Members wheresgrant3 Posted August 19, 2009 Members Share Posted August 19, 2009 Last month I scored a Korg RK-100 keytar. It's in decent shape, some scrapes but otherwise structurally sound. I set it up in my studio to make quickly make sure it worked. It seemed fine. Last weekend though I brought it to a gig and hooked it to my V-synth XT and immediately I had midi issues. The V-Synth indicated a Midi compatibility error (?) It wasn't triggering any data. When I looked down at the RK-100 the LED lights were flashing through all the pattern and bank indicators. I swapped out batteries... and the problem just continued. Any ideas what could be causing this all of the sudden to crap out? Or did I just get taken for $225 dollars.

Members TropicThink Posted August 19, 2009 Members Share Posted August 19, 2009 225 dollars seems a lot. I have one, paid 150 for mine in 1993, and still feel like I've been had... Are they supposed to be velocity sensitive? If so, then I've really been had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wheresgrant3 Posted August 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 19, 2009 Not Velocity sensitive. I don't mind paying $225 ... if the thing works properly. After all AX-1's and AX-7's are listing for $500+. I just theen this for one or two songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members galaxyhunter2 Posted February 3, 2014 Members Share Posted February 3, 2014 Hi, WHERESGRANT3, can you answer my question regarding the MIDI problem of your RK 100, please? Replacing of some IC's did not get anything so far in my case.Were you able to repair your own RK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
