Roland TR-808 repairs
On the workbench this time is a Roland TR-808. The maracas weren’t sounding too healthy and the snare sounded a little strange. I suspected the noise generator was at fault since this drives both voices. After inspection and some work my suspisions were correct. Now the maracas sound great again and the snare sounds considerably fatter than before the surgery. All in all this 808 now sounds as phat as it should.
Boom-Tish-Boom-Tish!
