 |
|
Hi, friends.
I purchased a 2nd hand Karma V2 Workstation with EXB-PCM08 board installed. The keyboard is working 100%, but the expansion don´t.
I tried to change the EXB from slot 2 to 1 and vice-versa. Nothing changed. The board is not working.
I perceived that EXB-PCM08 is not showed in Karma display when it´s turned on. When editing some program, the samples from EXB are not listed. So, I think this expansion board is damaged. 
Anyone have some idea?
Thanks in advance! |

Just a couple of things to try...
Make sure OS 2 is installed
Try cleaning the EXB contacts very carefully. I would obtain some advice regarding how to do this (e.g. from a computer service centre) - there are substances/cleaners that can be safely used (usually some form of alcohol like Isopropyl Alcohol) - HOWEVER PLEASE GET SOME ADVICE FIRST - it may be that the contacts are a little dirty or greasy.
Hope you get it solved
In the mean time, enjoy the marvellous Karma
Cheers

Thanks for your reply, karmathanever.
1) The OS is already 2.0.0.
2) I followed your instructions, but unsuccessfully. The contacts of the board and the slots are totally clean, but even so, the card is not recognized by the keyboard. I think that is really damaged. 
Anyway, thank you. |

Would your local Korg retailer let you try another EXB board so at least you can know if it is the Karma or the board that is faulty???
Just a thought..
Good luck

The expansion did not work.
The solution was to return the card to the seller.
Thx. |

Yes. The problem is resolved.
I will not use expansions in Karma.
The keyboard works perfectly by itself.
Happy new year! |
