Hi - I barely ever read this group anymore, and just happened to catch
your post before it got scrolled off the front panel by the torrent of
spam here.

I sold my sometimes-functional milton some months ago. I got tired of
messing with it. On to newer things to mess with - my MFOS sequencer
is almost done - not nearly as powerful as the milton, but it'll be
fun nonetheless.

Yes, I managed to fix that problem. But I'm not sure exactly what it
was I did that fixed it. Basically I disconnected the engine board,
went over every solder, and cleaned any potential problems, replaced
all the chips, and reassembled it. After doing all that, with just one
bank board connected, it worked fine, none of the step 2 and 10
anomolies, but async still didn't work. I then did some more cleaning
and checking, it still worked as before, so I hooked up a second bank
board, and the thing got wierd - it would run a few steps, random
lengths it seemed, then stop. This is the point I threw in the towel
on it. Sold it to a local diy-er.

My guess is that it's just some dirt or something causing a short
somewhere - clean it out rigorously first and see what happens.

Steve
