Title: would someone with a ehx pedal with the 1024 chip do me...
Post by: marrstians on March 27, 2004, 10:30:49 PM
a favor? i have a broken deluxe memory man and i don't really have a way to check and see if one or more of the chips are broken... they are in sockets and i wanted to see if i could send them to someone and they'd throw them in their pedal one at a time and see if they work... let me know if you could do it for me...

Is the thing working at all?  Are any of the components at all visibly damaged?  Are any of the wires torn off?  Are any of the PCB traces cut?

If you answered no to the preceding questions, then it could be a chip, and you should probably just buy a few to have them around anyways :)

i just don't want to spend 60 if i don't have to... plus if they are gone would putting new ones in make them blow? i just don't want to hear the toilet flush.............

It could, yes.  This guy's been selling these chips for a while on ebay, they end for maybe $2 a chip.  E-mail him and offer $10 shipped for 4, he might just do it.
