On a bit of a roll tonight, clearing the backlog. This MC-202 came in for a Tubbutec MC-2oh2 upgrade. This requires a little bit of SMT rework, but it absolutely transforms the simple MC-202 into a top-notch groovebox! 😊

So - new processor, new keyboard, new OLED display module fitted, plus a handful of simple mods to the existing board. Done and looking and sounding glorious!

Next up on the bench - a rare Korg MS-03 signal processor. This has been in the backlog for some time, and will be for sale once I’m done here.

This ARP Axxe from the backlog got mostly finished tonight. This had been previously repaired and some mistakes had been made.

Finished and working apart from the sliders! 👍🏼❤️ In fact, this Mk1 Axxe contains the transistor-ladder filter, making it very rich indeed.

A Quick Matrix-1000 service tonight. This one got a new battery, Tauntek’s excellent 1.20 firmware update (with permission!) and some repairs to the display. Finally - reloaded the factory patches and calibrated the DAC DC offset. Done!

And finally tonight - a quick Juno-106 service, with all-new modules from Analogue Renaissance. Plus, refreshed the power supply, swapped out the battery, and calibrated it. Done!
