a friend who still has an OB-8 and a DMX and wants to make the complete System. This is the same DSX that was rescued from the garbage and that I got running a couple of years ago. It’s recently developed a problem that I can’t solve.

When hooking the OB-8 up to it (and I’ve tried this on two different OB-8’s), the DSX records the performance properly, based on the note count in the display. However, upon playback, some of those notes stutter - they’re being re-triggered in quick succession. Not every note is being retriggered, and there doesn’t seem to be a pattern to it.

I’ve been poring over the schemos but am not sure where to even start looking to pinpoint this. Me and digits is like me and sheet music - we have a tenuous relationship.

I’ve got the last OS installed in it (I think it’s 3.04).

Thoughts?

thanks,
Eric
