Thanks again for that Bob.. unfortunately I am one of those Tony discusses in that post and we tried all of that stuff. At this point I'm just waiting for my little oscilloscope to arrive in the mail to measure pin 6 on the Z80 (I'll be careful). I ordered a scope piece of hardware that connects via bluetooth to my android phone. I'm hoping it works well. My buddy wouldn't let me borrow his and I'm not hauling my board over there.
In the mean time (not that it will matter in the long run) I'm puzzled as to why my memory functions are all the sudden not working on my stock chipset. I can change patches but the sound is completely wack. I can also load my tape backup from before I installed the MIDI kit and the sounds load but they are completely crazy. Manual mode works fine. If I save something to memory it appears to work as the patch will audibly change when written over but the sound that comes out is thing and crazy with super slow attack. Really weird.
Sincerely,
Rich Clarke
