Triton LE: Pitchbend does not work anymore....

[JayT]

Hi,

I don't know why the pitchbend (joystick x/-x) doesn't work anymore.
I have got a Korg Triton LE with Sampling Expansion.
Some weeks ago it worked and it doesn't seem to be mechanically damaged.

I 've read the manual and tried some things (like program pitch edit...).
Is there somewhere a "pitchbend" off global config or somethings like that?

best regards. Johnny.

I think there have been ongoing issues with a wire coming loose on the Triton series joysticks.
That may not be your problem, but if it is, sadly, service will be required to resolder the wire, but either way you should make arrangements to have it serviced.
Best of luck.

Thanks!

Since i'm a bit experienced regarding electronic devices i opened the triton le myself. The broken yellow wire was easy to find and fix.
Now it works again.
I wonder why they use such a thin wire in that position.

best regards. Johnny.

The same reason they put thin plastic buttons, so they could be broken and you have to pay for replacement. It's true when they say: They don't make them as they used to...

Good thing is that some of us have the knowledge to fix things by ourselves

Fantastic!
Glad it was an easy fix for you, I wish the cranky buttons on my Karma were that easy to fix!
