Re: I need a little help

My Mellotron has a fried PML 1. Does anyone on the list have one? If not can anyone put me in touch with Dave Kean? Perhaps he might still have a few parts lying around. My old email address for him is no longer valid and Markus is on vacation. Our friends at Streetly are busy working on the M-4000 just now and have said it might be a while before they can get back to making some up.
Thanks to a stupid error made at 2 AM when I should not have been working in my shop, I find myself in this position.
Any help would be appreciated.

I believe they are the cards for volume and tone controls in the Sound Sales machines, but unlike the separate cards (WME 289 / WME 290) in your standard 400, these circuits are on one card.
I'm not sure if these are still made by Mellotron Archives or Streetly.
You might have to just replace the blown caps / resisitors on there (which would be a pain) or
you might have to purchase the separate cards and then wire them together, but I could (and hopefully am) wrong about that, as that is also a real pain..
Jerry might know.
Jerry are you out there????
