SOme advice from a tired old tech. Make it work first, THEN start to make your modifications.

Oh absolutely, or at least that's the plan. Though if i don't manage to get oscillator 1 working for some reason the filter knob mods would still be worth doing.Originally posted by Enzo View Post
I've got the chip socket in now which was actually more trouble than i was expecting. I've never had to remove a chip from anything other than stripboard so i was worried about ruining the PCB. Also once i'd got it in i realised that some of the component side PCB tracks hadn't connected and the socket was covering them over so i had to bridge them on back. Everything checks out okay, but i'm still waiting for my IC's to arrive. Should have ordered them earlier.Comment

Yes! Result! I got it working!
....well i got it working eventually. When i first stuck the op-amp in the oscillator was still inaudible which i eventually realised was due to the fact that one of the jumpers i had to add in was in the wrong place.
I quickly sorted that out though and now it sounds great! I can finally have a listen to what the factory presets sound like.
Poly800 mods next then and perhaps i'll have a go at my wonky microKorg. Should be fun.
Thanks for everyones advice!
