Yes, it's trying to read from RAM and it gets garbage in and crashes.

I've seen these fail before that's why I wanted to see the signals because I was already pretty sure this was the problem.

I won the bet.  :lol:

Thank you so much MarshallJMP!!!

Is this the correct part to order?

The only number thats different is the "549". On the original part it says "741". Will that make a difference?

Just want to be sure before I buy:

(Pfffff....WHO came first???) Too true my friend and it was a really good prototype  :lol: .  That's a bit unfair though, the MP-1 totally changed my world, I've hardly used my '73 Marshall 50 since I bought my first MP-1 which I loved dearly and used for many years.  When MP-2 came I bought one as soon as I could, I love the extra features, they do sound quite different though.  One of my MP-1s seems to have similar issues to andtimebegins, hopefully my tech can read this post and it will help get it sorted.  My other MP-1 works but has midi issues changing programs  :facepalm: .  I must say when I first got them both and tried them out, albeit quite quickly, I had a good measure of nostalgia and wanted access to those tones again.

ADA did great stuff in the '80s and '90s.
Starting from the original MP1, through the Classic and MP2.
That's just a matter of taste.

I personally prefer the direct, raw tone of the original MP1...but you've to know it was the very first tube MIDI preamp I could afford (used from a friend) when I was 20.
I forgot those stuff for decades, and when I started back to collect rack stuff....the ADA MP1 has been like coming back home.
I know, I'm not very objective...  :lol: :lol: :lol:

I really want our friend andtimebegins to have his MP1 alive again.
About yours...you could suggest the same fix to your tech. Why not? Easy and not expensive. No risk.

Well, bad news guys.... it didn't work.

I ordered 2 of the same chip. Both with the same results as before.

MarshallJMP would there be something else I could try? I appreciate your help so far, I feel like we are very close to getting this fixed.

Oh that's to bad, put in the new ic and do the measurement again, see if the results are the same on the scope.
