Hello,

I have good news my Chroma has life again! I think there was a bad ground somewhere. The unit now turns on but does not play. The buttons function and all of the buttons respond properly. I don't hear the button "pop" when I press them. I figure the memory/programs were lost. So I'm trying to load all using my computer polprog1.wav file.

DETAILS:
I'm using a SoundBlaster F1Tality Music card, main out and can hear the program sounds through the output (cassette sync-in 1/4" interface.) I have tried different volumes, toggling setting #3 on and off, and have not been able to get it to load. The code does appear to be coming through in both left and right channels. I'm not sure if it is a mono or stereo signal anyway. A few times with the volume cranked and #3 off it stopped the load before the end of the sound which was more encouraging than nothing.

FLASHBACKS:
I had immediate flashbacks of listing to that sound, watching the programs load most of the way and fail. I remember how exciting it was when it all worked! So where do I proceed from here? To I try and get the output sound louder?

Thank you in advance for your help!
