Peter,
If only the P6 had a sample and hold circuit! Good point about
capacitors, especially electrolytic types, which could have well
dried up after 25+ years service. But do test them first before
binning them. I had what I though was a suspect capacitor in circuit
(0.33uF). It still measured 0.339uF after all that time!
However, I listened to the sample and the croaky voices sounded just
like mine before I replaced the VCF chips. I only has a single voice
out. Try swaping the IC32 between voices (SSM2044) and see what
happens.
Did you get the 'private' message I sent you?
Cheers,
Andy
