Re: [kawaisynths] K4 Volume Slider...help please

2014-04-05 by <tomlinson6050@...>

Replace the 100uF capacitor on the slider board. Weird. That cap forms the 'ground' for the volume.

Hello all,

I recently purchased a K4.  Good condition, except the volume slider 
does nothing...all sounds seem at maximum volume.

I then replaced the slider with a new one from Syntaur...only the 
slider, as they are out of the complete volume slider assembly.

The new slider still does not affect the volume, but......when all the 
way down, sound from both left and right, but sounds kind of flat or 
monophonic.

When you slide up the volume slider, then the sound starts to separate 
and more stereo effect....weird, yes?

Any suggestions?  Some where, something is messed up.

I can always edit the volume from within each sound, then save the 
patch, but it's not the same...and would like the volume slider to work 
as should.

ANY help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Brian
