Hi Jesper,

If you can't find schematics, I think I might find some time to open my unit 
in the weekend
and take some pictures of the inside with voltmeter attached for reference.

Niels.


I'm still looking for someone who can tell me how to mod the SDS1000 to 
create more
bend and longer decay. I have been able to increase the bend, but not 
without influencing
the pitch range as well. It would be nice if there's someone who knows which 
parts to
replace without risking to turn the unit into a toaster.
