1. buy a 3.3kOhm resistor (small series) - (cost: 11c - ok, an expensive shop....)
2. put the V5 onto a clean table
3. pull all the drawbars out to the max
4. unscrew the small black philips screw at the back and on both sides
5. Pull off the knobs
6. unscrew the line out nut and washer
7. lift off the cover - you can see the upper board now
8. locate the four silverish philips screws. Screw them out.
9. lift out the board and turn it round. Watch for the white washers between the board!!! They are needed for proper alignment!
10. Locate R35 - well marked on the board, you will find it at the front of the 7th and 8th drawbar
11. Solder the 3.3kOhms resistor on top of R35
12. The reassembly starts here.... after some fiddling I worked out, that the easiest way to do it is by putting the drwabars and faders to their max positions. Check well for aligment! Don't forget the white washers between the boards! Then turn the board and put it back in position. Shake the whole unit a bit until the board comes not just close but fits with the case - and try every single drawbar.
13. repeat step 12 until all drawbars work well
14. screw in the 4 silverish philips screws
15. Put the orange cover back on top, put the knobs back onto their
pots, screw the side and back screws in
16. Enjoy the upgrade!!!! It is well worth it!
17. Repeat 16 as often as possible!
