Yeah, it is sad that things like this happen after all they seem to have tracked down replacement drives for nearly every synth out there. Especially sad for me since I have customers on my side that get affected in their turn. I simply have to fork out the money for the drive for my customer from my own pocket as i simply wont let him suffer for something like this. I\ufffdll never go the route 66 way to get a drive again, better research and order from other sources IMO. >From: "Robert Weigel" <sounddoctorin@...> >Reply-To: vintagesynthrepair@yahoogroups.com >To: vintagesynthrepair@yahoogroups.com >Subject: [vintagesynthrepair] Re: Korg DSS1-Disk Drive >Date: Sat, 10 Feb 2007 09:42:00 -0000 > >I'll make note of this and call them when I can.
