Members kazper Posted November 11, 2006 Members Share Posted November 11, 2006 Looks like you unlocked the tempo synced included version of Pong! Be happy you unlocked the Easter egg.. Nevertheless, on a serious note:Sorry to see your LCD is busted. My Mpc4000 screen has the same thing but I can just look around it. Interested in what the cost for the LCD screen is though.

I'm about to cry.... The problem might not be as bad as you think..my Wavestation had a similar problem but all it was was that the lcd panel wasnt tight with the rubber inside the actual lcd display itself... after I reseated it all was fine. Try pushing the LCD screen and see if it makes any difference before opening it up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members daFunkyUnit Posted November 12, 2006 Author Members Share Posted November 12, 2006 the problem is not the LCD, the LCD works fine. the problem is that it doesnt boot up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cbentley Posted November 12, 2006 Members Share Posted November 12, 2006 I feel your pain. I bought one two weeks ago and as of last night it won't load past the Elektron splash screen. Everything on the unit passes the self test but it simply won't boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members daFunkyUnit Posted December 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted December 14, 2006 hooray, i got my MD-UW back from Sweden today! so far everything is honky-dory! apparently, there was something wrong with the CPU card, so that had to be replaced. Jon, the Elektron tech, was super nice, although I still had to pay for the repair as my warranty ran out, but I was charged half price, which was cool. well, the moral of the story is: you definitely get what you pay for.

Members syncretism Posted December 14, 2006 Members Share Posted December 14, 2006 I've had the MD for two and a half years or so, and I have never seen Elvis. I feel very left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letsee: Used MD: $900MD to UW upgrade: $500Shipping for upgrade: $100Sub Total: $1500 so i saved a few Benjamins on a MD-UW right?... or did I??? Shipping for repair: $100Repair cost: $150 Total cost of MD-UW: $1750. guess I shouldve bought a spankin' new MD-UW to begin with.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
