Hi Just servicing a CS50, and it's constantly outputting a whine of about 4120Hz. Unit came to me a bit battered as the PSU had shaken loose and trashed a few things inside. PSU PCB had become cracked, so replaced that with a working one purchased from Synthparts. Recapped the new PCB before I fitted it. I've done the usual, changed the logic on the KAS board and the S/H board, replaced power decoupling caps throughout etc. The only difference is that originally it took a minute or so to manifest... now it manifests immediately. I can see the signal on all power lines. Any thoughts? B ?

are all 3 fuses intact?

Only two fuses on the CS50. Voltages are all there, but there's this signal sitting on top of them. Synth works fine other than the whine, and a duff LFO chip.
Thinking it's got to be a duff semiconductor/ IC on the PSU :-(

Can you remove the supply, give it all needed dummy loads, and or short sense lines to their respective power lines? Then you can determine if it is strictly from the supply, or a function of the load inducing a resonant freq, or other anomaly. I assume you have a scope. Tim

I don't have a dummy load unfortunatley,?but did short the sense lines?and look at it. Seemed to be OK, but might need to run it for a while to let it warm up first.
Might just be that something's beginning to fail under load. Just really annoying that it's showing up on all the power lines. Might have a chance to look at it further today, but have a MonoPoly to tune, and a Prophet 5 to diagnose over at a clients.

dummy load may become pivotal in determining the source of the issue. Alternatively, of course, you could substitute another source of power if available, and i don't mean another cs50 supply, I mean ANY other capable source.? Given the whine's prevalence on the power lines, you might also want to disconnect the juice to the voice cards all at once and see if
it's still being heard, just to further rule out stuff. Btw, I have found a 150, just haven't had time to check it yet. good luck Tim

Yeah, disconnecting stuff was going to be my next thing. I do have another CS50 , but the PSU has been modded and the connections are different. Otherwise that would've been the quickest solution. Will check out what I need for dummy loads as well. Not sure what the current consumption is on the different lines.?
Keep me posted about the 150

being heard, just to further rule out stuff.
Btw, I have found a 150, just haven't had
time to check it yet.
good luck

Seemed to be OK, but might need to
run it for a while to let it warm up
first.
Might just be that something's
beginning to fail under load. Just
really annoying that it's showing up
on all the power lines. Might have a
chance to look at it further today,
but have a MonoPoly to tune, and a
Prophet 5 to diagnose over at a
clients.

Can you
remove the supply,
give it all needed
dummy loads, and or
short sense lines to
their respective
power lines? Then
you can determine if
it is strictly from
the supply, or a
function of the load
inducing a resonant
freq, or other
anomaly. I assume
you have a scope.

Only two
fuses on the
CS50.
Voltages
are all there,
but there's
this signal
sitting on top
of them.
Synth
works fine
other than the
whine, and a
duff LFO chip.
Thinking
it's got to be
a duff
semiconductor/
IC on the PSU
:-(

Hi
Just servicing
a CS50, and
it's
constantly
outputting a
whine of about
4120Hz.
Unit came to
me a bit
battered as
the PSU had
shaken loose
and trashed a
few things
inside.
PSU PCB had
become
cracked, so
replaced that
with a working
one purchased
from
Synthparts.
Recapped the
new PCB before
I fitted it.
I've done the
usual, changed
the logic on
the KAS board
and the S/H
board,
replaced power
decoupling
caps
throughout
etc.
The only
difference is
that
originally it
took a minute
or so to
manifest...
now it
manifests
immediately.
I can see the
signal on all
power lines.
Any thoughts?
