|
|
I just got the Korg parts needed to change my D510mo motherboard to the Kronos X D525mw.
Parts needed besides the D525mw motherboard (with right BIOS and Ram, see below from when I upgraded the bios):
Partlist:
- New harness for power supply
- Different side panel (not sure why)
- KLM-3008 (for D525mw (kronos x)) the small circled circuit board
(Ignore the joystick I need to replace that too).
Question is, all the KLM-boards in the picture are for Kronos X. Are they identical to my original Kronos, or should I spend then time replacing them too?
KLM-3005/6/8/9 if the sticker is unclear in the picture. |

I vaguely recall you might need the heat sink to go with the D525. _________________ Kronos 88. MODX8

I think there's no need to replace them :/ _________________ I'm Tech and Quotes expert |

I was thinking this, too. Unless the original MB went bad, there is no advantage to swapping out.
Even though the MB was ‘improved” from original to X and to 2, the Kronos OS doesn’t take advantage of any increased power or speed. I have an original and I have a Kronos 2. There is no difference in performance. For whatever reason, Korg chose not to take advantage. I suppose it has to do with keeping the experience the same on all models. _________________ Kronos 2 88, Kronos Classic 73, PX-5S, Kronos 2 61, Roli Seaboard Rise 49 |

Where do you get the BIOS for the D525MW? |

Just tried to swap out my D510 (original motherboard) with a D525MW and the Kronos just blinks on the off in a loop when powered on using the D525MW, I didn’t install any of the upgrade parts listed by the OP. I suspect
you may need to just install the KLM-3008 boot support board..?
Anyone else have input on this to get my D525MW working with my K1 73? |

Hi. With the D525mv do you have to use the klm3008? A repair shop installed it beside a KLM 3002 and it will not boot and only worked a week.
Thanks
