i also think i am the first person to actually cut pin connections and re-route them, i was able to unlock a glitch language by one on the synth chip
any chance of showing what pins you swapped
I used the speak and spell schematic from casperelectronics, its all in the grid. theres maybe 10 pins total. Crossing them causes a letter/button push. EX: Pin 2+6 = letter g
so i cut the ribbon cable, found wire 1 and wire 2, and soldered the bends to it (this involves completely removing keyboard functions from the toy, so you have to attach a pushbutton to the "on" wires)
But its all good, it functions nicely, i have a nice "unleash" button that activates the "on" pins.
I only did this because the original keyboard functions are now completely broken, so i carefully soldered them to the ribbon cable. Not only that, but now the entire keyboard is free and i can add an LFO soon, just be careful not to cut the in-keyboard grid connectors
