So there _are_ 3086's... I didn't see those on the schematics. I'll gladly
take a few pictures when I dig into it again. I bet it's the same then...
But do you say that the 3086's are the tone generators so to speak? From my
limited experience and todays values I have my suspicion set at a 1458 which
in connected to both waveform and noise/tone potentiometer.

Hi Jesper,
this is exactly the thing I want to know. The III is the four channel
device, as far as I know and the IV the two channel device, but the IV is
not only half III. The IV has no master section with run generator and lfo,
but may be the single channel is also different to the III.
I repaired Wolfgangs III two month ago. It has no oscillators at all, the
tone is nothing but a resonating ladder filter, copied 1:1 from good old bob
moog. If you turn the Noise/Tone pot to noise, the resonance is completely
off, so also the impact click will not be audible. But on my schematics of
the III there are 3 3086 per channel, these are containing transistor arrays
to build this filter.
What I am wondering about is this pot on the IV called "Waveshape". Is this
an osc or only an lfo? Maybe a good photo of both solder side and parts side
would help.
Michael

Hi List!
I'm looking inside my newly arrived SDS-IV due to a dead oscillator and
I'm
comparing it to the schematics of SDS-III. Is it just me or aren't they
alike? There are no 3086's on the SDS-III schematics but quite a few in
the
SDS-IV...
Anyone with a SDS-IV schematic around?
electronically yours, jesper
