I have been looking around for a service manual for a TR626 does anyone have any service information, schematics??
I am willing to pay a small fee. By the end of the week i will have two of these units, one is tip top the other powers up but gives no sound. I have been told that someone had previously attemted to bend the machine and did some damage.

ok i might be late to the party but this thing is impressive.. hats off! djeezus..

i like the mixture in your YouTube account as well - you do play the piano a LOT better than most people i know.
who said musicians wouldn't be interested in circuitbent toys?
