Noisy sound

2013-07-21 by klindblo

Dear All, 

I have experienced very strange behaviour from my An1x the last 4 months.

- The sound is messed up (noise, crakling type.. or sound lost)
- Some keys are not responding (repeated pattern of keys), but may respond on certain velocities
- The noise or lost sound is almost always on the 2nd voice engine only (half polyphony for single sounds or missing 2nd part for dual).

This may have started as I opened it to fix a broken key (which I succeeded with..)

I have opened the unit again trying to locate any loose cables or similar, but haven't succeeded.

Giving the An1x a hit from top solves the issue temporarilly.

Anyone have any ideas?
I really love this synth and would really like to fix this.

Very Best Regards, 
Kristofer Lindblom, 
Sweden
