REF 02 / Common faults

Noisy pots, dead keys, drifting oscillators. Bring it in.

Crackling sliders, keys that stay silent, voices that wander off pitch, power supplies that hum and screens that have given up. If it once made a sound, we will find out why it stopped.

Tested, calibrated and played before it goes home.
