Hey all,
Great photos of the System 700. Kind of wierd because I was at my bosses
house last night powering up his newly acquired System 700 for the first
time. The filters are great and the look is very sharp. The sequencer did
not clock from an external signal or start to cycle by pushing the start
switch.
Anybody know of a good synth repair guy we can send this to for a lube and
service? California guy would be great but I'll ship it if there is only one
or two places that can fix and refurbish it. My boss has the main cabinet
and the sequencer cab along with the keyboard. The CV's coming out of the
keyboard were not even close to 1v/oct scale. Something like 1v per 2
octaves. What componenets inside cause this to happen over time? Maybe its a
calibration issue? It'd be nice to turn a trim pot somewhere and adjust the
scale to new but I doubt it will be like this.
I plan to take a mobile rack of MOTM down there next week and try to
interface the 2 which I'm sure will be great! Can't wait for the MOTM
Envelope Follower someday cause we played guitar through this thing and it
was quite fun to have the auto wah coming from the 700. Fat bandpass effects
with VCF #2. Is a bandpass MOTM coming out soon or I guess I should say,
does the MOTM-480 have what I'm looking for with autowah applications? I
know we can do this now with 2x420's but it would be much easier with one
VCF. Again if you know of a good tech please let me know!

PS. Frostwave Fat controller should be here tomorrow to control the MOTM
while waiting for the MightyMoeSequencingMachine. Anybody other than David
Bivins had experience with one of these? I wish it could take an external
clock but I think I figured a way around it by using the clock from the Fat
controller to trigger my other simple sequencers in gear like MC-202 and
SH-101. Can't wait for sure and I really can't wait to sync the new
sequencer up to my computer and multi-track all kinds of MOTM Bleeps Bobs
and Burps in time with my PC audio program YEAH!!!
