Thansk for responding! It has no internal hard drive. I use an external zip drive in the SCSI port. It doesnt have battery memory that I know of, unless there is a lithium battery inside that could be in need of replacing. Do you mean the cable connection inside the machine or the external power cable? Thanks again for your help! -Joe gray <gray@...> wrote: Could be several thing.....but if you have to go in.......plug and unplug and cable connection......does the Emax have battery memory...... does it have hard drive..........bad boot gray

Do you mean the cable connection inside the machine or the external power cable? Yes....If you open it up and any cables that plug into the main board...plug and unplug to make sure the connection is good. I had a reverb that would not fire up was check the battery etc....nothing would happen.....so I unplugged the main board and other item. plug back into the wall and it fired up...the connections on one of the ribbon cables had just stopped making a good connection and needed resetting......this does not mean that's your problem but what a item that old goes into the shop that's the first thing they do is reseat the plugs.....and go from their.....You cant analyze any synth with out knowing that the cables are making contact.......... gray

I have an EmaxII which has apparently had some sort of seizure. If the other stuff does not work you might try a warm bath and some Vicks Vapor rub...on the top of the EmaxII...slow dip it in and out of the tub...making sure that it has a flotation device on it....bake in the oven for a few hours to dry it out and take 2 aspirin and call me in the morning...OK thats a joke. I don't want anyone actually baking their EmaxII g.....
