Hello!
I´ve just bought a vintage Yamaha DSR-1000 Keyboard.
It´s overall in good shape, but has one significant problem.
There´s a static/white noise comming form all Audio-Outputs while the Keyboard is on. The Sounds/Synth/Rythm ect. works.
This static noise is much too loud. It is the same noise you can hear from any speakers with volume at max.
But here you can hear it very loud, even the Master Volume is at 50%.
It comes to all Audio Outs: AUX-Out, Headphones and even the build in speakers.
I know, a bit of noise is alwasy normal, but not on that loud.
The DSR-1000 has several Volume Controls.
One for the Master Volume and additional ones for Synth-Volume and Rythm Volume.
If you turn the Master Volume up or down, so does the volume of the noise.
But if you turn the other Volume Controls for Synth oder Rythm, the noise does not chance.
And there is one more thing. If you wait about 10-20 seconds, you can hear a short "PLOP" comming throu the audio-out.
Then, the noise is gone...until you hit a key to play a tone. The noise comes back.
Then you can wait again for 10-20 seconds....ect.
Does anyone ever heard of such a thing?
I heard about many things that might cause this problem:
- Old or bad capacitors
- Bad OP-AMP Chips
- Bad DAC Chips
- Bad Reverb Chip
and so on.
By the way. It is not the Power-Supply unit. I´ve testet 2 of them. Both are OK and working (with other Keyboards,too)
