Re: Gravitar missing some sounds

If it's not the POKEYs, then maybe the chip enable signals to each POKEY? Do both banks of DIPs register correctly? I/O1 (for B3) and I/O0 (for C/D3) come from the ROM at R2.

If I knew specifically which of the two POKEY's generates which specific sounds then I could be more specific as to which POKEY or opamp is most likely at fault.
