    Lately my Kurzweil PC2X keyboard (v. 3.00 OS) has spontaneously and
    unpredictably been making my sounds go 100% wet reverb. I've tried a
    hard reset with no success. I have to re-select the program to get it
    back to normal, but at some point it will again go back to pure
    reverb. Very frustrating! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Wow! I get that same problem, particularly with the Piano.
    I would press the PANIC button and it would reset the effect problem.
    I've noticed that if I power up my keyboard and have it "warm up" so to
    speak, the problem will not occur. So basically, it only occurs "randomly"
    when the keyboard has just been turned on.

    If you noticed, it never occurs in the MIDI SETUPS mode, nor the KB3.

    That's all I got.

    I talked to tech support and they got it! It was dirt & crud in the
    A,B,C,D faders that control reverb amount. When they were cleaned out
    and worked back and forth, that solved the problem! Crazy, but it
    worked. Thanks, Alex.
