Problem with K2700, searching for advice.
Love the keyboard, I have 2, one to gig with and the other at home. One of the two developed a problem that was ‘repaired’ under warranty. Now is out of warranty and problem recurred.
While playing, random realtime adjustments to the patch happen as evidenced by changes to the sound of the patch and the change is seen in the display window. All of the changes are as if I was making realtime adjustments to either the sliders or the knobs above them located above and to the left of the display, but I am not touching them. So the physical ‘shock’ (and I would say I am an average player, not unusually heavy in touch) of me playing the keyboard is causing something to send message changes to the current sound. It is as if I adjusted the reverb, or attack release, or whatever. Seems that any of the sliders or knobs are involved, so it is not the particular slider or knob. This will now happen multiple times with every song and renders the unit useless, the changes to the sound are often dramatic. It seems random as to what slider or knob is allegedly adjusted. So something is ‘shorting’ either in a ribbon cable or the slider/knob panel of the unit randomly and only related to the shock of playing the board. I can also thumb the keyboard case below the slider panel and get the same thing to happen.
Out of warranty, I am tempted to open it up and reset all of the ribbon cables, but I thought I would post this here for advice.
Thanks.
