  1. Solina String Ensemble MkII issue tracking. A lot of work on top of the usual recapping because of the Bass Circuit board being populated with a blend of MkII and MkIII resistor values. A total mess and I guess the bass section stopped working in 1993 when the net voltage was raised from 220 to 230V. The #Solina #Strings have an unregulated PSU so the main point is to get voltages to spec or certain transistors will fail.

  2. I’m not usually happy to have Behringer instruments, although I do have a few utilities at home and in my studio. It’s more about their attitude and less about the fact they clone synths, which I don’t think is a problem necessarily. This one however is an instrument I could not pass on. It’s just so much fun to play [anything ‘70s]! It’s pretty limited but for what it does is fantastic and spot on to the original. #solina #arp #bodegraven #eminent #clone
