Failed repair attempt on the SY-1


Published on Jun 6, 2016 organfairy

Thought this was interesting. I always thought circuit board encapsulation was just an outer case. Apparently not.

"Last year I bought a Yamaha SY-1 that unfortunately turned out to be defective - and to add insult to misery the defective circuit board is potted with some black unknown substance.
This video shows my failed attempt to remove this material using acetone.

The music is "June Night" written by Abel Baer and I play it on a selection of toy keyboards from the brand MusicTime."
