Step 1
#ENTERING TEST MODE & INITIAL SETTINGS
-Hold KEY TRANSPOSE, turn on your JUNO-106 and release KEY TRANSPOSE.
*The display should now show '-_'. This means that your JUNO-106 is now in'test mode'.

Step 4
#NOISE TEST:
-Set NOISE to 10.
-Play a few notes.
*You should hear noise (and noise only) from all voices.
*If you hear constant noise without playing a key, then you have one or more hanging VCA's.
*If you hear no noise at all, then you have a dead noise generator. There is only one noise generator.

-Set NOISE back to 0.

set SUB to 10:
-Play a few notes.
*You should hear sound from all voices.
*If any of the above failed for a voice
then that voice has a broken wave generator chip.
*If you have a hanging note, then play some different notes with any wave form.
When the pitch of the hanging note changes, then the voice you last played has
a broken VCA.
-Set SUB back to 0.

Step 6
