    Hi... Where can you source a replacement plastic moulding (the one you removed @ 5:36).. I have a similar problem and can not seem to source a replacement?

    • @snowkingcro

      Hi. Those parts were available at Korg Parts at www.partsisparts.net/catalog/korg-parts
      But the keyboard is now old, so the part may be discontinued...

    I had a TR76 and I ended up chucking it in the bin after 10 years of intermittent playing and repairing the buttons all the while. Very poor build quality and like this one, the buttons broke on the pads. Shame cos it was great otherwise. Even Korg UK tech guy admitted to me that the 01/w type of button was much more reliable -that's why they are still working today without being stripped down once! Thanks for posting though.

    • @snowkingcro

      well, yest, the 01/W is indeed a great machine!
      The TR is what it is - a cheap Triton, although, a good synth.
      Thanks on your comment, cheers

    Thanks. Having same problem of non-responsive buttons with Karma. I think it will be more or less same components like in your TR. Can same be done with rotary encoder, sliders and pots too?

    • @snowkingcro
      @snowkingcro  5 років тому +1

      If the rotary encoders are too loose, it won't help much, otherwise, cleaning them with contact spray will revive them! 👍

    • @MrLeo3D
      @MrLeo3D 5 років тому

      Thanks again for your reply. The rotatry encoder/dial is not much loose but sometimes jumps more than one increment. Tempo pot somewhat wobbles but its output is ok.

    Oh wow that's insane I literally have the same problem. Is there a way we can talk privacy. I would love to have you repair this for me as well!

    • @snowkingcro
      @snowkingcro  4 роки тому

      Well, i had this synth about two years ago... and also, i'm in Croatia, so it could be a major problem to repair it for you... But, if you have some questions, i will try my best to help you.

  • @Alienor-music
    @Alienor-music 5 років тому +1

    Nice video, thanks! A (dumb😉) beginners question: that contact spray has to dry up before re-assembling or did you wipe it away?

    • @snowkingcro
      @snowkingcro  5 років тому +1

      You don't need to wipe it away, only if you used too much, to prevent drops.
      This is an oil contact spray, it always stays wet. And it is better than dry because it repells watter and dust from contacts!
