I'm testing a friends K2600. Its got just one key with a Velocity switching issue. It don't work! Its just quiet, just enough to be noticeable, but it is surely a real Velocity switching issue. He said its a new issue and he has not used the synth in 3 months, (bought a Yamaha for touring) Any way, Will a Q-tip fix this? I need to act fact. I offered him $1100 for the K2600, orchestra card and CD ROM and two Zip disc's. Also, if it has a CD ROM is it a sampler? its not a K2600s but how can you load samples from a CD ROM? Thanks, I have far more questions but the Velocity switching issue is very important as I am about to call and offer him $1100. It looks like the synth has been gigged, some paint rubbing off and looks like it has been taken apart a few times. (Its not hellish, but for sure he used it to play live many times) Can I clean the Velocity switching pad? Can I get a new Velocity switching pad installed? Thanks!!!!!!
Re: Velocity switching is not working on one key. Glue and oil? pad? q-tip? not much action on this topic, I took it to the repair shop. Synth repair + holidays + Latin America = ROFLOMGWTFHAHAH weeks and weeks. I had to celebrate the holidays with a 1995 IBM model M keyboard. a fine keyboard at only $5. jay-- wrote: > I'm testing a friends K2600. > > Its got just one key with a Velocity switching issue. > > It don't work! > > Its just quiet, just enough to be noticeable, but it is surely a real > Velocity switching issue. > > He said its a new issue and he has not used the synth in 3 months, > (bought a Yamaha for touring) > > Any way, > > Will a Q-tip fix this? > > I need to act fact. > > I offered him $1100 for the K2600, orchestra card and CD ROM and two > Zip disc's. > > Also, if it has a CD ROM is it a sampler? its not a K2600s but how can > you load samples from a CD ROM? > > Thanks, I have far more questions but the Velocity switching issue is > very important as I am about to call and offer him $1100. > > It looks like the synth has been gigged, some paint rubbing off and > looks like it has been taken apart a few times. > > (Its not hellish, but for sure he used it to play live many times) > > Can I clean the Velocity switching pad? > > Can I get a new Velocity switching pad installed? > > Thanks!!!!!!
Re: Velocity switching is not working on one key. Glue and oil? pad? q-tip? This might not help much but I would try blasting with one of those compressed air cans, maybe the air tube can reach between the keys if they are pushed apart a bit. The electronic part would be nearer the back of the key I would think. by putting a skinny straw or On Sat, 30 Dec 2006 18:57:20 -0800, jay-- wrote: > not much action on this topic, > > I took it to the repair shop. > > Synth repair + holidays + Latin America = ROFLOMGWTFHAHAH weeks and weeks. > > I had to celebrate the holidays with a 1995 IBM model M keyboard. > > a fine keyboard at only $5. > > > > jay-- wrote: >> I'm testing a friends K2600. >> >> Its got just one key with a Velocity switching issue. >> >> It don't work! >> >> Its just quiet, just enough to be noticeable, but it is surely a real >> Velocity switching issue. >> >> He said its a new issue and he has not used the synth in 3 months, >> (bought a Yamaha for touring) >> >> Any way, >> >> Will a Q-tip fix this? >> >> I need to act fact. >> >> I offered him $1100 for the K2600, orchestra card and CD ROM and two Zip >> disc's. >> >> Also, if it has a CD ROM is it a sampler? its not a K2600s but how can >> you load samples from a CD ROM? >> >> Thanks, I have far more questions but the Velocity switching issue is >> very important as I am about to call and offer him $1100. >> >> It looks like the synth has been gigged, some paint rubbing off and >> looks like it has been taken apart a few times. >> >> (Its not hellish, but for sure he used it to play live many times) >> >> Can I clean the Velocity switching pad? >> >> Can I get a new Velocity switching pad installed? >> >> Thanks!!!!!!
