I have three outputs stopped working (5,6 and 8) Is that fixable? Anyone else have that problem?

So very, very helpful! Just inslalled my Gotek from CP Magnetic. Worked perfectly. Now I'll be a little (but only a little) less scared about re[placing the backlight.

Great tutorial! Would you be able to tell me if the lcd idc plug has an orientation key?

Hi I wanted to ask how to make a back up copy of the system disk .

Just installing a new drive on my W30, this video has been a great help, many many thanks. 👍

Just finished this task. So glad I stumbled on this excellent post. My W-30 has been sidelined for years with a cracked and bleeding display. The black blob covered approximately 40% of the screen. And whenever I tried to locate a replacement display I either found replacement back lights or rather tres cher LCD replacements. I followed your instructions and even watched the video multiple times to ensure success. The display took so long to arrive that I had to refresh my knowledge all over again. The only disappointment was the display is rather dim. It's OK in the light of day, but in a dark room it requires some external lighting to be seen clearly. But the fact that I was able to restore the unit to a useful - yet outdated - piece of gear, is extremely rewarding. Thank you so much for the effort and time you invested here.

This has been really useful, thank you

blue light is also a good compromission for that refresh screen op!!!!!!

Are you doing this without disk? Just the unit alone? Thanks.

Thanks, this is excellent

I am planning to do very soon this upgrade. Great and thanks for the video.

Very helpful indeed. 29 new switches here with your help.

Thanks for doing these tutorials. Replacing all 29 tact switches now and having installed a modern display I can no longer decouple the panel board. Soldering in place.

I just bought one of these in good condition and a whole case of extra sound disks, display is too dim too read from a distance so needing to do this this tear-down to replace it with a modern LED one and kill the need for a whining backlight circuit. It's such a good, well made, no frills, punchy sounding keyboard and very technical manual - there's a learning curve with this thing and if you got talent you can write some great music. They've been lasting 30 years plus barring the display, although for nearly £1,600 (a lot of money back then) it bloody should. Classic bit of hardware.

Thank you for this video Very Helpful 👍

How are your experiences with replacing the whole LCD module with a modern LED backlight thing?

I have the exact same yellow wire soldered from the chip exactly as yours is , have you any idea what it does. Some people on a W30 facebook group seem to think that this could be a last minute factory line fix ? thanks.

tip for the cigarette burns, use a very fine emery paper and rub the key down, I did every key of mine before washing them, it does obviously take the shine off, but they look far better.

damn I wish i had of watched this to the end, I manually pushed the big rubbers back in without a small screwdriver lol , also had to refer back to see which size of springs fit which colour keys... :)

Thanks for documenting this, i have just took my W30 out of the loft after over 25 years and it powered up 100%, even my old songs still played from my floppys. I had 1 dead key so had to follow your procedure just to get at it to clean the contacts. It has always had a higher pitch whining sound coming from inside, I cant quite pinpoint it, I'm not sure if it is the floppy drive , but it sounds like its nearer to the other side, maybe closer to where the soundboard is located. Does anyone have any idea what it could be? thanks

Thanks for this. Been in my 2 one to change tacts and the other to add gotek. One has a whine noise which one day I need to look at. The other crashes if more than seven keys are pressed simultaneous. I’m thinking of switching parts to make one good one. This upload will be of great help. Cheers.

Looks like a blast,what was the blue buggy? At the 1 minute mark he passes you and then we never see him again,did he leave you that far behind in the dust?

have you ever flipped it ?

What is that filmed with?

Hi i just bought datalink for my wkm 550 hex, would you mind telling me aprox what height 1 key take off does it raise to using ipad, im guessing height is not adjustable for that? Also i am a little scared to test it for real and have only got as far as running simulation mode indoors and with that i cant get it to land sticks at .2 of a meter above ground. Thanks michael cambridgeshire UK

that's a really smooth flight! is it possible to fly towards a way point facing sideways? can you orient the front of the quad to a fixed gps point while navigating the course? I want to get one for my next documentary project, where did you buy it?
