My Microkorg XL suddenly have noisy and buzzing output. Anyone know the solution for this kind of problem?

Noisy and buzzing sound are confirmed when I switch to Lead/keyboard category. On Bass category, no problem at all.

Try reseat audio jack board, still no effect. What should I do?

Check that the Audio Input sensitivity is not set too high. If the Audio In Line or XLR input is not being used, the level controls on the rear panel should be set to Line and to minimum sensitivity. Quite a few lead type sounds will use high gain, especially for distortion effect, and probably a Compressor effect, and these will tend to exaggerate any noise being picked up from the Audio In.
