Hi,

today, when i've turned on my Juno 106 (was bought 6 months ago and without any problem, until today) I ear some sounds, like if one key is pressed, even I don't touch any key.

When I press any of the bank or patch buttons, I ear the sound of the patch I've pressed, like if one of the keys is stucked and play that sound forever.

When I start trying to play some melody, the stucked note change. If I start playing form the first octave to the last, the stucked sound changes in some notes I play, but never disapear, I allways ear a note eternaly.

can somebody help on this? And there are any way to solve this problem?

Thanks and regards

Sounds like the infamous Juno 106 voice chip problem...

Have you tried testing the voice chips individually?

The test procedure and the voice chip replacement procedure is detailed here.

I had 4 chips go and although I am handy with a soldering iron I chose to have them done by a pro. There's a chap in Stoke on Trent (UK only) who is brilliant. If you need his details please let me know.
