Thanks Kris and others, I replaced the bridge rectifier and cleaned all the gunky flux off the +5V power supply board soldering; now I have good power but some very strange voice behaviour (display works correctly; values on the analog page respond to knob turns correctly; voice 1 drones occasionally; keyboard does not play notes properly although aftertouch does have some effect; some waves produce distorted sounds but most don't; bender and mod wheel affect the droning oscillator as expected; etc etc.) Time to break out the CRO and see what I can find wrong next. Thanks for your help! Cheers, A.
