Vintage Model D Issue

Currently, she's sustaining notes indefinitely in a couple of different circumstances.

Circumstance #1: With the decay switch OFF, if the decay knob is set to zero, the last note pressed on keyboard will sustain indefinitely. When I advance the decay knob to a longer time, the sustain will decrease and disappear. Everything else (knobs/switches/keys) behave like they should.

Circumstance #2: With the decay switch ON, the last note pressed on the keyboard will sustain indefinitely, regardless of decay knob position. Everything else (knobs/switches/keys) behave like they should.

Both circumstances occur with or without the keybed assembly plugged in, so I would assume its not a key contact/buss bar issue.

Thoughts?

I guess you missed the word "Vintage" in the subject? I don't think Moog is going to troubleshoot a vintage Mini. I would contact Chris Hewitt at chris@thisoldsynth.com he's an expert at vintage Mini repairs.

Thanks Doug, I was kind of scratching my head at that one!

I'll shoot Chris an email - I've been eyeballing the optokey setup anyways...
