Hi -
thanks; had a few minutes last night -- disconnected the wheels from
the front panel (no help); disconnected CN06 - 2 (no help);
disconnected R9 that feeds the CV mixer IC 8 : problem vanished.

Didn't have any more time (dealing with a dead Prophet 5 power
supply), but it's aroused my curiosity: why would pulling R9 do the
job, when pulling CN06-2 had no effect? -- according to the
schematic, it would be basically the same thing.

Hope to have more time tonight; meanwhile, any further thoughts
would be appreciated.

Thanks again.
