Posted: Tue Oct 06, 2009 7:22 pm Post subject: Loss of all patches ? |
|
|
Hi,
I have just bought a korg triton rack from Ebay.When it arrived I booted it up and all the patches were initialised.
i.e all the combos were "initial combo 0000! etc.
I downloaded the preload discs from Korg and loaded them into the rack and booted it up, all the sounds were there!!
However, I am worried that they may disappear again, and leave me with a useless rack, and empty bank account.
I emailed the seller and he said he hadn't used it for 6 years.Is it possible that it could have leaked it's memory over the 6 years?
Could it be that the korg triton rack has battery backed memory and the battery may be flat?
Many thanks for any help you can give.
Paul |

Well, this is an old post. Did you figure it out? Sounded like the battery needed to be replaced. _________________ Gear:

battery? what battery?
The seller probably just wiped the patches before shipping it. When I was about to sell my Triton, I reloaded the factory disks just to make sure my custom patches weren't on there. _________________ Current Korg Gear: KRONOS 88 (4GB), M50-73 (PS mod), RADIAS-73, Electribe MX, Triton Pro (MOSS, SCSI, CF, 64MB RAM), SQ-64, DVP-1, MEX-8000, MR-1, KAOSSilator, nanoKey, nanoKontrol, 3x nanoPad 2, 3x DS1H, 7x PS1, FC7 (yes Korg, NOT Yamaha). |

Not being the owner of a Triton Rack, I didn't realize there was no battery. Seems like most synths etc have a battery to be able to retain your patches, etc when powered down.
My Kurzweil has one, My effects processors have them.
Wouldn't the factory settings still be there? _________________ Gear:

Its definately a battery issue, sometimes this can be solved by simply leaving the synth on for a few hours, or just oen the sucker up and find the battery, more then likely is a CR2032 coin size battery!
its no biggy, just dont spent 200 dollars to fix it if you dont gotta _________________
