Re: [kawaisynths] k1rII fault ?

2016-01-02 by domgoold@...

update: i tried a different K1 PSU that i know to be good, no difference,
so that's ruled out. stll making horrible glitchy sounds(some are quite
good but..not what i want)

no reply from kawai tech yet.

so next step is disassembly+examination.

if it's one of these big ICs, that's bad news. what could be done there?
or do i just flog it for parts? great shame, it's in such good condition.

wonder if the modern day midibox whizz's could do anything with a
digital synthesizer like this?

first want to try to get some normal behaviour out of it, it is useless
like this :(
