Hi

I've just purchased a Matrix 1000 and thought I'd join the list as I
have a couple of questions.

Firstly, I've noticed that the power supply makes a lot of noise. I
wondered whether this was common with the matrix 1000 and, if so,
whether anybody knows where I could get a (quieter) replacement part

Secondly, I opened up the unit (to investigate the noisy psu) and
found that the main board has been modified slightly. Basically the
chip next to the timers, which I believe handles midi communication
(according to the information on this page:
http://wolzow.mindworks.ee/analog/m1k.htm) , has a wire soldered
between one of its legs and the legs of another chip next to it.
Doesn't seem to affect the unit in any way but I was curious as to
why it's there. Anyone have any ideas

Regards,

Rob
