: Gave us:
:
: And why "**** up
: a perfectly good antique " by ripping the heart and soul out of
: it to replace each key contact set (14, is it) with SCRs... let's see,
: 14x61x2 (great and swell)... 1708 SCRs. Ludicrous.
:
: You obviously have no clue as to the form factors available.
:
: I don't care if you put 300 of them in a package,
: you still have to connect them. Still doesn't change
: the requirement for 1700 some-odd devices.
:
: Also, if you are having your "Cadmium fingers", the ****ing thing
: doesn't function properly to begin with.
:
: Actually, the circuit is so low impedance that it
: *will* function with some shorting going on...
: we installed the TrekII percussion kit (I'm *sure*
: you're familiar with it) and it wouldn't trigger on
: the top harmonic... we had to use the next one
: down. That's when I found out about the fingers...
: you can zap 'em with a charged up capacitor
: if you want, we like the sound of having the top
: harmonic there with perc. so we didn't bother.
:
: Simply switching to platinum contacts would solve it without the
: switch to a low voltage design.
:
: Einstein, it's not the contacts that are cadmium... the
: leaves are cadmium plate. The contacts are self-cleaning,
: as all contacts are... but *you* knew that, right?
:
: If these are antiques, what's a retard like you doing opening them up
: anyway, dip****? You have all the capability of a freshly laid turd.
:
: As we can see, the anal fixation is strong in this
: one.

Crikey, this ****tard Massive throng or whatever, has an even bigger
ego problem than I do :-)
