SD1 STILL GOING OUT OF TUNE AND WEIRD THINGS TOO

SD1 STILL GOING OUT OF TUNE AND WEIRD THINGS TOO

2004-10-16 by homebythe_sea

Hi ,

I am still having trouble with my sd1. I sprayed contact cleaner on 
the data slider, volume control and the mod and pitch wheels. 

I set the pitch bend to 0 and when doing so I noticed the parameters 
were changing rapidly and by them selves. It seemed to me that a 
data slider or button is throwing out the change commands.

I cant be sure but I think the data slider is the culprit. Does 
anyone know of a way to disable it?

I have a gig next week, and im screwed so far.

Thanks
Rich

I Had A Similar Problem With An Ensoniq SQ2. I Connect It Into A 
Sequencer And Record All The Changes It Did By itself.
I Think It Could Be A Failure In The Sensor Chip, Not The Contact 
Itself =(
Take It To the Doctor!

RE: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] SD1 STILL GOING OUT OF TUNE AND WEIRD THINGS TOO

It doesn't sound like pitch bend, per se - its probably the modulation
wheel.  Try this test...
 
Try moving the mod wheel up&down - is this changing the pitch?  If so, you
can disable it by changing where it says *MOD* to "OFF" in all the voices in
the patch you are using? Then save the patch.
 
That should do it from my experience.
