Re: [DTXpress] Yamaha factory service

2015-12-23 by JDBlackhawk

Hello from Milford, pa just north and east of northern nj about 20 miles from Port Jervis NY. I am fairly tech savvy for an amateur but these dtxtremes are extremely troublesome to repair apparently! Now I have 2 I can't unravel and I'm usually pretty handy with soldering, multimeter's just shy of eprom burners and oscilloscopes. I've rebuilt 2 RM1X machines and done a few keyboard repairs. If you know of any trustworthy competent techs around I will ship or bring in anywhere within my driving territory.

Sigh.....anybody have any experience with getting
DTX stuff repaired from Yamaha factory service? Good, bad,
indifferent. Looks like the old DTXtreme I've posted
about here has to go that route, but I don't want to
send it unless I get some user group opinions here first.
I've had a few bad experiences with musical instrument
technical repair services, not Yamaha but supposedly
"professional" repair technicians who could not
get the job done with 2 keyboards I ended up repairing
myself. Thanks and happy holidays.
