The Kawai & Teisco Analog Synths Group

Hi

I got a Teisco S60f in the mail today but unfortunately it came with some problems, which I hope are minor...

The high-output at least is working (haven't checked the low yet...), but the phones output doesn't work at all...
Given this is an all analog synth, it shouldn't be hard to fix, right?

The second problem is worrying me a bit more...
I notice that most of the time the keys I play are slightly delayed and only play a bit after...
I also notice that when I try to play some fast lines, it just ends up skipping the notes...
Is this likely a problem of lack of cleaning, as the unit wasn't used for a long time, according to the seller, and indeed the sliders had quite some dirt on them...
Or can it be a problem with some of the electronics related with the keyboard and complicated to find pieces for it and repair?


Thanks in advance,
Best

Paulo

Sounds like contact issues. Just get it to a tech, shouldn't be a big fix.
