Sequential Circuits Prophet 5

This instrument had numerous power rail shorts, component failures in the power supply, poorly executed previous repairs, and a very noisy transformer. All parts in the power supply were replaced, including a new toroidal transformer, resistors, capacitors and multi-turn trim pots. The +5v regulator was replaced with a switching device from muRata, and the +5v rail was reworked to eliminate the voltage drop diodes. TVS diodes were added to each power rail for protection, and all tantalum capacitors not in the audio path were replaced.
Imagine the possibilities.
