Subject: Re: DW out of tune

Hello, Everybody!

This is only my humble opinion about the trouble:
assuming battery perfectly in order, and patches loaded correctly,
it seems to me that it could be a "freaking" matter. I once tried to
obtain new interesting sounds by opening the case and modding some
pots with a little screwdriver, so obtaining a whole mess.....Trying
then to fix the settings,with not a complete success.... I think I
saw a main tuning pot somewhere between the two main boards...I
think that some "clever technician" like me tried to turn it just to
find out what could have happened....I hope so that You could set
again in tune Your DW8000 simply working on it, using another
working keyboard or frequency known signal as reference. Oh, and
don't forget to keep the tuning slider exactly in the half of its
lane.
I hope also my english was good enough to make myself well
explained,and that You can receive again joy by playing with this
beautifully sounding machine!!

All the best,
Francesco Manduca-resistenzaaoltranza.
