Roland S-50 - 2nd Keyboard strip down and rebuild part 2 - Restoration Part 12

Part 12 of the Roland S-50 restoration. This video continues on from Part 11 where I am now rebuilding the key bed. The previous video stopped at the re-installation of the key bed circuit. This video complete the key bed re-build ready for re-installation into the Roland S-50 chassis. This video again like Part 11 mostly runs fast and shows me again re-building the key bed to the point it can be re-installed. Just slow it down to understand specific elements. Background I acquired the Roland S-50 a few years ago after I had been on the hunt for a low-fi sampler. This fitted the bill sampling at 12-bits. Not only is the Roland S-50 a fairly useable sampler, Roland and many other software / sampling vendors also crafted sample sets for both this and the Roland S-550 / Roland S-330 platforms. When acquired there were a few problems. Apart from the sampler being filthy, some keys either did't work or work intermittently and the screen randomly choose not to work. What I didn't know when I started this project was how involved it would get!
