I=E2=80=99m looking for an EE/tech who will consult with me via email in my a=
ttempt to connect a =E2=80=9Cslave=E2=80=9D Akai AX60 to a =E2=80=9Cmaster=E2=
=80=9D AX60 in the same manner that you can run an Akai Sampler (S612 or S70=
0) into an AX60 to combine the sampler=E2=80=99s voice with the AX60=E2=80=99=
s single osc pre-CEM3394 filtering. Of course I=E2=80=99m happy to pay this p=
erson for their time.=20

Of course previous knowledge of the AX60 and/or S612 would be a bonus, but I=
 don=E2=80=99t think it=E2=80=99s at all necessary for someone who has the e=
lectronics understanding that I lack. I am able to follow schematics (in a r=
udimentary, signal-path kinda way), find components on a circuit board, and m=
y soldering skills are decent. The two AX60=E2=80=99s are recently refurbish=
ed (all key contacts and slider pots disassembled and cleaned, all switches r=
eplaced and power supplies outputting proper voltages), and are ready for co=
upling.=20

I=E2=80=99ve gone over the AX60 schematics, the S612 schematics, and the CEM=
3394 datasheet, and can see numerous places from which I access the voices f=
rom the =E2=80=9Cslave=E2=80=9D AX60, and numerous points to which I can int=
roduce those voices into my =E2=80=9Cmaster=E2=80=9D AX60, but I don=E2=80=99=
t have the EE understanding to make an informed decision as to which option w=
ill make the most sense (or simply work). I=E2=80=99ll save further details o=
f my thoughts for my lucky collaborator.=20

Please let me know if you, or anyone you know, could be the right person for=
 the job. Feel free to share with any other group/list you think might make s=
ense - I=E2=80=99m no longer a member of sdiy or muffs for precisely the sam=
e reason I need help with this project. ;)

Cheers,
James
