Ok, it's OT, but personal e-mail replies (to
overand@...)
would be appreciated.
I finally did it, I baked my Juno-106. My Voice 5+6 DCO chip went
bad (for the second time) not playing square waves on voice 5. So I
ordered up a new one and installed it. Now (after one goofy power-up
with a bad solder joint, oops, which caused vocies 5-6 to be totally
dead) it's running fine, aside from the fact that ALL my sawtooth
waves are gone, no sawtooth on any voice. I must have seriously
baked something, or goofed up a cable somewhere, or sliced a trace,
but there's no sawtooth at all anymore.
I'm stressing out like I've never stressed with the Juno before.
Granted I can replace it for something on the order of $350 - $450,
but I like this one, it's been through a bit with me, and now I've
wounded it.
Arrgh. Feel free to ignore, or to forward me to an appropriate post,
but I'm not a complete electro-ninny, i'm just not an engineer. I've
checked ∗every∗ trace going from the chip out, as far as I can tell,
on boths sides of the board, and they're all good. Also, no two
adjacent pins seem to be shorted.
