Noise on some sounds

[simonsezzband]

My triton extreme developed a sort of hiss sound on some patches after I replaced all the tactile switches because some were bad. The noise is on sounds that share some of the same factory rom wavforms. I've tried several times reloading, rechecking my board connections. I even replaced my motherboard and it's still present. The problem is present at all volumes. It's present at both rear outputs and headphones. When you strike a key it plays at the same ratio to volume setting. It decreases along with the patch as it fades out. None of my moss board sounds & wavs are effected at all & they work fine. ANY HELP APPRECIATED

May not fix anything, but some things to try to find where the problem may lie: 1) Remove all sampler memory RAM cards; 2) Turn Audio In potentiometer located at back of keyboard to MIN; 3) Turn Arpeggiator Volume knob down to minimum.

Please look under my username in the search tab above to locate past posts regarding a noise issue I had discovered. There’s a few of them in detail regarding the issue. Of course, I’m not sure if this is the same problem you seem to be having.

At the time, Ian (a very well-respected, kind, helpful, and missed Korg tech guy) in KorgUSA’s support center found out that a TEX 88 in-store at their shop did the same thing (even as I was describing my issue on the phone with him) as he was checking to see on that TEX 88 if he could duplicate the problem (and did). Let us know how it goes, and good luck!

Hello,

I just solved the same problem concerning my Tex.

Some patches sounded distorted (drums ; samples located in the « rom » library).

I solved the problem by cleaning the connectors between the motherboard and the RAM card.

I hope it will help you.

Sorry for my poor English (I’m French).
