6 FREQ RESPONSE TEST gives digital noise!?!

2006-04-09 by [cYcLoThYmIqUe]

Another mute XL-7 tonight, :(

Has anyone encoutered this problem?
All of a sudden, the XL-7 sounds like a 8bit sampler, with white noise 
all over the sounds. And then, nothing, no sound on analog or digital 
outputs.

When doing DIAGNOSTICS tones, whatever the frequency, it's all digital 
noise, except a few times when the Command Station does actually output 
a fine tone, at random. It says there's no ROM inside: yeah right, there 
are 4, and it played nice a few hours ago.

This comes from a mint XL-7, always switched off with the... er... 
switch on the back, in perfect condition, not a scratch, no gig, no 
smoke, nothing.

Any clue? Thanks.
