M50-88 NEED SERVICE MANUAL PLEASE

Post by krazykatana »

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a service manual for the m50-61 and the m50-88. I too am having a display issue where there is a orange screen, and horizontal lines. There is NO dust, all wires are connected and the screen has been replaced. I am at a loss of what to do.

So no one here has a service manual for the Korg M-50-88 OR the m50-61? And being disconued, how am I suppose to get parts! Korg sends me to partsisparts.com from there website and they don't even offer the parts needed anymore! 65 pound paperweight!

How long have you had the M50?

I think you should just cut your losses, and buy a different brand. The service centres don't want your money, and Korg is not even making spare parts. Though with the cost of that discontinued main board, it would be about time to move on, anyway.

I bought It a year ago bro... this really sucks.... I found out the mainboard was discontinued....BUT they are replacing it with a different mainboard with better capacitors. It still doesn't change they released a infirior part and made us the consumer pay for the new part even though they were the ones that screwed up.
