that's really interesting, i have a similar problem - bank D and patch 4. but i'm not sure about the patch degradation... sometimes i DO get the VCO modulation...

Ive seen this problem your having before. The way to fix this is to take apart the 3 pots in the MG section and clean them.The problem is that the contact area...
hi, I don't think your RAM is damaged, try to find broken traces on the PCB leading to it. If some of them are damaged by battery leakage, writing a patch will...
