Has anyway experienced this with a VFXSD?

Has anyway experienced this with a VFXSD?

2004-04-17 by homebythe_sea

Hi,

My VFX SD does a strange thing, every once in a while it just makes 
a quick blast of notes, on what sounds like many different 
instruments.

It happens very rarely, but it sounds like someone just slammed a 
bunch of keys down all at once.

Any ideas what is causing it?

Other than that it plays fine.

I had one of the first VFXsd's. It did the same thing. It eventually stopped working altogether. I'm not sure but this problem may be the infamous MOLEX connector problem. I would email thesoniq.com and ask him if he also thinks this is the Molex problem, and find out if he does the soldering fix for it.
I have done buisiness with The before. He's good.

Yep.  It was usually piano sounding, for me.  It's probably the keyboard
connector or a cold solder joint.  Do you know if the keyboard connector has
been bypassed?

Actualy, I seem to remember my VFXsd doing this every once in a 
while before I changed out the battery.  Ever since I changed that 
battery, though, I've had really no problems at all.  You might try 
that (cheap and easy fix) but don't rule out any of the other wisdom 
on here.  = )

God Bless,

Ben
