Re: [emax] Re: E-MU EMAX 1000 Keyboard problem / No sound from outputs.

open up the machine and make sure the cable is connected correctly

now if you have no audio at all then you need and oscilloscope to check the digital data from the echip for the output channels for the dacs

also check that the keyboard is connected correctly

try using and external midi keyboard to trigger it as if the scanner chip is faulty for the keyboard it wont trigger it

not all sound disks have sequences

are you sure that one has sequences

Ok, I added Grand Piano bank to OS disk... System is loading correctly, bank too. Ive got about 30 presets to choose but when im loading any there is no sound. I checked special menu for disabled channels and there is no disabled ones. I recalibrate volume slider so im sure lowest value is the lowest and highest is the highest. Im checking my outputs with Audiotechnica headphones ATH-M40fs through all outputs and nothing. Keyboard sending midi notes as well. When im loading sequences from that Grand Piano bank and pressing play there is no sound. When im plugging 1/4 TRS Connector of headphones to the outputs i hear characteristic sound crackles (like in other vintage audio gear). What can i say more... floppy drive is not original one.


Thank you very much Jammie for your advices.
