Today I am going to service a Roland RS-09 having some issues. I'm going to
address the tactile button actuator assembly
troubleshooting the dead button panel circuit
address some metal panel rust
replace some felt dust filters for fader pots
deal with the rickety plastic rivet fasteners for the front panel.
Lots of fun stuff.
