Hey Johannes,
Thanks a lot for the ideas. I've tested this morning the RESET signal of the main cpu and whatever i did, there were constantly 4.6 v there so by following the schematics I noticed it linked to the comparator IC5, LM393 which was bad in a way that pin 7 (output) and pin 8 (vcc) were internally shorted.
Replaced that and everything came to live. Including keyboard and tones.
NOW, There are still things to figure out.
1. Arpeggiator not working.
2. There is a noise around 22khz at output, like a self resonant thing like an old tube while functioning or like a camera flash when charging. very annoying.
3. each and every voice may need calibrating as each one is different in volume, pitch or filter. are there any guidelines for this?
thanks again.
Razvan

I'm suspecting the latches: 74ls75
