Re: Kawai K1 OS eprom dump

thing is, i'm told by former (?!#waaaah???ship it like *thatttt*?!!) owner
that it worked prior to shipping. yeah that's it, so rip it out of wherever
it was, with MIDI+audio still plugged in, kinda wrap it in cardboard,
and stick that together with tape and call that a ****** parcel.
brilliant.
consider then your item flipflopped in transit through conveyor belts,
and then tossed about by delivering postie.
so the only way to find out is go to someone with a logic probe and
some understanding of that particular IC. otherwise it's any number
of things. seems to be a fragile board, the k1mkII, that's the one
that seems to have the problem. although there's a YT vid of a faulty
k1 - or was that a II as well? i have a k1 keyboard, no problem there,
but i just wanted a rack version, didn't really care if mk1 or 2.
(knock it on for parts to get money back..?)
(or try:
-connecting midi in AND out, next sysex restore (eliminate that)
-disconnect backup battery (still 3.16v) +replace
-upgrade OS?)
