I checked out your second vid, the missing notes seem unrealted, so again I suspect resistance wires inside the manual loom have corroded through. The only other fault is the drawbars will need cleaned. A VERY easy job, it involves removing the rail with the tabs and then opening the drawbar enclosure and cleaning and relubing.

If you feel like a little DIY, let me know and we'll dig out the procedures for cleaning drawbars, repairing the manual looms and cleaning the gooey foam out of there.

The job inside the manuals is not HARD on a T series but it will take an evening or two and will need some space to spread out, so you can put all the layers you remove within reach.

I'd recommend doing the Carsten Meyer mod for the percussion too. I love the reiterating Banjo sound though! I've got a Mike Oldfield show which has a very similar sound on it as an effect in quite a classy way (though it's syncopated), and of course, a fistful of those notes gives you an Authentic "Six Million Dollar Man" arm action sound.

Heya Papus!
I know you're looking into the M100, but I finally got onto video three.
The drawbars need cleaning. Your reverb works a good deal more strongly than mine and the vibrato sounds fine. It does sound sort of choppy but I wouldn't bother looking into it cos it's not so bad. The vibrato's sounding quite strong, though it'll probably sound milder through the leslie. I've done a variety of mods to the chorus of mine over the years, maybe to the other tabs, I'd have to look. I find I often like the milder settings, never straight vibrato.

Video four, I can't really comment on the key click and percussion, because mine have been modified a long way from stock. The M100 will have those perfect without modifying anything, so there may be no need for you to try the mods.

I've got the T sounding very VERY close to the C3 now, which I have going through the same leslie for comparison purposes.
The key click and percussion sound a little different on micro examination, but then each console sounds a little different from the next too.
