CZ Rackmount Conversion Update #1

2001-08-11 by Tony Reynolds

I picked the CZ-101, though I could've done a 1000. I think the synth 
and power supply/amp boards are the same.

I never made my volume slider knob.  I decided I would get over the 
problem. :)

I bought a CZ-101 from a guy on Ebay, and boy did it need some help. 
It was so dirty that it looked like kids used it to build mud 
castles.  I've taken it apart all the way. I've played around with 
identifying various boards and their components.  I'm not ready to 
start desoldering yet. :)

There are a number of connection busses to the User Interface boards. 
I don't know if I'll be able to cheat & build a replacement switch 
system like I wanted to.  I have to understand the workings of the 
switch boards before I begin replacing them.  I know I can 
make /something,/ it's just that I may need a different tack.

A service manual would be helpful about now. I've written off for 
one, but so far have received no reply. Takers on this?

Tony
