Is a new potentiometer something that you think that a relative novice could replace?

Also, what is the op-amp problem you were refering to? Is that doable by ones lonesome?

Is any of this work something you could do?

Ok, so I recently acquired a JP8000 for a nice price. Since then, I have been having some issues maybe someone can help with. After just getting it, i noticed the amp level knob stopped responding to my dictation, despite my efforts to use contact cleaner on it. I figured it was no big deal and move...

I think it would be safe to say the following:

Analog: Roland TR-808

Sample based: Linn Drum/ Oberheim DMX (tie)

Heh Jambo, please tell me your avatar is because you love Fallout 3!

Well, nevermind folks. I had a hunch there were some dirty contacts, so i went to Realistic (erm, radioshack) and got some contact cleaner. Problem solved. What a great sounding synth, and I got it for a real bargain!

Well, I just secured my JP8000 today. I checked it out, everything seemed up to snuff. I have reinitialized the machine, and am getting used to how it works. I think i have encountered a problem, but i am not sure. Whenever i turn the Amp level knob down and then up, the sound level of the patch doe...

Now that it is a nice image.

My dream synth would just be a 12 voice VCO driven Jupiter 8 with a 4 track analog sequencer built in. 8)

This thread is a breath of fresh air, as I am chronic GAS sufferer who is just now getting to like such ideas. I have a microkorg as my poly synth, programmable arpeggiator, and vocoder. I know this machine inside and out, and I couldn't imagine living without it (especially considering its size). ...

Well, if any of that stuff you guys recently posted is true, count me the h**l out. 650 street for a glorified software synth with no tangible sound engine improvements outside of the voicing and vocoder bands? Wow, and here I was all excited.....

It is not just Access stuff...the new and used synth markets were noticeably affected by the economy. I saw micromoogs at GASP 450-500....which is what they fricking should be. I just hope this trend can last long enough for me to be able to snag something. Good luck on catching that Virus :twisted:...

Off Topic... Hey Neonlights84, long time no see!!! In case you're wondering... your An1x is doing fine!! :mrgreen: How you liking the LP so far? On Topic... The P'08 is great too, bu the MS2k actually has more features. The sound of the P'08 is 10000 times better than the MS2K though. Hey Pilot! Go...

Well, hopefully NAMM will provide some answers. There seems to be a lack of actual information on this thing so far. As for the R3, i finally used one today, and man it seemed to be fairly poorly constructed, and the sounds was similar to other korg VA stuff. I think the inclusion of ROMpler stuff w...

If you're on a budget, the MS2000 would be a great buy. It has a lot of features and is reliable. Howevever, if you have some $ laying around, a dave smith prophet 08 would be a fantastic buy. It all depends on how much you want to spend.
