Really excellent work ... I've recapped many of my synths but I've stayed away from CMOS chips (ANY chips for that matter)... maybe I'll get brave and try and do a complete service one day ... great job 🙂
Thanks!
Great video. Mine is also a BA662 version. In these early units there’s an issue where the LFO will leak into the audio output when the filter mod amount is set high and LFO speed is audio rate. Have you noticed this in your unit? Cheers.
