Spare parts for Nautilus?

Post by Donethur »

Hi I was wondering where I can buy spare parts. For example one key of mine got some plastic broken. It is cosmetic only and very small but if I sell this thing one day, I don’t want this affecting the price of the product. And just in case, I would like to have this replacement, one never knows. Is there a place where to buy 1 key, for example?. Thanks!.

Which keyboard version is this for? If it is the RH3 88-key, the keys are widely available e.g:

Hi no, It is the 61 keys version. Do you know if this kind of keys are somewhere in the market?.

Thanks!

Here is one source:

Or find your national service centres to do the repair for you e.g:

Thanks. It is interesting that it is separated by note, A, B, C, etc. Will get one :). One last doubt, is the keybed/keys of the Kronos 61 different than the one of the Nautilus?. I read somewhere else that it is the same, is this correct?. I trust more in you guys thats why I ask here better.

There are several different shapes for the keys. The black keys are all the same. For the white keys, C and F are common, as are E and B, but A, D, and E keys only fit in those respective places, plus there is an upper C key, with straight sides. Looking at the white "A" key, the Korg part number 500422008852 is shared by the Nautilus and Kronos, on different supplier's websites, so it would seem reasonable to assume that the keys are the same. It is only the complete Kronos and Nautilus keybeds that differ, in aftertouch provision and key range.

Oh yes I noticed this, but what is curious to me is that it is more than what is evident, for example G and A look the same from the user perspective, but they are sold separately because they have actually differences it seems. Thats curious :)

thanks a lot for your help mate!
