I dropped a wieght on my juno. I had opend it to clean it and left it in the corner. I was cleaning out the closet and a weight fell on The main board got a hairline split at the top severing a few leads, and now half the buttons don't work. I tried clamping the board across the split and it worked for about a minute and now those buttons are gone. All the sliders work, but all the crutial editing , like poly, wave, and bank are fucked. I could probably program my o1v to send those but i would prefer finding a dead synth with a good board and swap them. Do you now of any parts dealers that buy scraped synths for parts?

you could truy tracing the split tracks from A to B and soldering a wire conection between the two points instead?

good idea. I thought about that too last night, and went in and did just that. Luckily all the ones split come from one plug with plenty of wire. I un-fastened the platic holding it's wire and fed the wires to the proper positions. i am going to take it to a to a repair shop and have them solder the five leads. Shouldn't cost to much. it's only about five minutes of work. I already did the hard part. It will probablly be cheaper than buying a soldering iron.They work now taped in place. so soldering them on permanantly is all that's left. I hope the crack in the board doesn't spread. should i put some super glue or apoxy on the crack?
