New schematics - Boss MT2 Metal Zone at GodiksenNet

[The Red Rooster]

Many thanks to Mr. Edward R. Jones who mailed me his scans of his manual of this great box and asked me to publish them on my site.

I'm very glad to present these scans in the schematic section at:

www.GodiksenNet.com

Thanks. I think that schematic is probably the most trustworthy of the ones I have seen.  :wink:

Thanks for the schemo!

Did you notice the 'scanned by [reverse engineers]'  'group logo' thing on each scan?

That's probably called "schematicwarez"  :-)

There must be an IRC channel called  #schemoz or #schemowarez where scannerz (analogous to crackerz or h4ckerZ before) get their Day-Zero schematics the moment they leave the factory... :-)

Yop I know the sch has been tagged by the guy(s) who mail them to me - I promised him to keep the tags.

I somehow don't think IRC was around when these were new

but, it was when I scanned them in.
I had them on here a while ago, and some people got into them.

y'all can upload them to your sites, too!

I purchased these from Roland, they weren't cheap!

Again, yes, tagged. I've had my scans passed off by other people "their own scans" already, which is sad.

I don't mind the hours it takes me to do them, and get them reasonable quality/size so people can print them out and use them. I've only got modest equipment, a cheap scanner and dialup internet, so, I can't work miracles just yet.

I've scanned in whole synth service manuals, also. I take my work pretty seriously in this area, because I hope people can learn from it, and that if I ever needed anything, people would help me out.

I was a bit disgusted that NO-ONE had scans of the Metal Zone, though.  Some very meritous traces and attempts and back-working them were to be found, but, you can't match the real thing.

I've Zero-Dayed almost all my schematics. The day I get them, I get them into the community. I did that with the Yamaha FB-01 & Dx200 schematics, my Casio synth service manuals, all of it.
I'll do my Rx5 drum machine one day soon, too, if anyone is after it.

I believe sharing is caring.

Red Rooster, the PH3 circuit is not the one you have on your site. I have the PH3 Service notes which I will try to get scanned.

Hi Stephen,

I didn't know that it was the wrong sch for the PH3. I'll remove it right away, and look forward to the scans of the service manual.
