sv1 problems/storage/preventative maintenance

Post by corneliusszotak »

So I have read a lot of stories about people having problems with the Keybed after storing it upright. And even more problems where the Keys will just suddenly have dead keys, noise, and other things of that nature. most of these reviews were from 2010 ish, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF KORG SORTED ANY OF THESE ISSUES SINCE THEN. I just bought a brand new black 73 and I'm concerned about how to store it. If it is upright will I get to a gig and the keyboard not work?

My SV-1 spends quite a bit of time between gigs in it's bag, standing on the back with keys upright. Never had a problem (touch wood!)

Thanks for responding. I was actually referring to upright as in standing on its end though. Does with the keyboard being perpendicular with the ground. Is it safe to store it this way?
