Re: [k5synth] upgrade ?'s

2004-05-27 by Antoine DeschĂȘnes

I've got 1.0 and I remember to have heard that but I don't know how to 
fix it.
Maybe changing to 1.2 will fix this or maybe resetting the K5 will work
(My K5 was full of bugs because I was doing MIDI and often forgot to
turn protect to on while playing sounds).

Hi, new member here. I just got my K5 and I have a few
questions about it I'd like to ask. First, mine has the v1.0 OS and
I was wondering if anyone knew in detail what the v1.1/1.2
EPROM upgrades specifically fix. I'm gonna upgrade to 1.2
anyway, but I was just curious. Second, has anyone with the 1.0
OS run into what I would describe as random re-triggering of the
voices? What happens is that every once in a while when I'm
playing, if I strike a key the K5 will play the note, but right away re-
trigger the note for a split-second, then trigger it again like
normal. It sounds like a short "blip" or glitch usually, but
sometimes it'll have some release to it -- kinda like when you
switch patches while holding a sustained note and you can hear
the settings reset to the new patch. Sorry if this makes no sense,
but it's a bit tricky to explain without you hearing it. Anyway, I'd say
it's not a dirty keyboard 'cause it's really random as to what keys
it will happen with and there doesn't seem to be any repeat
offenders that stand out like you would expect. Also, it happens
fairly infrequently, but enough to cause some concern that
something isn't right -- maybe once every 100-150 notes played,
sometimes sooner. I haven't had the time yet to hook it up via
MIDI to see if it will happen when controlling another board, or
when being controlled, but personally I think it's a glitch or bug in
the 1.0 OS since I read somewhere that newer versions fixed
"clicks" or something of that nature. Has anyone here had any
similar experiences, and if so, what was the cause? Sorry for the
long post, thanks for your help! :)

Eric
