Re: moog prodigy modifications / repairs !! (cross-posted)


After finding this image:
http://www.pmerecords.com/Docs/ProdigyPCBLayoutsAll.jpg

. . I've determined that I have the earlier version of the Prodigy.
Also, I've got my Audio Input working perfectly..

I still could use any advice on the Filter Control Input, the
switch issue, and on the FM filter mod (which is trickier on the
earlier models, apparently)..


Thanks a lot !
