Emulator II Voice Problem fixed!!!
2008-11-24 by George
Hi Guys- My dead voice is fixed!! After unsuccessful DIY troubleshooting, I had found a reasonable, local synth tech. He found out that there was an open circuit between Pin 11 of the DAC and R179. As a consequence the DAC had no reference voltage and that screwed up its audio output. He reflowed the soldering points on R179 and some other critical components while he was at it, including all joints on the PSU. The EII now functions like new! Took him 3 hours and he charged me $75, which wasn't bad at all! What an amazing piece of equipment, sounds sooo phatt!! I will never evever sell this baby!! Thanks again to everyone who helped me troubleshoot. George
