Never saw a cr2032 leak. Like, ever. Aside from looking ugly that seems like a reasonable mod to me..

Very very old ones can. They can become nasty Have you opened your SC-55 to check the battery inside?. I got rid of them on all my Roland devices. One had started leaking but hadn't done any damage yet.

On another note, I ordered two X2GS 's yesterday. Both with your preset installed. You did a fantastic job with it!

Thank you. Looking back at that preset, I think I could have gotten it to better match the real SC-55, but that would involve increasing the bass and reverb at the expense of making the overall sound significantly muddier. And that is what the SC-55 sounds like to me, muddy. I honestly don't appreciate that. Modules like the Yamaha MU50XG and SC-88 are a clear step above the SC-55 in my book.

Regardless, I don't actually own an SC-55. I only own an SD-35, which this preset is actually based on. It uses the same instrument rom, but sounds significantly cleaner than the SC-55:

It is probably a newer design and maybe it has different filtering or a different reverb. The same is true for the SC-88 as well for example - that module also sounds a lot cleaner to my ears (How I would love to own one..) Anyway, to my ears it sounds nearly spot on for the SD-35 and I am told that also holds for the SCC-1. I'm glad you appreciate it.
