Intermittent reset. (cont.)
R28 (reset threshold) is wrong value. (Revision
AQ only).
Add another 3K resistor in parallel (see section
7.17).
Other faulty component is 8031 reset circuit.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
No sound at all.
Faulty DM3AG ASIC, PCM-54 DAC, 4052
analog switch, or op-amp.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Faulty volume slider.
Test AUX outs. Repair as necessary.
User error (i.e. drum pads set to wrong
outputs, volumes set to )etc.).
Check operating parameters.
No sound from a particular drum.
User error (i.e. drum pads set to wrong
outputs, volumes set to )etc.). This is
particularly noticeable on drums that panned
hard left or right (TOM 1 and TOM 3 of the
default drum kit).
Check operating parameters. Adjust them as
necessary.
Dirty, or broken cliff (1/4") jack. This is
particularly noticeable on drums that panned
hard left or right (TOM 1 and TOM 3 of the
default drum kit).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary. (see
section 7.3)
Faulty Analog switch.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Faulty op-amp (U20, U21) or component in
surrounding circuitry.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Component failure in keypad circuitry. (This is
actually fairly rare, but it can happen).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary. (see
section 3.3)
Intermittent buttons.
Old keypad PC Board.
Replace with new style keypad PC board and
retest.
Dirty rubber keypad.
Clean keypad contacts with non-residue
cleaner (such as Blue Shower).
Faulty ribbon cable.
Replace and retest.
No (or intermittent) MIDI out.
Needs MIDI pullup resistor.
Add if necessary (see section 7.7).
Faulty Transistor (Q1 or Q2).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Faulty 8031.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
No (or intermittent) MIDI in.
Faulty opto-isolator (U4).
Replace and retest.
Threshold resistor (R5) wrong value.
See section 7.6.
Faulty 8031.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
No tape out.
Broken 1/8" jack (J6).
Replace and retest.
User error.
See section 5.3.
Faulty 8031.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
No tape in.
Broken 1/8" jack (J5).
Replace and retest.
User error.
See section 5.3.
Faulty 8031.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Faulty integrator capacitor (C11 or C23).
Replace and retest.
Faulty comparator (U1).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Data slider not working at all.
Faulty slide potentiometer.
Replace and retest.
Broken wire between slider and keypad PC
board.
Faulty ADC circuit. (Usually if this is the case,
the keypad velocity will not work either.)
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary. (see
section 5.2)
Faulty 8031.
Replace and retest.
Data slider skipping numbers.
Faulty ADC circuit. (most likely a short or open
in the binary weighted resistor network).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary. (see
section 5.2)
Foot switches not working.
Broken cliff (1/4") jack.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Faulty 8031.
Replace and retest.
Not retaining memory when power removed.
(No battery backup. Battery is dead.)
Faulty SRAM bypass capacitor (blue
monoblock type).
Replace capacitor and battery. Check battery
current (see section 2.1).
Faulty or incorrect SRAM.
See section 2.1.
SRAM not in standby mode while power off
(CE pin 20 not held high).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
Faulty battery.
Replace capacitor and battery. Check battery
current (see section 2.1).
Not retaining memory when power removed.
(No battery backup. Battery is not dead.)
Faulty reset circuit (not going into reset during
power down).
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.

and
repair as necessary.
Faulty 8031, EPROM, or SRAM.
Open or short in address or data busses.
Troubleshoot and repair as necessary.
