Vintage Synth Repair

Hi John

I've dealt with Casio several times here in the UK and found them easy and
reasonably priced.  They will do spares and schematics.  I would try them
first.

help

 

  

Hi all,

I've been mostly a lurker on this group for a long time... its a great
group. I've learned quite a bit about the vintage synths that I do have, but
I have a question about a non-vintage keyboard that I recently acquired.
It's a Casio Privia PX-330. I do some work for film projects, and
occasionally need a lightweight full sized keyboard with internal sound for
meetings, etc.

I acquired the keyboard with existing damage to the top of the keyboard
casing. One of the function buttons was pressed below the keyboard casing.
I'm not a keyboard tech... but am a computer tech. I pulled the keyboard
apart, and there is a damaged board with a number of tac switches on it. The
board has a hairline crack running through it, and only 1 function/tac
switch on the board appears to work. I'd like to replace the board. The
numbers on the board are M901-CNA1 A and N40A35B5 A30C5/A3C7/C7.

If anyone knows how I can obtain one new or used, it would be greatly
appreciated. Functions on this board (primarily sequencer and rhythm
functions) do not work. But the rest of the keyboard is fully functional. On
the other hand, if this board can somehow be repaired, that might also be an
option.

Thanks very much.

John
