Edirol PCR-50 wont output any data for most keyboard keys

Yes people it can be fixed by yourself at home, cheaply and easily. I’ve got an Edirol pcr-80 & prc-a30. Both have had intermittent key troubles and keys that just don’t work anymore or low/high level compared to other keys. These problems seem to start after a year or so. I’ve paid hundreds of dollars getting them fixed until I tried this on a whim. The contacts under the keys are a carbon-based contact so cleaning them with metho/alcohol just dries out this carbon. Some people say cleaning them with a pencil easier helps and it can do slightly but not properly. What you need is “Graphite Powder”. (Link for a picture of a appropriate product – just cut and paste it in your Internet heading bar, or Google image search graphite powder…)

Graphite powder is a dry fine powder that is conductive and perfect for the job. You can purchase at any locksmith – maybe a good hardware store, and it is sold as “non liquid lubricant for locks and machinery.”
All you need to do is unscrew the case, remove the springs that hold the keys in, remove the keys. (White keys first then black keys. Keep in order.) Peel off the rubber strip under the keys and turn over so you can see the little carbon nipples that touch the circuit board. (2 for each key) Pour a little power out on a sheet of paper and use a cotton tip bud to apply a little powder to these. Now apply a little to the carbon contacts on the circuit board where the little nipples touch. Do all this with your midi keyboard plugged in to your computer/synth etc so you can hear how you’re going with getting contact before you put it all back together. You might get a key or two going off when doing this because the graphite power is making a continuous contact across the circuit board. Just blow/lightly wipe away excess to stop this but you want to leave all the contact points evenly (if slightly) coated. Try touching the rubber strip contacts with the circuit board contacts to see if you can get a sound. This can be a bit tricky to line up and get an even contact. This sorts its self out when everything is back together.
Now put back the rubber strip. I used I tiny screwdriver to help push the rubber guide back in the holes on the circuit board. Now put the keys back (black first – with the short springs then white keys with the longer springs) screw the case back together and let me know how you went.
This I think will dry up again in time but if you get a good bit of use out of it you can just do it again… For free…
Garthy.

Edirol pcr 50 dont know how to work

Dont forget that the PCR50 is a Midi controller and as such has no "sound" of its own. You must have Midi compatible player or composer type software (like Reason, Cakewalk, Sonic, etc) to link up to the PCR50 to get any sound.

Windows 7 driver for edirol 2496 pci

I have done some research on this and It would seem that there were never any windows 7 drivers for this Edirol product, However further research has discoverd the information below for a work round also have the same audio card, bought from ebay this year but have recently upgraded to Win7 64bit from XP home. Luckily after tons of googling I found a forum post on another site by a Spanish guy confirming there is a way to use it on Win 7 both 32/64bit version. You need to download M-Audio drivers (as the original Edirol drivers were also made my M-Audio at the time) for their Delta 1010 soundcard (not the LT version) and point win7 to those drivers as they ARE Win7 compatible, I'm using the 'Windows 7 64bit SP1' v6.0.8 drivers. It does actually work, however the guy reckons that the MIDI functions don't but thats no biggy to me. Only other way is to buy a Roland RPC 1 PCI card and replace the original Edirol pci card with that but they are rare and expensive but you don't need to because of the 6.0.8 drivers! I get no audio dropouts and the sound is very nice just like on XP.

Vista is dead, and good riddance. If you want a safe, free, modern operating system, download a nice distro of Linux like Ubuntu, Mint, ZorinOS, Elementary, Solus. Try it on a flash drive or DVD. If you have an old machine, try Lubuntu 32 bit, Puppy or Bodhi. Welcome to the new century.

I need a product key

Have you actually purchased Visio, or are you just trying to get it for free?
As a software guy, I would have to advise against piracy. :)
There are several ways to get Visio for cheap. If you are a student, there are discounted versions available online and in stores. Also, you can check with your school for even cheaper options sometimes. Try the university bookstore if available. Or a Computer Science department maybe.
If you are working, and your company uses MS Office applications, find out if they have the "Microsoft at Home" program. You can get MS Office applications for really cheap that way. I can get Visio through my company's "Microsoft at Home" program for a few dollars.
