PA3X backup battery

My backup battery needs to be replaced. Where can I get a replacement battery? I've emailed the Korg folks but there has been no reply. Does anyone have any idea of whom I should call or email? I'm in California.

Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike

Firstly I am assuming you are talking about the battery pack and NOT the CR232 clock battery.....

Mine died too - I removed it and in the end decided it wasn't worth the time and money to replace it - the battery pack is pretty crude.
If you really are not bothered by a slower start-up time, then it is fine - BUT if you have a lot of samples to load then it could be a pain - especially if you need to re-start when performing.

Somewhere in the forums, someone put up instructions on how to make the battery pack.

Cheers

Pete
