My friend owns a Minilogue, and she says it's been out of tune for months. She had carried it a bit in the rain last September. She didn't power it on until it was completely dry 24 hours later. Still, she wonders if that might have anything to do with the tuning issue. Has anyone else encountered a chronic tuning issue?
Thank you in advance for any replies.

Re: Minilogue Out Of Tune: Water Damage?
Carried it a bit in the rain? What exactly does that mean? Was it from the car to the house during a light rain, or did she carry the unit in a heavy downpour and had quite a distance to walk?PlasticLoveDoll wrote:My friend owns a Minilogue, and she says it's been out of tune for months.

I cannot see how a light rain might cause issues if it was quickly transported from a car to a house in a short distance - unless, a strategically aimed raindrop(s) somehow got inside.
Has your friend performed the manual tuning function? It is in the System Menu and can be done at any time one wishes.
It sounds like there may be more to this story and you/we are not getting all of the information. It could be that the unit needs to be sent in for repair, but until the manual tuning function is performed and then tested, one cannot be sure.
