Re: Arp Odyssey: any note leads to a high pitch

2011-07-24 by Boddington

Thank you for clearing that up. I suspected that this was the case as well but I never found that clarification. As you pointed out, the documentation suggests it but I wasn't 100% sure. I've only had one other Oddyssey here before and it was in such bad condition that I didn't proceed with any repairs to it. Sorry to waste your time on that.

I've started to look at that semi-tone issue. On Board A, pin 8 - cv out - I can see that the voltage shifts on release. So far I've traced it back as far as Q8, the 3958. I can drain the voltage from there. I ca't say that I'v found anything faulty yet. I'm looking into what inputs and outputs one should expect to find.
