moog slayer problem

2009-07-16 by hondurasllanos

hello, 
first of all, thanks for all the information you korgpolyex group have posted here. it is been very helpful.

my problem is related with moog slayer mod.
i have the mkII model.  my skills in soldering are rather pour.  althow i did try to make it and it worked.  but after some weeks some wires got disconnected. i try to fix them again but the moog slayer didn't work anymore.  instead i got a distorted noise from my poly, and parameters like resonance (32) doesn't work even with the - + buttons.
what could be wrong? 
i double checked connections and everything seems to be right in place.

sorry for my english, and thank you very much.

Sounds to me like one of the wires has touched something it shouldnt have blowing something else.
you will need to check everything within reachable are of the wires that came loose with a voltage tester
or scope. You will need schematics to determine the values of each component.
If you are unsure of how to do this dont attempt it as you could do more damage
