. . As announced, the following to the previous post: a short video showing that the pitch-shifted sound comes out of this H949 again! 😊☺️ . @eventideaudio @eventidefrance @eventideitalia . #Eventide #EventideInc #EventideAudio #Harmonizer #H949Harmonizer #EventideH949 #EventideHarmonizer #EventideH949Harmonizer #VintageDigitalPitchShifter #VintageHarmonizer #VintageDigitalFXBox #EarlyDigital #Repair #Fix #VintageElectronicsRepair #StudioPiscineATokyo #PiscineATokyo #TheGoodDoctorPrager #LeBonDocteurPrager https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp9QCpUFzKd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1586hdt01nr47

. . A rather simple fix for a somewhat complex problem... . After having solved the +5V supply issue (see prev. post: tired diode bridge replaced with thermal paste added, as well as corresponding Molex connector redone, and reservoir caps replaced too) now this much loaded supply rail is clean and rock-solid 👌 . But there was still no sound coming out of the unit. Researches showed that was due to the rather "strange" path for the signal controlling the outputs of the FIFO chips (the ones mainly responsible for the pitch-shifting effect): this machine had a late revision board that prevented these chips to be activated, EVER!!! 🤔🤔🤔🤔 . I might have been missing something there, though there were absolutely NO evidence of any hand-made modification to any board re. this path... And, believe me, I DID check, recheck, double-and triple-check! But, until I discover why the Eventide engineers did reroute this control signal in this (undocumented and) weird way, after having scratched my f*cking head some full hours long, I decided to go back to the original, earlier board revisions' path with this technically very simple fix: it only involved removing a diode, lifting one chip's pin, and soldering it with a wire jumper to the anode pad of the former diode. . ...and the audio now comes out of the machine again!!! 👍👍👍 (see next Insta post 😉) . @eventideaudio @eventidefrance @eventideitalia . #Eventide #EventideInc #EventideAudio #Harmonizer #H949Harmonizer #EventideH949 #EventideHarmonizer #EventideH949Harmonizer #VintageDigitalPitchShifter #VintageHarmonizer #VintageDigitalFXBox #EarlyDigital #Repair #Fix #VintageElectronicsRepair #StudioPiscineATokyo #PiscineATokyo #TheGoodDoctorPrager #LeBonDocteurPrager https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp9MFpSludT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t53vh369l1z5

Fourth H949 emergency: already found one bad guy, in the A/D section. Was preventing the sampled input signal to reach the PWM-to-Binary converter when in Keyboard mode... #Eventide #H949 #EventideH949 #Harmonizer #H949Harmonizer #EventideHarmonizer #VintageDigitalPitchShifter #VintageHarmonizer #VintageDigitalFXBox #VintageDigitalDelayLine #EarlyDigital #Repair #StudioPiscineATokyo #TheGoodDoctorPrager
