Just picked up an old casiotone ct 405 with hopes to repair and sell it. Initially it was pretty busted, had some weird issues with selecting and modifying the sounds and had a very distorted output. After a very thorough clean inside and out, the issues with tone modifiers has been solved due to those flimsy ribbon cables, but cant seem to find the reason why the output sounds distorted. The distortion seems to respond to the volume of the signal (like and actual distortion effect) i.e. the higher polyphony a play the more distorted it become until after about 4 or 5 voices (depending on harmonics) it is just noise. Would love to hear if anyone has had similar issues and/or would know how to fix it. Cheers

So I had been dreaming of buying one of these for a while, finally found one I could afford, some aesthetic wear but seller assured me everything worked. Got it the other day and everything does work apart from the switch that changes between the preset sound banks. So I am very sad as this means half the sounds are inaccessible, and immensely frustrated as I imagine this is quite a simple fix but I am wary of taking the thing apart to have a look. If anyone has any advice or resources (I have had a look through the technical spec you can find but omg it is intimidating!) I would be super grateful =)
