I've owned a SY 77 and i can say two things: 1st, the blending of FM and samples is stunning and allows a personality of a kind hardly found on counterpart of the time...however...the playing on the patches is totally uncorrect...i mean that this kind of patches relate to a musical genre...for example, if you play a ep patch like a nintendo game sequence you are far away from the power this synth has...

The difference between ring modulation and amplitude modulation was truly a mystery to me. The specific model I know of is the KAWAI K1 series. This model is equipped with amplitude modulation, and many other analog synths have a ring modulation function. The explanation of ring modulation is that it extracts the sum and difference from two inputs, while amplitude modulation is when you modulate the amplitude with a high frequency oscillator, not an LFO, and can generate sideband harmonics, resulting in new harmonics. Yamaha's CS series analog synthesizers had a high upper limit LFO modulation speed, which allowed them to generate sideband harmonics, making ring modulation a non-necessary feature.

It would be well worth getting an earthed anti static mat to work on. Although carpet is soft and useful for taking things apart, for working on boards you want to reduce any possible static build up. If a mat is not suitable then an earthed wrist band is helpful.
@RunningonairMusic2 ай бұрын
Yes, I think that's worth considering. until recently, I've been working in the kitchen where the floor is wooden, so you don't get the same build-up of static. But I'm moving operations to my office, where there is carpet, and so yes the wrist band might have to come out a bit more.

good video. I recently repaired a D-20, probably the most annoying repair I've done! Horrible cable connectors, awful layout and very prone to chip and component failures. All working now and it was only £25 so can't complain. You had the right approach - Frankenstein 2 or more together to get a working synth. Do you still have the spares D-20 case parts? I'd buy the end cap right side if you want to sell it.

5 Years! I think the longest I've had between getting and repairing was about 2 years - you win. My rule is if it's still in bits after about 6 months, give it another go...then re-ebay it for spares. The mainboard did look pretty corroded, maybe a spare board will come up to swap over, D-10's are still pretty cheap for parts. I have one of those desoldering stations, very handy but I find the gun does clog up far too often if the old solder is claggy and turning into paste - which it usually is on older gear, I keep the little cleaning rod handy.
@RunningonairMusic4 ай бұрын
Yeah, I think that's a record for me, but I feel I could do much better and probably will! I need to do some detailed diagnosis to work out what the sound issue is. It only affects about half the sounds, so I think it's a problem on one of the sound ROM chips, a missing link on the data bus or something. I've not had any problems with the solder gun yet but I'll watch out for that. Thanks for the comment!
